Good new series for me, featuring Jonathan Grave, a hostage rescue specialist who will do whatever is necessary to complete his mission, and more, if necessary. This one starts on high octane and never lets up. Hired to rescue a college-aged kid, Grave (a/k/a Scorpion) along with his sidekick Boxers (a/k/a Big Guy), he is drawn into a case involving his ex-wife, her investigative reporter beau, and the college kid's family, which cannot afford his freelancing talents. Of course, there is a much more serious plot, which Grave unravels while being chased by am ex-FBI, local cop where he eliminated the kidnappers. Looking forward to reading more. (

Non-stop action. A real page-turner (if you can still use that term for an e-book). I was hooked right from the beginning.

After enjoying Nathan's Run so much (which was Gilstrap's first book), I just had to try another. This is the first of his series featuring Jonathan Grave, a hostage rescuer for hire. This book follows a more traditional thriller format w/ the ex-military hero, his trusty, very accomplished sidekick, a female tech genius and a priest for a best friend. With this intriguing mix of characters, the story moves quickly through a kidnap rescue and the requisite screw ups and recovery, some mystery, some great bad guys, etc. Bits of back story are revealed which help flesh out these interesting characters. I liked it so much, I'm on to the next...... (

Another fast-paced action thriller with a high body count. Jonathan Grave takes on what seems a regulation kidnapping case but quickly degenerates into a much more personal case. Not for the faint hearted. (

Convoluted; rather sophomoric (
