In Boiani’s (The John Corbin Series) plot-driven, punctuative stand-alone sequel, “time” itself is a central theme. There are flashbacks, countdowns, and tightly sequenced series of events. A serial killer is menacing Seattle and has called out John Corbin by name to work the case. As a retired detective, John exclaims in Michael Corleone’s words, “Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in.” Each time an untraceable email is received at headquarters, they are given 24 hours to unravel the cryptic clues to save the victim. As events intensify John with his equally driven rookie partner, Rick, stands in the crosshairs where his decisions impact and may damage his family and personal life, endangering everyone and everything he holds dear. As his traumatic past catches up to him, a loved one may fall and justice may not prevail. This penetrating, crime thriller demonstrates truthful insights into human vulnerabilities (physical, emotional, and mental) and perils encountered by those in the line of duty. Boiani offers a realistic portrayal of these officers’ lives. It is ideal for fans of James Patterson to reserve a slot in their bookshelves.

We are slaves to free will. We are all slaves to our choices. Just like I am choosing to write this book, here, despite the fact that Gabbler thinks I am insane for believing in it — believing this book is my history…. You may wonder how a person like me — a person who claims to be not only divine but a cat — can be typing this out now… I think Vulcan himself will enjoy such a twist. Perhaps, he would entertain the idea and that is how I end up here? For sure, you see, He lost control over His story…” As Volume Two  of The Circo del Herrero Series , you can notice the myriad squab...
