" ~ J. Carson Black, New York Times bestselling thriller author " DV Berkom will keep you turning the pages late into the night." ~Ed Kovacs, author of Locked Down "[The Last Deception] sucks you in on page one and doesn't set you free until the end . Another sure-fire winner in a spectacular series." ~ Tim Tigner, International Bestselling Author of the Kyle Achilles series "What do I say that I haven't said before? I could dive into Mr. Roget's best seller to try and find some alternative words for 'captivating, page-turner, thrilling', but I'll keep it simple: it's another bloody good book by a bloody good author." ~ Cath-n-Kindle Book Reviews "If you've ever read Berkom's Leine Basso books, this one will come as a surprise, but a pleasant one, as it shows our heroine in a decidedly more humane light as she goes to war to protect the innocent. If this is your first one, you'll be hooked for life on the toughest main character in thriller fiction today. Everything from dialogue to descriptions works to move a compelling story at a breakneck pace that will leave you breathless." ~ Charles A.

Highly recommended must read." ~ Steve Bonczyk DV Berkom is the USA Today bestselling author of action-packed thrillers featuring strong women. Her love of creating resilient, bad-ass female characters stems from a lifelong addiction to reading spy novels, mysteries, and thrillers, and longing to find the female equivalent within those pages. After years of moving around the country and skipping off to locations that should have been movie sets, she wrote her first novel and was hooked. She now makes her home in the Pacific Northwest with her husband, Mark, and several imaginary characters who like to tell her what to do. Her most recent books include Fatal Objective, A Plague of Traitors, Shadow of the Jaguar, and the Claire Whitcomb Westerns Retribution, Gunslinger, and Legend.
