As most of my readers now know, James Patterson is my favorite author!

I have most of his novels and enjoy going back and rereading several times!

The 9th Judgment did not disappoint.

This sometimes spine-tingling, fast-paced, heart-rendering novel is a another Women’s Murder Club hit!

Having daughters and a daughter-in-law remind me too quickly what can happen to them and my grandchildren if a maniacal killer reared their ugly head in our area.

This particular book seemed too delve more deeply into the private lives and feelings of the “club.” Especially Detective Lindsay Boxer since she has a fiance now and is experiencing the many sides of giving and taking in a martial relationship as they are living together.

There are actually two cases of murder that Rich and Lindsay are investigating the “the Lipstick Killer”, and the other involves a cat burglar nicknamed “Hello Kitty” which also involves the murder of  a famous actor’s wife.

As always I never reveal to much, but I can attest to reading the entire book in about 4 hours! Could not put this one down!

Thanks again James Patterson! A must get for yourself! The 9th Judgment!

I am also presently reading “Standard of Honor” by Jack Whyte and “The Assassin” by Stephen Coonts.

Be sure and read a fiction book today!

This is going to be great!

One of my favorite authors!

One of my favorite novels!

Made into a movie! Wow!

Best part is Mr. Follett had a hand in everything, so I know this will be a fantastic watch!

What a great cast including one of the all time greats, Donald Sutherland!

Of course my experience has been the book is always better that the movie, but knowing Ken, this will be great!

On Ken’s blog he writes: “The average lifespan of a man or woman in the Middle Ages was much shorter than today, and they started to act as adults when we in the 21st century would still consider them children. That short span gave immediacy to the experiences of life, especially during outbursts of violence like “The Anarchy,” Stephen and Maud’s brutal and protracted civil war.”

I wish you great success with this endeavor!

As we continue to live under the threat of terrorists, our ears are continually on the open for news or headlines about subversive actions all over the world.

Have our lives changed? Yes, I would everyone say to some degree.

The troubling thoughts and actions of so few affect and effect so many!

Have you ever thought if your child was kidnapped?

Will they come back to you alive?

Will Ambassador Halton’s daughter be used as trade bait?

Gabriel Allon refuses to give in or give up!

No one can locate Elizabeth Halton!

Why did they take her?

Oh, I failed to mention her father is a billionaire!

Seems as if money is indeed the same no matter where you are from!

Gabriel Allon vs. Jihadist extremists, who will get what they want?

The terrorists give their demands and the hunt starts.

To me this great Daniel Silva was in one word “deep”, full of insights into the minds of radical beliefs, life of a killer and his past life with his family, and some of the questions raised by our own government and their methods of dealing with terrorists.

Read the novel, “The Secret Servant!”

As I turned the corner and looked behind me, I sensed someone’s presence!

Oh! OK! It’s just my Mom!

I remember playing as a spy when visiting the downtown area as a young man! Man! This spy stuff is fun!

We have all as reading or playing been in that mode where our senses are heightened, our “world” seems foreign, and our friends could have infiltrated our group!

Little did I know that “Dr. No and From Russia With Love” would so much influence my adult reading life!

Daniel Silva captures the essence of the spy game with every book he writes about Gabriel Allon.

In “The English Assassin“, Gabriel heads to Zurich to restore a painting for millionaire banker, Augustus Rolfe.

Or is he?

Gabriel goes in and finds the banker dead and is arrested for the “murder.”

Herr Peterson, the head of the police department, knows the real truth and finally through government negotiations, Allon is released.

Anna Rolfe, daughter of the dead banker, has to find out what really happened to her estranged father. Gabriel is sent to help.

They are both drawn into an underground world of political power, stolen art, a suicide, and a “hit” is put out on Anna!

You know these types of novels just never get old!

Get “The English Assassin” for yourself!

You know computers could really be “The Devil’s Code!”

Every hackers dream is to disrupt!

Every hackers dream is to steal!

Can hackers bring down our way of life as we know it now?

What did Jack Morrison know?

Why was he murdered?

What does AmMath Corporation have to hide?

St. John Corbeil, President of AmMath, is he a ruthless killer?

Did Lane Ward, Jack’s sister, have anything to do with his death?

Did the National Security Agency have Jack killed?

Wow, a lot of questions raised by the this olde but goode novel about one of Mr. Sandford best characters, Kidd.

Computers are now such a part of just about everyone’s life. We surf the web, we blog, we pay bills, we purchase merchandise, we absorb a lot of instantly breaking news, and probably the latest and greatest dimension is the social media aspect where we closely interact with our fellow computer enerds!

Kidd was a computer expert in a circle of hackers that included Jack Morrison.

Lane received information from Jack in the event of his death to contact Kidd to help her find his killer.

Little did Kidd and his partner LuEllen realize that they was about to step into a government conspiracy that was far “above” the megabits they were used to dealing with!

Yes this is a great novel for the net conspiracy buff!

As always I do not like to reveal to much of the plot and encourage you get “The Devil’s Code” for yourself and enjoy!
