Product Description

Product Description

Praise for the books of William Casey Moreton:

"...Moreton keeps readers hooked." -- Kirkus Reviews

"....Moreton is a superb and inspired storyteller and with so many mediocre books being published, this is a relatively rare feat." -- Deadly Pleasures


For fans of Lee Child, Robert Crais, and Dean Koontz, here is white-knuckle suspense at its finest:

Having survived careers in both the Army and the FBI, Ryan Archer is now content to live a quiet life in a tiny apartment above a surf shop in Santa Cruz, California. He has few possessions and few friends. He works part-time in the little shop downstairs, and spends most of his free hours out on the open water with just his board and the waves. But he is about to be pulled back into action by a voice out of one of his former lives.

He is asked to keep a woman named Lindsay Hammond alive for the next 72 hours, as an army of street thugs, career criminals and professional assassins press in around them from every direction. As they go off the grid, surviving minute to minute, cutting off all contact with the outside world, Lindsay learns to trust Archer in a way she has never trusted anyone before.

WILLIAM CASEY MORETON grew up in the South and graduated college in 1993 with a degree in Religious Studies. He is the author of seven novels, including THE STRANGER BESIDE YOU, NEVER BACK DOWN, and THE SEARCH. Moreton is a member of International Thriller Writers, and lives with his wife and children in the Midwest where he is at work on his next book.

Ok so there are a few typo's and yes people do stupid things that in real life you probably wouldn't do BUT this story zips along and sweeps you along with it. When Lindsay Hammond's life is thrown into turmoil, Ryan Archer is the only man to keep her safe. I found this an easy and enjoyable read.

1.0 out of 5 stars Gave up 8 Aug 2012
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
After a gripping and explosive start to this book I was looking forward to a great read, however very shortly into the book the irritation began. I found the book poorly written and the characters though full of potential did not grip. However it was the, what I can only describe as 'teenage horror movie' actions which really annoyed me. The characters constantly did stupid things - akin to the girl going up to the attic, in the dark, to see if the ax murderer is there - which were unrealistic if you were to believe in any of the characters credentials. I plowed on until about half way through but when the women decides to give one of her protectors a call to pass on a telephone message when they are out stealthily tracking down a team of hit men that are circling I gave up in disgust. I have only once before not finished a book and vowed I wouldn't give up on a book again, however I had to break my rule as I was not prepared to waste anymore of my time on this nonsense. Unfortuantely my advice would be don't bother with this read.
