Over Lago de Maracaibo, Venezuela
Jordan Sandor was strapped into the small cockpit of the BSG-29 glider. The C-47 twin engine that had been rigged to draw him up into the moonless night began its run down the tarmac. There was an abrupt tug as the towrope was yanked taut, then Sandor felt a second more violent jerk as he was lifted into the air. (ch. 1)
What do you think of the opening sentences of Targets of Revenge, a Jordan Sandor thriller? Does the tease make you want to read on?
Publisher's description:CIA Agent Jordan Sandor is on the hunt for the cold-blooded sociopath known as Adina, whose indiscriminate slaughter of innocent people, including Sandor’s close friend, represents man at his worst.
The teaser does catch my attention. I have this one on my TBR stack and hope to read it soon. I look forward to your take on the book.

ReplyDeleteSounds exciting! Happy reading :)
ReplyDeleteI would need to read a bit more to decide. Enjoy the book.
ReplyDeleteSounds action packed, but at this point it sounds like it could still go either way. Hope you enjoy.
ReplyDeleteI am not so into book openings that begin with action. I kind of like the philosophical/musings beginning myself. So this one is not an attention grabber for me.
ReplyDeleteUh oh!! I would keep reading a bit more!
