Well, I heard that Punxsutawney Phil in Pa. (groundhog) saw his shadow and perdicts six more weeks of winter. Here in Texas, Bee Cave Bob predicted an early spring. Nacho the dachshund in Buda Texas predicted six more weeks of winter. Luckenbach Lloyd (armadillo) says "winter will last until it's over and then it will be spring." :)
I wanted to share the information on the ARC I mentioned in my last post.
Dead Liar by Ruth Nina Welsh was just published on January 29, 2025. I really liked this book and am recommending it.
"Jamie buried her husband two years ago.
But now he’s alive.
And she’s on the run.
Army nurse Jamie Shaw loses everything when her husband, Ed, dies in a tragic car crash. But on the anniversary of his death, her world shatters again. She glimpses a man she’s certain is her husband – and he is very much alive.
Jamie barely has time to process her shock before the unimaginable happens…
Armed men are invading her home. And she is running for her life.
How is Ed alive?
Why has he betrayed her?
And who are the armed men hunting her?
Desperate for answers, Jamie embarks on a perilous journey to find her lying husband. But she is unaware of the dangerous conspiracy about to ensnare her and the dark secret hiding behind a string of murders. Murders which her husband is at the heart of.
Will Jamie survive the sinister forces closing in on her? And can she help to expose their deadly secret? A secret which, if revealed, could change the world forever…
Dead Liar is a fast-paced, high-stakes thriller with a breathtaking twist. It will keep you on the edge of your seat until the final heart-stopping pages."
This book is very suspenseful and gripping, truly a page turner and hard to put down.
Jamie is trying to get on with her life after the death of her husband Ed. She goes to work as a nurse each day and then straight home. She is still having a difficult time after two years. Her only "social life" is virtual traveling. She sees the world through an online travel group. The only family she has is her father in law. When she sees her husband alive on an online travel experience, she quickly reaches out to her husbands best friend and notifies him she thinks Ed is alive. She then realizes she may not be able to trust those she thinks she can trust and sets out with Conor, who she served with in Afghanistan in the Army. But who can Jamie really trust? The more she discovers, the more danger she and Conor are in. At the base of this book is a thought provoking story about a pharmaceutical company, research and greed. It could be right out of the television series Greed. It is set in today's environment with modern technology playing a big part in the story.
This is a debut thriller for the author. You wouldn't believe this is her first thriller.
