If you enjoy thrillers, you will not be disappointed by Thick as Thieves. Ledge and Arden’s relationship was more like the cherry on top rather than the main scoop of ice cream, but I didn’t mind this one bit as the story was suspenseful and filled with dynamic characters and slowly-revealed secrets.

Made of Steel — Ivy Smoak
I knew exactly what I was expecting when I picked up Made of Steel, but what I got blew my expectations out of the water. I started reading this book at around 9 pm and didn’t put it down until I finished. Absolutely 5-star worthy.
Saint Justice — Mike Grist
Ex-CIA agent Cristopher Wren stumbles upon a warehouse in the boondocks of Utah stockpiled with baby formula, multi-vitamins, and sets of adult-sized clothing – everything you need to keep a human alive. He also finds a massive cage. A cage this size is only built for one purpose. Humans. With on-point metaphors, suspenseful action scenes, and psychological twists, Saint Justice fully deserves a 5-star rating and will not disappoint.
Shamus Dust: Hard Winter, Cold War, Cool Murder — Janet Roger
I was hooked almost immediately and loved following Newman as he unraveled the mystery. I have the utmost appreciation for Roger’s writing; I could almost feel the level of attention that was given to each sentence, and it did not disappoint. Readers of mystery and crime will love this post-WWII, extremely rewarding murder mystery
Blanket Immunity — Adam Van Susteren
Well-written, with unpredictable plot twists and an engaging story, Blanket Immunity far exceeded my expectations of a legal thriller and captivated me from start to finish. This is absolutely not a book filled with dry legalese; this book is an exciting crime/thriller novel, told through the eyes of a criminal defense lawyer.
Devil in False Colors — Jack Winnick
Devil in False Colors begins with a brutal attack on a Jewish pre-school in Orange County, California. Jack Winnick has provided readers with a fictional, but terrifyingly realistic, novel that draws on extremely relevant topics in today’s media. His daring plotline and look into the minds of radical terrorists had me not wanting to put the book down. I recommend this book to those who enjoy political thrillers, crime, and action.
