Brief reviews of two excellent thrillers:
Dark Spies (Spycatcher #4) by Matthew Dunn
To be published October 7, 2014; William Morrow
I've enjoyed all Dunn's Spycatcher thrillers. The action is superb though a bit violent in parts but the plot is excellent.
Intelligence operative Will Cochrane is hunted by his former bosses, the CIA, for having disobeyed orders on a mission, even though he did so to save the life of another CIA operative under fire. There is more going on, however, and Will is determined to find out what, as he risks his life to get back incognito to Washington D.C. and the mysterious Project Ferryman files.
I rated this 4.5 stars on goodreads
I received a review ARC/galley from the publisher.
Dog Beach by John Fusco
Published September 9th 2014 by Touchstone
Genre: action, thriller
Story of an aging Hong Kong stuntman being chased by the Chinese triads in California reminds me of Jackie Chan, who could play the part if this were a film. This thriller set in Malibu is written by a screenwriter who has written the sequel to "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon."
I rated this 4 stars on goodreads.

Dog Beach does indeed sound like it is right for Jackie Chan. I wonder if they are considering a film.
ReplyDeleteThese sound like two good thrillers.
