Twenty years later, George Foss is still obsessed with his first love. I get it – he is nearing forty and has built a solid, quiet and utterly boring life. His college girlfriend Liana is all bright colors and excitement and probably a murderer. Despite everything he knows about her, he is easily ensnared in her dangerous game of sex and lies from which he may not be able to escape unscathed.
They say the Santa Fe Saint comes to save your soul—by taking your life.
Newly minted psychiatrist Faith Clancy gets the shock of her life when her first patient confesses to the grisly Saint murders. By law she’s compelled to notify the authorities, but is her patient really The Saint? Or will she contribute to more death by turning the wrong man over to the police?
There are actually three different mysteries presented in The Sound of Broken Glass, but they all blend together seamlessly. The main one, of course, is the case of a respected barrister who is found naked, bound and apparently strangled in a basement hotel room. Was it murder or an accident? Detective Inspector Gemma James and her team must follow some seemingly unrelated leads to discover what really happened that night. Our second mystery revolves around thirteen year old Andy and his next door neighbor Nadine…
Today we’re excited to feature a guest post from Ian Sansom, author of The Norfolk Mystery.
You’ll probably want to know some background and stuff, yes? Who I am, where I’m from. That sort of thing?
Really?
Well, it’s just the usual. Birth. School. Work. And … Well. Not yet. Not quite.
Where am I from? By county, and by country: out of London, through Essex, into Gloucestershire, Cambridgeshire, County Antrim, France, Switzerland, back to London, Oxfordshire, back to London, County Down, Warwickshire. So, in summary: England-Ireland-France-Switzerland-England-Ireland-England. Does that help?

I have to say the Prologue is one of the best I’ve read in quite a while and the shock value alone is enough to quickly propel you through many chapters while searching for answers to your questions. I mean, what kind of purely evil person would ever want to do such a thing to the truest, bravest, most honorable men of our armed forces? Because as soon as you read it, you know that wasn’t something these men signed up for, or were ever trained to do, or could ever believe in.
Which means somebody did this to them. And that person absolutely must be stopped.
Mitch Rapp is back!
The last two Rapp Series books went back in time to show us how Mitch Rapp became the meanest, toughest, baddest CIA Counter-terrorist Operative ever. American Assassin set the stage and showed us the whole selection and training process and gave us just the right amounts of insight into his psyche. The second prequel, Kill Shot, was a great action thriller and showed us more about Rapp’s development history.
With The Last Man, we are back to a modern-day setting in Afghanistan, where a CIA agent has gone missing.
Whiplash River by Lou Berney, although a sequel to Gutshot Straight, stands on its own. The main character, Shake, while losing the peace of mind he has worked hard to create becomes inevitably intertwined with an interesting cast of characters.
In the midst of his life literally hanging in the balance, he tries to resurrect an old flame, solve the enigma that is Harrigan Quinn who he begrudgingly partners up with, and dig himself out of the hole that is sure to consume him.
