Enticed by Culpa: A review of the brilliant former CIA analyst Morgan Jones’s novel
September 28th, 201112:17 AM ETI, just this minute, finished reading Culpa. My eyes haven't cleared yet, so please forgive any typos. This was s-o good.

My first concern was that Mr. Jones penned his tome in the third-person omniscient voic... -

Captivating, Impeccable, and Plenty of Action: A review of L.D. Alford’s Centurion
July 28th, 201112:39 AM ETL.D. Alford has outdone himself, in my estimation.

Oh, okay, and there’s some romance, too, but it didn’t intimidate me, as a guy. ... -
