“Steven James was one of last year’s best surprises. In this second Patrick Bowers novel, James ratchets up the thrills and chills, the twists and turns, and our connections with the characters. This is first-class suspense, with threads of wisdom tying it all together. I’m panting for the next book already.”
“Steven James does it again! The Rook is a riveting nail-biter that takes the reader on a wild ride of suspense, thrill, and danger. Steven James delivers a powerful storyline that seamlessly combines the edginess of contemporary crime-solving stories with the real-world struggles of romance, broken families, loss, and honor.”
“Steven James introduced the game in The Pawn and now continues with the intriguing, spine-tingling adventures of FBI agent Pat Bowers in The Rook. Steven James’s ability to use modern investigative techniques to solve his criminal mysteries places him at the forefront of current mystery writers. [This is] a book you hate to put down even when you reach the end.”
“Steven James has certainly done his homework. His level of detail and knowledge in the area of the military characters is superb. Having spent a large portion of my life in the US Navy Special Forces defending our country in such locations and situations, I can say that he has hit the nail on the head on this one. His characters almost come to life as you read his books. I could not put this one down! Top-notch work.”
