NOT
OUR KIND OF KILLING Bizarre
murder in a remote area of North Carolina's Crime writer Harrison Weaver doesn't believe in coincidencesonly messages that may not be decipherable at first. That's his feeling when, as he prepares to go kayaking at Buffalo City near the Outer Banks, he discovers the body of a nude young female, hogtied and very dead. The stark scene is especially eerie to him because a month earlier he had been assigned to write about the murder of another young woman who was found nude and hogtied in the back seat of her car in the mountains of North Carolinafour hundred miles away from Weaver's home at the coastal Outer Banks area. As Weaver and his SBI Agent friend attempt to track down the killer or killers, it becomes chillingly clear to Weaver that a young woman close to him could be the next victim . . . and it's a race against time to try to save her. Praise for the Harrison Weaver Mysteries Undertow of Vengeance,
Joseph Terrell's fourth thriller in the Harrison Weaver crime writer series,
and set in North Carolina's Outer Banks, is a knockout. With the deadpan
savvy delivery of Humphrey Bogart as Sam Spade and the clipped declarative
sentences of Dashiell Hammett, this volume, like its predecessors, reaches
out in the very first sentence, grabs you by the lapels, and never lets
up. Smooth writing from
an eloquent storyteller goes down like fine scotch. Undertow of Vengeance
is a keeper. "Every once in
a while I'll pick up a book and from the first sentence, I'm engaged.
Written with an extraordinary eye for detail yet in the sparse language
of the journalist he once was, Terrell's novel is filled with wonderful
dialogue, believable characters and just enough plot twists to keep the
reader turning pages." "Joe Terrell
gets the Outer Banks just right, from crashing surf to the sordid crimes
behind the tourism façade, to a thoughtful sleuth who can throw
a punch and make a mean sweet tea." "A smart, savvy
combination of who-done-it and police procedural." |
