DEAD RECKONING
BY
RONIE KENDIG
Once I started reading Dead Reckoning, I became entrenched. This novel reads like an action-adventure movie, with suspense and conflict on every page. It moves really fast, sweeping you along for the ride.
On her first large-scale dig, archeologist Shiloh Blake becomes trapped in the middle of an international arms clash. She’s on the run! As she spots a man trailing her, she wonders who he is, and how is he always one step ahead?
Reece Jaxon is a former Navy SEAL and now serves his country as a spy. His life is entangled by the beguiling Shiloh Blake, as he hunts down the sources to a nuclear dead drop in the Arabian Sea near Mumbai, India.
The only way to end this nightmare and prevent a nuclear meltdown is to join forces with Reece. Will Shiloh violate her vow to never become a spy?
What I really liked about this novel is that Ronie Kendig pays such painstaking attention to the technical details of her characters, plot and setting. The reader is thrust into every scene from the start, and emerges breathless, but panting for more. The dialogue is witty and intelligent without depending on trends.
If you are a reader of action-adventure, suspense, thrillers, and even romance, do not miss reading Ronie Kendig’s debut novel, Dead Reckoning.
