A Sneak Peek At A Few Books Releasing In February 2024
YEAR OF THE LOCUST – TERRY HAYES
Finally!! This book, the second for the I Am Pilgrim author, has been long delayed. Kane is a CIA operative for whom boundaries have no meaning. His job is to do whatever is required by whatever means necessary. Tasked to exfiltrate a man with vital information for the safety of the west from an area known as the badlands in the middle east, he will face an adversary unlike any he has encountered before. I admit I am nervous about this one. His first was outstanding and it’s a lot to live up too. And one must wonder why this suffered so many delays…you’ll know my final thoughts once I have read and reviewed. Stay tuned!

At 94, unexpected results on an at home DNA test throw everything into question about the family she has claimed as her own for decades.
