Deadly Codes by JP O’Donnell

Deadly Code revolves around private investigator, Gallagher. He is torn between finding a new career to ease his new bride’s mind and continuing to do what is in his blood, investigating. This book reminded me of the classic private detective stories but with modern twists. When asked to look into the death of a woman’s sisters, Gallagher will discover things are never what they seem. A fast paced non-stop action ride with superbly written characters. Four out of five stars.

The Life O’Reilly by Brian Cohen

Nick O’Reilly is a successful attorney, enjoying all the perks that life has to offer. When his firm starts doing pro bono work to improve their image, he gets a case that will change how he looks at life. The case is a young mother, Dawn, and her son trying to find refuge and protection from her abusive husband. In this gripping legal drama, Nick will discover what is really important in life and an unexpected love. The characters and plot are so well written by Cohen, he takes you on the gamut of emotions and then he leaves you believing in the goodness in mankind and the power of love. Five out of five stars.

The Liberation of Henry Belmont by Steve Godofsky

The Liberation of Henry Belmont is one of those short books that packs the punch of a 600 page epic novel. Reading this, I was reminded of those movies where multiple stories are told, then the story brings them all together. The story reminds you that everything we do affects so many others that we are not aware of. The expertly written characters are real; you get to see all sides of human nature. 4.5 out of five stars.

The Chimera Seed by Matthew Tully

What would you do if you had discovered and controlled the fountain of youth? That is the question Michael must face when he inherits his father’s business. With twists that could have come straight from current headlines, Tully has created an action packed tale full of intriguing characters and impressive scientific data. This is a scientific political thriller at its best. Tully gives you tons of details, yet never lets it interfere with the energy of the plot. This book is sometimes graphic, sometimes gritty but with an underlying dose of realism. You won’t be able to put it down. Five out of five stars.
