MY THOUGHTS AND BOOK REVIEW

Detective Mark Turpin of Thames police is called to a crime scene late on a Friday afternoon where he finds a man dead, his face bubble wrapped in a plastic sheet. The victim is suspected to be Trent Jardel who was found at his office desk killed. However, the investigation quickly escalates.

Tracing the victim's last movements leads Mark to a rented property by Jared in the Oxfordshire countryside with his constable collegue Mr West. Inside the property, he discovers a far more horrific scene: another body, butchered and left to decompose. There they get to find a third mystery victim too. This discovery immediately throws the case into high gear, signaling a killer far more dangerous than initially suspected. 

This cold case "The Hollow Man" seems to be classic of its kind leaving the reader with a suspenseful mind. The two murders are done differently which leaves the case complex and at the edge of your seat. The killer has left not much evidences in the crime scene and even have escaped the police procedures and left the forensic team wondering in puzzle. The author Amphlett creates tension at well developed pace with variety of characters in the novel. 

The Hollow Man is a suspense thriller murder mystery for Crime fans who loves police procedures and forensic investigations, that test detective Turpins intelligence and courage to sove the case.

BOOK ON TOUR #AFTER PEARL #HISTORICAL CRIME FICTION #SANTA FE WRITERS PROJECT PUBLISHERS #BOOK REVIEW #STEPHEN G EOANNOU

  MY THOUGHTS AND REVIEW After Pearl is a captivating historical mystery set in 1942, during the turbulent months following the attack on Pearl Harbor. The novel follows Nicholas Bishop, an alcoholic private investigator and shell-shocked WWI veteran, who wakes up in a seedy hotel room with a hangover, a foggy memory, and two bullets missing from his revolver. Worse still, lounge singer Pearl DuGaye is dead, and Bishop is the prime suspect. As he stumbles through a haze of forgotten days, Bishop—assisted by the sharp and capable Gia Alessi, a loyal sidekick who may or may not still be on his payroll—dives into a web of deceit and danger. His investigation leads him through Buffalo’s underworld, rubbing shoulders with crooked politicians, high-society elites, and an underground group of American Nazis. All the while, he’s haunted by flashbacks from the Great War and shadowed by a one-eyed dog named Jake. The pacing is tight and energetic. The mystery unfolds gradually but never drag...

MY THOUGHTS AND BOOK REVIEW  RG Belsky and Bonnie Traymore in their new novel SWIPE has put together all the troubles those dating apps or online dating can bring. Especially to anyone looking for love in the wrong places. This story has looked in depth at the unsuspected danger, risk, threat and guilt that comes to married people who think it's casual or normal that they can cheat their spouses behind their back. It's very evident that they are lonely, desperate or unhappy in their lives or relationships.  Jake, a Journalist at New York Banner is hellbent to prove the mysterious death of Matt Furman. Matt a hiker and a married man who dated women online behind his wife and children's back ended up falling down accidently to the Hudson river. Was Matt's death a tragic accident or murder? The irony is that Matt was dating Sonya online. Sonya disliked Matt at their first encounter at the Palisade trail. Jake who covers stories desires to know why Matt committed infidelity...
