Zusammenfassung des Herausgebers:

Alain Whitstock II. hat eine besondere Schwäche für alte Gegenstände. Sobald er sie berührt, lösen sie eine so warme, wohltuende Schwere in ihm aus, dass er schier süchtig nach solchen Artefakten ist. Je älter sie sind, desto länger hält dieses Gefühl an.

Bei einem Besuch in Japan findet er einen Schrein, zu dem ein schwarzes Messer zählt, Alain spürt schon von weitem, was für ein unglaubliches Alter diese Antiquität ausstrahlt. Wenn er dieses Messer zu seinem Eigen zählen könnte, würde es ihm jahrelang dieses wunderbare Gefühl bereiten. Welche Grenzen wird Alain überschreiten, um an das schwarze Messer zu gelangen?

Publisher's Summary:

Sebastian Bergstrom was the young star goaltender for the Boston Bruins, the franchise player who was going to return the legendary hockey team to greatness. That's until he suddenly collapsed during a game, launching a contentious and complicated medical investigation that culminated in Sebby's triumphant return to the ice. But a few months later, Sebby went down again - this time for good. His death touched off a malpractice suit against the Harvard cardiologist who cleared him to play. Though eventually exonerated of any wrongdoing, the case took a horrible toll on the doctor and his family. The Bergstrom case resurfaced a few years later, when the attorney who led the lawsuit against the doctor fell victim to a savage attack on the Harvard Bridge. The police zeroed in on a prime suspect, an old friend of the doctor sued in the Bergstrom case...one Philip Sarkis, MD.

A captivating read

I have read all 3 books and my only complaint is having to wait for the next book. This is my favorite type of medical mystery, exceptionally well written with an "I didn't see that coming" ending. I was hooked from the start. Reading the first two books certainly developed the characters but each book stands alone as well. His intimate knowledge of Boston and Philadelphia made the book even more interesting. A great read and I look forward to the next book.

Another great book in the series

Another great book in the series about Philip Sarkis. It is an exciting and interesting read. The character development continues to build, making it even more enjoyable to follow the journeys of Philip Sarkis and Dorothy Deaver.

One Star

Poorly written compared to his other two novels.

Four Stars

The best story by Peyer Kowey yet. Hope there are more to come

Five Stars

great great book.....but the ending left me a little sad....but it was necessary!

Publisher's Summary:

Tinker Murtagh thinks his new job is simple, but he's never robbed a medical clinic before - and he's never dealt with someone like Dr. Henry Van Deman. In Fresh Frozen by Darden North, a childless young policeman and his desperate, infertile wife meet Lucille Wax and her sales catalogue of human embryo and egg donors. Suddenly their Mississippi community faces grisly murder, the world of Hollywood celebrity, and a physician with a hidden agenda.

The lives of Carrie and Wesley Sarbeck, international superstar Allyn Saxton, and southern socialite Cheryl Choice unwittingly collide at the Van Deman Center, a state-of-the-art clinic for the treatment of infertility, housed in a once decaying building complex in Canton, Mississippi. The facility is equipped not only with modern medical technology but also a network of secret security cameras hidden in unconventional places and controlled by cyber thief Tinker Murtagh.

While Dr. Knox Chamblee, Van Deman's younger medical partner, treats his patients per protocol, he unknowingly promotes the deception, preserving the dark secrets of the Van Deman Center of Reproductive Technology. The fast-paced suspense and rich dialogue in Fresh Frozen reveal how medical ethics can easily be discarded for the right price as human reproductive tissue becomes a fatal commodity.

Practicing OB-GYN physician Darden North is a national IPPY-awarded author in Southern Fiction. Narrated by Flora Plumb, Fresh Frozen is North's third novel. Plumb is a professional actress in film and television as well as a voice artist in audiobooks and video games. She has narrated over 20 audiobooks.

Members Reviews:

A medical thriller with many surprises

A medical thriller that illustrates not only the devastating psychological effects that infertility can have on individuals but also the potential that exists within the fertility business for unscrupulous and avaricious practices. This well written book contains many surprises, twists and turns, with multiple characters lives crossing and intertwining in unpredictable, and sometimes deadly, ways. You can not help but feel the sorrow and loneliness of some of the characters and your heart breaks for the devastation of their lives. The narration seemed to fit most of the characters well, but I did feel it fell a bit flat with some of the men. It is a fast paced, enjoyable book but I would have liked the author to do more of a round up at the end of the book, as I was left wondering what the outcome for some of the characters were.

