Novellas
John Lescroart recommends
The Echelon Vendetta (2007)
(Micah Dalton, book 1)
David Stone
"A terrific read. THE ECHELON VENDETTA is terrifying, stylish, action-packed."
Locke 1928 (2007)
Shawna Yang Ryan
"Shawna Ryan's Water Ghosts is a multi-layered marvel of a book. The prose is a delight, the characters fascinating, the story richly imagined and heart-rending. This first novel of grace and substance presages a notable literary career for Shawna Ryan."
The Timer Game (2008)
(Grace Descanso, book 1)
Susan Arnout Smith
"The Timer Game is a highly entertaining, intelligent, original yet classic thriller. Susan Arnout Smith has written a gem here - memorable characters and a fast and furious ticking-clock plot. A really good read!"
Dark Matter (2008)
Cameron Cruise
"A top-notch talent, Cameron Cruise is going to be around for a long time."
Gauntlet (2009)
Richard Aaron
"Wow, wow, wow! Gauntlet is a tour de force of exhuberant storytelling... the definitive reality-based global thriller. Great suspense, a killer plot, and - amazingly - real characters. An absolute winner."
Fire Dance (2011)
Mike Sirota
"Mike Sirota is an absolute pro of a writer and, even for non-aficionades of ghost stories, these pages sing."
The Trial (2011)
Larry D Thompson
"Just terrific... As real as a heart attack, and every bit as suspenseful."
Trespasser (2011)
(Mike Bowditch Mystery, book 2)
Paul Doiron
"Doiron is an accomplished and powerful new voice in suspense fiction."
Original Sin (2011)
(Sally Sin)
Beth McMullen
"Smart, sassy, sexy Sally Sin is an absolute delight of a heroine whom I predict will be around delighting readers for a very long time. And her first adventure, Original Sin, is pure entertainment gold."
Cemetery Girl (2011)
David Bell
"David Bell's Cemetery Girl grabbed me by the throat on page one and never let up. An intense, unrelenting powerhouse of a book, and the work of a master."
The American Lawyer (2012)
John Martel
"A gem of international legal suspense, Martel is a total pro at the top of his game."
The Defence (2015)
(Eddie Flynn, book 1)
Steve Cavanagh
"Puts the 'thrill' back in 'legal thriller'. Non-stop action, unexpected and totally cool plot twists, a sympathetic genius of a con-man/attorney, and a clock that never ever ever stops ticking -- this isn't narrative drive, it's rocket-like narrative propulsion! Hop aboard and enjoy the ride!"
The Drifter (2016)
(Peter Ash, book 1)
Nick Petrie
"With The Drifter, Nick Petrie has written just about the perfect thriller. I haven't read such a well-crafted and gripping story in a month of Sundays. If this is Petrie's first novel, watch out for the second one. But why wait? This one's here now, and it's a home run."
The Dry (2016)
(Aaron Falk, book 1)
Jane Harper
"Terrific characters, unique and evocative setting, knockout plot construction. This book has it all."
Hold a Scorpion (2016)
(Diana Poole, book 2)
Melodie Johnson-Howe
"A mega-tough yet sympathetic heroine."
Ginny Moon (2017)
Benjamin Ludwig
"Artfully rendered, heartbreaking, funny and suspenseful, The Original Ginny Moon is a veritable smorgasbord of a read that will stay with you long after you've consumed the final page. Excellent!"
The First Family (2018)
Daniel Palmer and Michael Palmer
"The First Family is adrenaline-fueled entertainment that twists, turns, surprises and satisfies!"
Wicked River (2018)
Jenny Milchman
"Suspense oozes like blood from a wound on every page of Jenny Milchman's Wicked River. As scary and tense a book as I've read this year."
Bound for Gold (2018)
(Peter Fallon, book 6)
William Martin
"Epic in scale, eloquent in execution, Bound for Gold is a pure delight. The great Forty-Niner gold rush comes to vivid life in William Martin’s skillful, suspenseful, and original retelling, and its resonance into the present is nothing short of mesmerizing."
Saving Grace (2021)
Debbie Babitt
"Fasten your seat belts! SAVING GRACE is the scariest literary ride of the year. Debbie Babitt's debut novel is nothing short of breathtaking and the ending will blow your socks off."
The Truth of it All (2021)
Gwen Florio
"Gwen Florio is the real deal, a terrific writer with a unique and powerful style of her own. The Truth of it All is a winner on every level—hot button issues, moral dilemmas, believable characters, everything that makes a legal thriller work. Highly recommended."
Strange Fire (2022)
Joel Burcat
"Strange Fire is complex and intelligent, deftly plotted and character rich. As a bonus, it's also like a college course in fracking and the moral and technical issues surrounding fossil fuel extraction; as such, it couldn't be more timely. Joel Burcat has a winner with this one."
