I haven't read the SPECTRA files novels, to which Smoke and Dagger was a prequel, but I liked the cover so I wanted to give this book a try even though I had no clue what to expect.

The Basics Billy Moon is an international rock star. He should be happy, but he’s haunted. He’s fairly sure he might’ve forfeited his soul when he agreed to become famous, and with his next album in the works, he feels like the devil himself is on his heels. My Thoughts I feel like I should’ve...

This has everything I want in a thriller. Believable characters, real emotions, an interesting backstory, some historical context and lots of action! Fantasy writer Desmond Carmichael lost his wife a year ago when she was murdered letting the dog out at night. He's struggled since then to raise ...
