Jeff Bailey reviews Max Thrust by James Walker
Max Thrust by James Walker was, for me, MAX entertainment. The story is a contemporary fiction situated in the middle of todays space program. There is even a reference to The Space Force. When NASA or any other government space programs can’t launch a project in time to solve a problem in space, they call the ultimate space cowboy, contractor Maxwell Ardis of Thrust Solutions. Max is a mashup of the Right Stuff, MacGyver, and Indiana Jones with a little Flash Gordon thrown in. Max has little government bureaucracy restraining him. He can get the job done, done quickly, and done with flair when others can’t. He launches into space for a repair the way some tow-truck drivers dive out to the freeway for a tow, just another day at the office. The whole book just seems like it should be taking place in today’s world: Thrust Solutions: Max's company. My kind of book. My kind of read. I was so along for the ride. Kudos for James Walker on a spectacular book, Max Thrust.

Jeff Bailey Reviews Cult Stalker by Ephraim Clark
Ephraim Clark’s latest
thriller, Cult Stalker, was excellent. Clark was born in the United
States, bummed around Europe and the UK for a while, and is currently an expat
living in Paris, the setting for Cult Stalker. A religious cult has
taken up residence in Paris, but the cult is not all it seems to be. It has
been infiltrated by – corruption, corruption of the worst kind. CIA secret
weapon, Brad James and his trusted ally Chuck Hall take up the case. Seems someone
is important missing and Brad must find her. Cult Stalker is a ‘thriller reader’s’
high octane, fast, twisty thriller. I also like the balance of the story, equal
parts conspiracy, characters, and setting. The three parts complimented each
other perfectly. I almost feel as though I have lived in Paris and now know the
city. Clark is such a master storyteller, high compliments for Cult Stalker.

Robbie Sheerin Reviews The Defect by Jeff Bailey
Jeff Bailey’s knowledge and expertise of the nuclear power industry come through vividly and clear in this fictional novel. With fascinating detail and descriptions, he puts the reader right in the narrative. I felt like I knew the characters and the nuclear plant so well. Very intriguing story of terrorism and suspense. Highly recommend for fans of Clancy and other American threat stories. Would be a great movie!

Jeff Bailey Reviews Who Are You by R. T. Lund
I just finished a binge read on the last two thirds of Who Are You by R.T Lund, absolutely superb. Books like Who Are You is why I follow the authors that I do. I particularly like the first person, only the facts, sir, presentation. It was reminiscent if Joe Friday in the ventage TV show Dragnet. Lund did it so well. The story centers around Detective Lincoln Barnes and her cerebral partner, Warren, as they investigate an unusual murder connected to Lincoln’s personal life. Whereas Dragnet only presented the facts and investigation of the crime, Who Are You explores the personal life of Detective Barnes in a way that becomes more apparent as the investigation progresses. And, oh such a good twist at the end. I highly recommend all of R.T. Lund’s books. Five stars yet again for R.T. Lund.

Jeff Bailey Reviews Genuine Deceit by Joy York
Interesting Name, Genuine Deceit, a contradiction of terms. This rather describes this story. While so much of the conspiracy seems clocked in deceit, there is so much genuine story that is a unique blend. I enjoy a great conspiracy. I enjoy them even more when they are wrapped in such a good character situation story. The expertly blended story of the daily lives of the characters added another level of enjoyment for me. Reagan and Aiden are wanting nothing more than to disappear from responsibility for a couple of different reasons. Instead, they are catapulted into a nonstop hurricane of dangerous situations after another. Dangerous thugs, a grandmother’s murder, an inherited house and a staggeringly expensive heirloom only complicate the central high paced story. I enjoyed Joy York's Genuine Deceit to the max and highly recommend it for fans of the best of conspiracy novels.