Wow, unique let busy- intrigue, infertility story

What did you like best about Fresh Frozen? What did you like least?

Fresh Forozen explores the consquences of couples desperate to do anything to conceive a baby.PI Tinker Mudogh is tasked with stealing eggs for a person of the law, but along the way we meet all sorts of incendiary characters in a film-noir style. The story is really fast paced--reader feels as if they are in a maze with surprises in every corner.

If youve listened to books by Darden North before, how does this one compare?

Darden North writes energetic books.

Have you listened to any of Flora Plumbs other performances before? How does this one compare?

I have never listened to Flora Plum but I really enjoyed her performance.

Publisher's Summary:

A DNA wonder drug is created in order to make people wiser, more attractive and successful. The drug is invented by Jim Below at Berkeley, CA during 1993, 25 years green at the time of the discovery. He begs his physics department to publish his findings of a revolutionary drug. He calls it Figene (Future Infusion of Genetic Evolution).

Jim aims to capture the lives of famous people through grave digging, then combine their bone matter into a new wonder drug. Yet as soon as he publishes his idea, the FBI and the Russian mafia are after his discovery. At the same time in Russia, Larissa Puskin comes up with the idea of DNA re-composition. She too is chased by the FSB and Alexus Murgosky. He heads the mafia family who race to steal Figene.

The feds investigate, and Jim cuts a deal - they receive a cut of the profits without FDA approval. On the other side of world, Larissa Puskin presents the same idea. She provides a paper to the University of Moscow. Her problem is, the Physics and Genetics Department will not release her findings to the public.

Their enemy Alexus Murgosky, a Russian Mafia Boss, sets to put their drug Figene on the Black Market to keep the prices high.

What follows next is Jim's and Larissa's journey into deciding whether they want money or peace of mind. Both fall into an emotional quicksand. During their grave robberies both realize they will either bank on the Love of each other or betray the other. Will she and Jim dig up famous people to re-incarnate Napoleon Bonaparte, Claude Monet's, Ludwig Von Beethoven, or Julius Caesar? Or will they set each other to keep Figene?

As time races on, and the Russian Mafia closes in, humor, tragedy, hope and love are themes prevalent.

Members Reviews:

The Surgeon And The Guru

I enjoyed the late 70s-early-80s feel of this unique novel. All of the characters felt very real and believable; apart from a few exceptions I enjoyed not knowing what was going to happen next. It's a tale that will linger in my mind for quite some time.

Medical Thriller

Intriguing "what if"about a surgeon given magical healing power, strangely authentic.

Beautifully original. Realistic and yet hauntingly mystical

Beautifully original. Realistic and yet hauntingly mystical, KT reaches into the fascinating grey zone between the certainties of western medicine and mysteries of Eastern belief. A provocative "what-if", this is a must for anyone who is weary of traditional healthcare but wary of too much hope.

Der erste Thriller von Michael Tsokos basiert - wie könnte es anders sein - auf einem authentischen Fall und echten Ermittlungen. Sein Protagonist, Rechtsmediziner Dr. Fred Abel vom BKA, bekommt es mit einem europaweit agierenden Serienmörder zu tun: Im Umkreis europäischer Flughäfen geschehen Schlag auf Schlag Morde an Frauen, die der Täter mit einer mysteriösen Parole beschriftet. Durch eine spezielle DNA-Analyse gerät der Ex-Soldat Lars Moewig in Verdacht - ausgerechnet ein alter Kumpel des Rechtsmediziners aus gemeinsamen Bundeswehrzeiten, dem Abel so brutale Verbrechen niemals zugetraut hätte.

Doch Moewig fehlen die Alibis, und er wird in U-Haft genommen. Während Moewigs kleine Tochter an Leukämie stirbt, versucht Abel fieberhaft, den wahren Täter zu entlarven. Eine atemlose Verfolgungsjagd über den europäischen Kontinent gefährdet nicht nur Abels Leben. Und die Zweifel an der Unschuld seines alten Freundes erdrücken ihn fast.

Publisher's Summary:

He felt threatened....

Sex, drugs, and missing money...not your ordinary trip to the dentist! An ex-con, a stripper, a psychologist, and a dentist all have one thing in common - former Southern California D.A. turned private investigator, Richard McCord.

Surviving numerous challenges over the years, both personally and professionally, Richard McCord discovers he's again facing a predicament. What appeared to be a simple case quickly explodes into multiple murders, a Mexican drug cartel connection, temptation from a vivacious exotic dancer, and maybe even a serious relationship with a beautiful therapist.

