Review of RETRIBUTION

     RETRIBUTION
  A Psychic Detective
         Kate Pierce
      Crime Thriller


C.M. SUTTER

Review by Roy Murry, Author

At times Ms. Sutter has the reader on the edge of their seat, but I found this thriller not believable. The writing is good, and the characters understandable. However, the story didn't come across as real.

Kate's character is well put together for a series. So, in telling me, the author gives away to the fact that Kate will survive any event.

I like police thrillers. This one didn't keep my attention completely.

Review of Ireland, A Novel

Ireland, A Novel
Frank Delaney

Review by Roy Murry, Author

"Explore all you like ---this Ireland; no family worth the name is without a secret. And you should know that in this country a secret is something everyone else knows," is said to Ronan when finding out a secret in his life. He is on the last road of his journey to find a Storyteller that started when he was nine.

Through short stories, many told by the Storyteller, letters read, people on Ronan's life quest to discover who he is, and lectures of his history professor, the reader will find the rich history of Ireland. This history told from before the Norman conquest to the Easter Rebellion of 1916 in a novel form that keeps your attention.

The roots of Irish myths, heroes, and the common man is in prose that will delight the reader - how the Irish tell a tale is fun to read. I read some stories over again. And you will too.

IRELAND, A NOVEL is one of the best reads of my career as a reviewer of over four hundred books.

REview of TAROT HAUNTING

Tarot Haunting

E.B. Sullivan

Review by Roy Murry, Author

This novel is a fun read with a predictable ending. After all, it is a romance story with an interesting twist that keeps the reader engaged.

There are roadblocks in Cassie's story. She has her doubts as to her evaluations of situations never encounter in her sheltered life after taking a position in New York City with a TV personality. She becomes the historical researcher for his show.

Whether you are religious or not, the reader will enjoy how Ms. Sullivan equates Tarot Cards to Cassie's faith base Biblical rules. After Cassie reads/interprets a card, the story moves forward for the good or the bad in her relationships with her boss, Jared, and her over religious protective family.

That movement has some twists and turns that the reader will laugh at and maybe cry a tear in some places, wishing the best for Cassandra on her journey of self-realization.  It all works out in the end. Maybe?

'One sitting' read for the romance lover waiting for the punch line.

Quite enjoyable. I think I am a Romantic. LOL


REview of LICENSE TO LIE

LICENSE TO LIE
Exposing Corruption in the
Department of Justice

SIDNEY POWELL

Mainstream Media will never tell you this story about one of the members of The Mueller's investigation into a collision that has taken two years without credibility. His name is Weissmann, who also headed the Eron, Anderson, Merrill Lynch probes and trial as the lead prosecutor.

Ms. Powell exposes their corrupt "Gamesmanship," a term in legal circles referring to the way lawyers conduct themselves during a case. She contends that Weissmann and the company play the legal game dirty and illegally.

For some years, she was Jim Brown's lawyer in the MERRILL case after being a prosecutor for many years. With her experience, Ms. Powell outlines each case mentioned above, including another DOJ overreach that ended in acquittal. The detail of her discourse is overwhelming and to the point.

Ms. Powell has turned the table on the DOJ. Or has she? Will, her client, go back to prison for the government's misconduct? Will others pay the price for the Prosecutors hiding the truth from the defendants? 

The above is the exciting part of this novel/expose’ that uses the actual trial transcript to bring the point across - the DOJ does not play fair, and there are no repercussions when they lie as to the truth of a case in and out of court.   

Her point is clear and puts the government and Mr. Weissmann on the spot, but you will not hear it in the news, and we didn't know when the above cases were tried.

I found the book a little lengthy and redundant at times, but well written. It is worth 'the dime.'

REview of MEXIFORNIA

MEXIFORNIA
A State of Becoming

VICTOR DAVIS HANSON

Review by Roy Murry, Author

Closed or open borders on the southern frontier of the USA is the central question of Mr. Hanson's thesis. He gives the reader the full spectrum of pros and cons to contemplate in his description of the state of California the way he sees it as a native farmer and professor of history.

The complexities of the Mexican illegal immigration that California seems to be the epicenter may spread across the country if the governments on each side of the divide do not pay attention to the reasons for that migration. The movements of that migration must be either stopped or opened is the question the USA Congress and the American people must decide - walls or no walls.

MEXIFORNIA is a piece of excellent background information as to what has happened since the 1970s to the present situation. Latins, illegal or not, are the backbone of the farming industry in that state.

According to the author, his and thousands of Californians’ lives have changed with the constant flow of young migrants replacing older ones, working on farms and hard labor.  Many of them have not acquired the ability to assimilate to become citizens or speak the English language.

This situation has changed the economic landscape, much for the worst, and could spread throughout the USA.

If the USA immigration at our Southern border is of interest to you, MEXIFORNIA is an intelligent read to start your quest of understanding illegal immigration.

Review of Say You're Sorry

SAY YOU'RE SORRY
Morgan Dane, Book 1

MELINDA LEIGH

Review by Roy Murry, Author

Morgan, a lawyer, who has worked on the government's side of the bench before her semi-retirement because of a horrific event in her life, finds herself defending the rights of a friend. The friend, a young man, is accused of killing another friend of Morgan's.

With the help of Lance and company, Morgan goes into an investigative mood. In detecting, they confront many obstacles and by government officials because they have their man - her young friend.

Will, there be a trial or will Morgan, and Lance find the real killer? Only if they stay alive will they find the killer, and this becomes a blockage in their investigation also - some people want Morgan and her client dead.

Ms. Leigh intriguing story that keeps the reader guessing as to whodunit. I was surprised at the beginning and the end.

Quick read. Purchase: https://amzn.to/2CgZTdn
