 |
Worth Dying For. Reacher takes on a Nebraska clan involved

GRUBER, Michael |
The Good Son. To quote the
author: "it's about a woman who gets kidnapped in Pakistan and about her
son who devises an elaborate plot to get her free. She's an American
married to a Pakistani, and she's one of my oddball female characters, a
Sufi and a Jungian therapist. He's a special forces soldier..."
But being one of Gruber's intense female characters (remember Jane Doe
from Tropic of Night?), you have to wonder who is rescuing whom... and
from what. The action is relentless and the interplay of ideas, faith
and cultures will resonate long after you are able to put the book down
(I found myself re-reading many passages and sections). What a blast! |

NEVILLE, Stuart
|
The Ghosts of
Belfast. Author's first novel and Partners' Pick
is a haunting literary dirge of a thriller about the 'troubles' of
Northern Ireland. Former IRA hit man Gerry Fegan sees dead people: the
ghosts of those he killed, assigned targets as well as innocent
civilians caught in the crossfire. Neville walks a razor’s edge as he
balances Fegan’s need for personal atonement (we’re talking ARMED
personal atonement here, folks) against the complexities of a social
order that desperately wants to Move On. This is a scorching and moving
noir debut, the first book in a projected series. |

STEINHAUER, Olen |
The
Tourist. Author's first
espionage novel with Milo Weaver, a troubled CIA operative. Look for
the film in 2011 - from George Clooney's production company. Really fine
and truly merits comparison to LeCarre. |
