Book Recommendation - Broker of Lies

 

When it comes to genres, my first love is suspense. I enjoy the thrill of a good edge-of-your-seat suspense novel. During the pandemic, suspense novels increased my anxiety and I put them on the back burner for a bit, but I've noticed my appetite for a good thriller is back, so I was so excited that Steven James is starting a new series this year. James is one my favorites, a go-to suspense author that I will read everything and know that it will be good. This new series is off to a stellar start with Broker of Lies and I can't wait to see what happens next! Here's a bit about the book:

The man who knows all our secrets has a secret of his own.

When Travis Brock, a high-level Pentagon redactor with an eidetic memory, finds a clue to solving the tragic arson that took his wife from him, he risks everything to find the truth--and chances losing himself in the process.

With a terror attack looming on the horizon and a pair of assassins on his tail, Brock drops off the grid and joins forces with a disavowed Homeland Security operative. Together they race to stop the attack before Brock is neutralized by the people he trusts the most.

From critically acclaimed, bestselling novelist Steven James comes a smart, wire-tight, and emotionally resonant thriller that asks just how far across the line we might go to see justice carried out.


This book releases April 11, 2023 wherever books are sold. Be sure to check it out! For additional information, check out the following links:

Book Recommendation - The Curse of Misty Wayfair

Image
My very first read of 2019 was this super-creepy dual timeline novel, The Curse of Misty Wayfair by Jaime Jo Wright. I discovered Ms. Wright at the beginning of 2018 when I found her debut novel, The House on Foster Hill, and LOVED it. Later in the year, she released The Reckoning at Gossamer Pond, which I also thoroughly enjoyed. Though this one spooked me the most (I had ghostly dreams a time or two while reading this one), I think this is the best one yet! This book goes back and forth between Thea in 1908 and Heidi in present day. Both are on a quest to find themselves and for both of them, their quest has brought them to the small town of Pleasant Valley, WI. There is a curse that supposedly haunts the woods, and both characters in their respective timelines are drawn into the curse and what it means for them. In their quests, both of them also come face to face with their Creator. Here's the back-cover blurb for those interested in learning more about the story line:

Book Recommendation - Voice of the Ancient

Image
  Connilyn Cossette is one of the best writers in the arena of Biblical historical fiction. With her words, she brings the old testament world to life and pulls the reader to see it through new eyes. Her upcoming novel, Voice of the Ancient, takes place during the time of Samuel, when Israel clamored for a king. I really enjoyed her take on what Israel was like during that time and absolutely adored the characters of Avidan and Keziah. Here's a bit about the book: As the eldest son of a Levite and a Philistine, Avidan is torn between his duty to his family legacy and the desire for something more. When Ammonites attack the city of Yavash-Gilead, he takes the opportunity to fight with his cousins for the newly crowned King Saul. But when one of the cousins goes missing during the battle, Avidan stays behind to search for him in hopes that he's still alive. Keziah is the daughter of one of the most powerful clan chiefs in the territory of Manasseh. On the brink of a forced marria
