Review of TRAFFICKING



TRAFFICKING

(Powell Book 1)


BILL WARD

 

Review by Author Roy Murry

 

Sex trafficking is a global human problem. Mr. Ward places his story of a challenge to combat it in London against a Romanian mob.

Afina is delivered to Brighton as a sex slave under false pretenses and presents a problem for her captive. Powell, who is out to get revenge, collides with Afina's world.

He goes undercovers to meet her. At this point, Powell puts his plan into action. And thrilling action the reader will get.

At any given point in TRAFFICKING, Powell's plan and Afina's actions will lead to a few calamities. 

However, they avoid total disaster in their efforts, and the ending is encouraging with a cavitate that will bring the reader back for Book 2 in this series.

The writing is high quality and fast-paced, with cliff-ending twists and turns.

Review of NOT MY FIRST RODEO




NOT MY FIRST RODEO

 

KRISTI NOEM

 

Review by Author Roy Murry

 

I have written one, but I have never read an autobiography until now after seeing Kristi Noem in an interview. She piqued my interest.

The story she weaves of her and her family's life will have you crying, laughing, thinking, and reviewing your own life. The strength she acquired growing up on a farm in South Dakota is inspiring.

"Burning Daylight" is a built psychic ability she learned from her father and her faith from both parents. In other words, get things done today and put your faith in God to do the right thing.

It does not matter what political party you align with; this is not a political book of theories. Instead, I believe Kristi wrote this to inspire people to think and pray on a matter before leaping into the unknown.

I am convinced.

Review of BLUEWATER PAYBACK

 


BLUEWATER PAYBACK

CLR Dougherty

 

Review by Author Roy Murry

 

I have read several of Mr. Dougherty's novels, which are thrilling adventures in the Caribbean. The ship Vengeance moves around the islands, and a little nautical information is interwoven into the story.

The author slowly lays the groundwork, builds on it, and gives the reader a surprising ending. The twist and turns keep the reader wondering what will happen next.

In Bluewater, he does that and more. A con is on, and no one, including Dani and Liz, owners of the Vengeance, is pulled into it.

Unraveling the plot will keep the reader involved, as I was. Slow at the beginning, this novel pace moves fast to an explosive ending for one of the bad guys.

Well, worth the read.

The Body on the Barstool



THE BODY ON THE BARSTOOL

A Top Shelf Mystery

 

LOLLI POWELL

 

Review by Author Roy Murry

 

This cozy mystery has all the bells and whistles of a good mystery. The characters are fun and loveable, including Jasper the cat.

 Ricki returns to her hometown to take over an inherited bar, Top Shelf. A week into her management, a dead body is on a barstool.

She is suspect because of her relationship with the corpse. Here, the fun begins with twists and turns the reader will not see coming.

When the storm settles at the end, Ricki may return to New York or stay with a new Top Shelf mystery. Barstool is an excellent lead into a series.

Dawn of the Egyptian Masters

DAWN OF THE EGYPTIAN MASTERS

The Origins

From the Field Notes & Journals of M.G. Hawking

CONTRIBUTIONS BY MANY

Review by Author Roy Murry



"There are truths which are not for all men." - Voltaire

Kalika, one of the book's masters, philosophized for thousand years B.C. in Egypt and wants you to believe, "Consciousness creates everything except consciousness."

If you don't have an Inquisitive Mind and don't care to develop it to a higher level, read a romance or mystery. This book is not for you. "Dawn..." is a book chock full of thoughts to be mulled over.

The "Encounter" parts read like fantasy, but for M.G. Hawking, they are real-life meetings with adepts or related thoughts. Life in this universe is revealed.

Interwoven in the narrative of the masters are many thoughts added by people like Kant, Plato, and others. The reader will marvel at the ideas that lead to the power of man's consciousness and subconsciousness.

It is worth the purchase – lots to read and think about.

Girl, ghost, and kill




THE GIRL, THE GHOST, AND THE KILL

 

JOHN ESPIE

 

Review by Author Roy Murry

 

This novel is a story of misguided people - three women and one man who believes he is a god. The man kills one of the women, becoming a ghost that haunts his house, confronting the girl to help her.

They tell both sides of the women's story: ghost to girl and ghost to ghost. Their mission is to save a woman from the man and his propensity to kill.

The plot sounds complicated, and it is, but the reader will be thrilled with the ending. The spirit world communicates strangely, leading to THE KILL, according to this multi-layer story.

The writing is a little over detailed, all three hundred thirty-five pages, but the suspense keeps the reader involved. Part 4 of this novel is worth the wait.

Review FOREVER WISHES




FOREVER WISHES

 

LEEANNA MORGAN

 

Review by Author Roy Murry

 

'Forever Wishes' is a well-written predictable romance novel. Man meets woman. They have sex, and then...

This novel has its twists and turns. The major problem with this love story is whether to have children or not, which in today's world is a challenge.

Each person's background tells the story of why they believe in what they do concerning marriage and having children. Those and other roadblocks the two have to overcome are the cruces of their relationship.

As I noted, this is a foreseeable conclusion a lover of Romance novels will revel in.
