BOOK DESCRIPTION
Desperate to save her brother Rudd from being condemned as a traitor, Lady Rexana Villeaux must dance in disguise at a feast for the High Sheriff of Warringham. Her goal is to distract him so her servant can steal a damning missive from the sheriff’s solar. Dressed in the gauzy costume of a desert courtesan, dancing with all the passion and sensuality in her soul, she succeeds in her mission. And, at the same time, condemns herself. Fane Linford, the banished son of an English earl, joined Richard’s crusade only to find himself a captive in a hellish eastern prison. He survived the years of torment, it’s rumored, because of the love of a Saracen courtesan. The rumors are true. And when he sees Rexana dance, Richard has promised Fane an English bride, yet he desires only one woman—the exotic dancer who tempted him. Then he discovers the dancer’s identity. And learns her brother is in his dungeon, accused of plotting against the throne. It is more temptation than Fane can resist. The last thing Rexana wants is marriage to the dark and brooding Sheriff of Warringham. But her brother is his prisoner, and there may be only one way to save him. Taking the greatest chance of her life, Rexana becomes the sheriff’s bride. And learns that the Dance of Desire was only a beginning.

Then the discovery of eight year old Claire Anderson’s body in the ruins of the old Craig Dunain Asylum shows the newly promoted Inspector how much worse her day can get.

As Munro starts to pick apart the lives of the victim’s family and friends, she soon discovers the majority of monsters are so mundane as to go unnoticed, and that even the obvious ones are not all that they appear.

As the Liche Lord and his horde of Feeders relentlessly pursue him, there is little time for Nameless to settle old scores, mend bridges, and pray that the survivors of his butchery at Arx Gravis can forgive him just enough for him to save them.

Only problem is, he’s not sure he has the strength or the courage for the task.

BOOK OF THE DAY: Tripoli's Target by Ethan Jones







BOOK DESCRIPTION
Justin Hall and Carrie O’Connor, Canadian Intelligence Service Agents, find themselves in lawless North Africa on the trail of an assassination plot. The target is the US President, and the hit is scheduled to take place during a G-20 summit in Libya’s capital, Tripoli. But the source of their information is the deceitful leader of one of the deadliest terrorist groups in the area. Ambushes and questionable loyalties turn an already difficult mission into a dark maze of betrayal and misdirection.

Forced to return to Tripoli, Justin and Carrie dig up new intelligence pointing to a powerful Saudi prince bankrolling the assassination plan. What’s worse, Justin and Carrie realize something crucial is very, very wrong with their plan. The summit is only forty-eight hours away and they still have to stop the Saudi prince, dismantle the assassination plot, and save the life of Tripoli’s target.

Tripoli’s Target promises to take the reader through a great story as it becomes the next international bestseller. Fans of David Baldacci, Vince Flynn, and Daniel Silva will love this high-octane spy thriller.

The second one, Tripoli's Target, was released on October 4. The third book, Fog of War, is expected to come out in the summer of 2013. Ethan has also published several short stories.

REVIEWS
5.0 out of 5 stars Fast Pace, lots of action, realistic scenario October 6, 2012
Format:Kindle Edition
I am growing to really enjoy Ethan Jones writing. He brings good action, good scenario's, good characters together to bring a read that you will enjoy. If you like spy novels, Tom Clancy, or Vince Flynn you will enjoy Ethan Jones.

His action hero's are agents who work for the Intelligence service of the Canadian Government, yeah that's right, the Canadians. While we think that they are just the Northern neighbor's of the U.S. without much in the way of action we find that a different fact when reading Ethan Jones.

The story starts out with a very realistic look into the mind set of a terrorist who is part of a cell that is going to target Tripoli with multiple car bombs. Their interest is to sew anxiety but also to create a diversion into what the group really wants to have happen. Justin Hall and his fellow operatives come into the picture through a different project that they are working but soon discover that the stories are going to overlap.

The characters are well developed, the writing is crisp, the story timely and the action is non stop and well developed.

There are many different sub plots that will be running through the work. Such as the Romantic life of the operatives who are wanting to get back home, but keep getting pushed into another adventure. Or the sub-plot that maybe Justin Hall's boss is actually trying to get him killed! Maybe she has sold out her agents, or does it just appear that way?

Another sub-plot is how the agencies of different countries don't always get along. The Israeli's are targeting terrorist, but don't care if a Canadian gets in the cross hairs. The U.S. wants to protect their own interest but really don't care what the Canadians are finding out and that their work will add the Americans if they will just let them.

Oh, and don't forget the terrorist and wealthy Arab oil Barons. Tripoli's Target is a great read, one that will keep you on the edge of your seat and will leave you wanting more. Jones' first book, Arctic Wargame wsa good, but with this book you can see that he is developing his writing style and getting better and better. Now I can't wait for the next book in the adventures of Justin Hall.
Enjoy!

Buck Reilly went to hell and back in Red Right Return. In Green to Go, it’s a one-way trip. Good news turns bad fast, and the bad just keeps coming in this thrilling new Buck Reilly adventure. The unexpected contents of his parent’s Swiss bank account offer Buck a chance to dig himself out of the hole he’s been in since the recession hit, but first he must recover the treasure maps and clues he lost at sea. Those plans get put on hold when a friend is accused of orchestrating the biggest theft in Key West’s sordid history, and the FBI uses Buck's past against him to demand that he search for the thieves who fled aboard a hundred year-old schooner.

No good deed goes unpunished, and Buck’s dogged by greed and double-crosses from Key West to the Bahamas and points south. His hunt for the missing treasure pits him against a crazed mercenary, Peruvian rebels, rogue Cuban Secret Police and a beautiful woman torn between turning Buck over to the authorities or succumbing to his charm.

Buck’s a lot like the rest of us—trying to make ends meet and hoping for better times.
