The Paris Betrayal by James R Hannibal | Mystery & Suspense Review

The Paris Betrayal

James R Hannibal

Mystery & Suspense

After a rough mission in Rome involving the discovery of a devastating bioweapon, Company spy Ben Calix returns to Paris to find his perfectly ordered world has collapsed. A sniper attack. An ambush. A call for help that brings French SWAT forces down on his head. Ben is out. This is a severance--reserved for incompetents and traitors.

Searching for answers and anticipating a coming attack, Ben and a woman swept up in his misfortunes must travel across Europe to find the sniper who tried to kill him, the medic who saved his life, the schoolmaster who trained him, and an upstart hacker from his former team. More than that, Ben must come to grips with his own insignificance as the Company's plan to stop Leviathan from unleashing the bioweapon at any cost moves forward without him--and he struggles against the infection that is swiftly claiming territory within his own body.

Award-winning author James R. Hannibal ratchets up the tension on every page of this suspenseful new thriller.

My Thoughts

If espionage and burned spies are your thing, then this is the book for you. Ben Calix is that burned spy. The problem is that he doesn't realize it until it is too late. If something can go wrong it's going to. Every step of the way Ben is thwarted in his attempts to clear his name and return to good graces with the Company.

But why? What has Ben done to deserve this? That my friend is kept a mystery until the very end. It is a mystery that the reader isn't privy to, which makes the suspense become almost unbearable. I loved it! I stayed up way too late reading it because I just needed one more chapter. Then of course that chapter led into another chapter and another chapter. My advice, let this be a Friday night read when you have nothing urgent on Saturday.

Present Danger 

Rocky Mountain Courage #1

Elizabeth Goddard

Hidden crimes. Open threats. Long-buried secrets.
They'll be fighting for the truth--and their lives.

Former FBI Special Agent Jack Tanner is working as a detective in Montana when he comes across a body in the national forest during a search and rescue mission. He's committed to finding the killer, even if it means working alongside his old flame, US Forest Service Special Agent Terra Connors.

When Terra discovers that the murder victim had ties to a powerful and dangerous trafficker of archaeological artifacts, the investigation takes a deadly turn--one that hits too close to home. As Terra fears she lacks the courage to face what comes next, Jack is more determined than ever to protect her. But he's failed her before.

If he fails this time, it will cost them far more than just their hearts.

Death and a Crocodile by Lisa Betz | Historical Fiction Review

Death and a Crocodile

Lisa Betz

Historical Fiction

Sensible women don't investigate murders, but Livia Aemilia might not have a choice.

Rome, 47 AD. When Livia's father dies under suspicious circumstances, she sets out to find the killer before her innocent brother is convicted of murder. She may be an amateur when it comes to hunting dangerous criminals, but she's determined, intelligent, and not afraid to break a convention or two in pursuit of the truth. Plus, she's adopted a radical new faith that encourages her to believe a woman and a handful of servants can actually solve a murder.

Can she uncover the culprit before powerful men realize what she's up to and force her to stop? Or will her snooping land her in deadly peril?

A lighthearted historical mystery set in first-century Rome, featuring a feisty amateur sleuth, a cast of eccentric characters, and an unrepentant, sausage-snatching cat.

My Thoughts

This was such an interesting story. I think I can safely say that I've never read anything quite like it. Lisa Betz has given us a unique tale that leaves me wanting to read more.

I read a lot of historical fiction and biblical fiction so the timeframe wasn't new to me but the subject matter was so original.