McCord is never one to walk away from danger, but he's now struggling with his emotions. At times, the old comfort of a bottle of booze seems mighty inviting, as he walks a thin line of vulnerability. Will he stay strong, or give in to his weaknesses and end up hating himself?

A likable central character and a twisty mystery

I bought this novel out of curiosity after I found out that L.R. Pendleton is Linda Pendleton, wife of Don Pendleton, creator of one of my favorite fictional characters, Mack Bolan, the Executioner. I'm glad I did. Linda's character Richard McCord isn't as hard core as Mack Bolan, but he is tough, troubled, well-drawn and likable. The murder mystery is twisty and not easy to guess. And there's some interesting character development in McCord through the course of the story. It definitely made me want to explore more of Linda Pendleton's books.

Grab a beer and enjoy...you are about to meet your newest friend

Linda Pendleton's new mystery is a very enjoyable read. Richard McCord is a character that will hopefully have many books that will continue his career. He isn't the typical one-dimensional PI, he has a history and brains that leaves a lot of potential for future books.

This is not my usual genre of reading, but having read Mrs. Pendleton in the past, I knew I would not be disappointed...and disappointed I was not. This one has enough characters interacting and strings attached to each to keep even a 'Game of Thrones' fan turning the pages. Not a dull moment, and the continual introduction of characters in this (hopeful) first book makes me eager to get back into the world of McCord.

There is plenty here for you to enjoy if, like me, you picture what you are reading as a film in your mind. The characters are well developed, the plot is fast paced and keeps getting a bit more tangled (in a good way) and the payoff...oh yeah...it's worth it.

Enjoy this one with an ice-cold beer (or two) as you will find yourself becoming friends with McCord and simply enjoying his world, which is a fully realized one that is familiar and the writing makes you feel like you are just sitting on the porch listening to a friend tell you his dealings for the week.

Highly recommend and I am certain that you, like me, will be eagerly awaiting the next client for Richard McCord.

Deadly Flare-up is a rollercoaster ride of murder, drugs and intrigue!

In Deadly Flare-up L.R. Pendleton has created a first class sleuth in Richard McCord. In a case that turns deadly almost from the start, Richard McCord finds himself having to unravel a deadly web of intrigue and murder amid the Southern California drug trade.

But will Jenny fulfill her quest for retribution?

Dramatic, intriguing, and laced with hospital drama, Oliver Rixon takes us on another great thrill ride of murder, betrayal, retribution and transformation... .

Members Reviews:

Another great thriller!

I really enjoyed the bold, and unique style of storytelling in Broken Mirror, so I was pleased to see a sequel so soon. Once again, Oliver Rixon masterfully pulls the reader into the story right away with an intensity that is maintained throughout the book. The Reverend is back again, with an interesting complexity added to his personality through his relationship with Mary. But don't be fooled, he's as menacing as ever, and definitely a character that I "love to hate" as I'm reading. The other characters in the story were well developed too.

Mary surprised me the most out of all the characters. I won't reveal why, but she's not the timid housekeeper you may expect! I really felt like I could relate to Jenny the way she worked so hard to balance her work and family time. She is a natural heroine with such a likable personality and empathy for everyone. I was rooting for the whole way!

I highly recommend this book if you enjoy psychological thrillers and don't mind a bit of violence. I will be looking forward to more from this author!

Perfect Sequel-Doesn't Get Much Better Than This!

Reverend Lucas Wheelan is still causing devastation and heartbreak wherever he goes. His twisted mind and twisted desires have not lessened-they are getting worse. The little self-control he had before seems to be slipping away.

Jenny Barrett is more determined than ever to put a stop to Wheelan. Revenge can be a nasty business, and she will stop at nothing to see this through, but can she manage to find the balance between revenge and family? Can she keep them protected from this madman? Will she be able to pull this off? Or will he find a way to destroy her before she can destroy him?

There are times when the sequel doesn't quite live up to expectations. Thankfully, this is not one of those times! Oliver Rixon more than delivers with Broken Mind. It may even be better than Broken Mirror-and that is saying something!!

Broken Mind continues the journey the characters started in Broken Mirror seamlessly. As good as the writing was in the first book (and it was pretty awesome), the writing in this book was even better. Rixon creates his world perfectly and knows exactly how to make you feel like you are in the middle of everything. You feel like you are standing beside the characters and experiencing everything with them. The opening paragraph is all you need to be sucked into the story, and every paragraph after keeps you just as invested. The twists and turns keep you guessing, and Rixon makes you think about things in a different way.
