OF VENGEANCE

Discovery of bodies in the Outer Banks' Nags Head Woods leads to the chilling conclusion that there is an . . . UNDERTOW
OF VENGEANCE Following a lead from a reporter, crime writer Harrison Weaver finds a man and woman executed in the Outer Banks' Nags Head Woods, their wrists tied to one another. This bizarre slaying, however, is only the start of other killings that draw Weaver and SBI Agent Ballsford Twiddy into an investigation that proves as frustrating as it is deadly, and involves a puzzling connection to a very unlikely placea church. As efforts to nab the killer before he fulfills his promise that there will be others, Weaver finds himself and two of his friends facing a deranged murder, and Weaver must act fast to save himself and his friendsor they, too, will be added to the list of the dead. 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." |
