USA Today and Amazon #1 Bestseller M. L. “Matt” Buchman started writing on a flight south from Japan to ride his bicycle across the Australian Outback. Just part of a solo around-the-world trip that ultimately launched his writing career.
From the very beginning, his powerful female heroines insisted on putting character first, then a great adventure. He’s since written over 60 action-adventure thrillers and military romantic suspense novels. And just for the fun of it: 100 short stories, and a fast-growing pile of read-by-author audiobooks.
Booklist says: 3x “Top 10 of the Year.” PW says: “Tom Clancy fans open to a strong female lead will clamor for more.” His fans say: “I want more now…of everything.” That his characters are even more insistent than his fans is a hoot. As a 30-year project manager with a geophysics degree who has designed and built houses, flown and jumped out of planes, and solo-sailed a 50’ ketch, he is awed by what is possible.

Started with a sexual situation and it gets worse. Slogged thru hoping it’d get on with it but stopped at 1/2 of 1st novel. Just couldn’t accept punishment for not committing a crime. Main interest is an autistic main character, who acts more like Asberger dx.
I liked all three books. Mirada is a smart and savvy bran investigator. Her team is a bunch of characters, a!so very smart. Parts of the plot are unbelievable but for into the writers world. NTSB procedures sound pretty accurate.
It is an intense suspense thriller, with a slow build and unexpected events around every corner. An excellent read for the military aviator enthusiast, the suspense junky, and advocates of strong women. Bravo!
