The Julie O'Hara Mystery Series,by Lee Hanson in order

Castle Cay (Julie O'Hara #1)
When her closest friend passes away in Key West, Julie O'Hara knows he never would have
committed suicide. On her behalf, there's only one issue: Was it an accident, or was Marc
Solomon slain?
A body language expert, Julie takes her knowledge along with her hunch and flies to Boston for
the memorial service, where she meets Marc's handsome and dangerous brother, Avram,
whose griefstricken
stance doesn't deceive her at all.
But the mystery is Castle Cay. Julie learns an astonishing fact from a well known Beacon Hill
attorney about a place she never wanted to think about again...the Solomons' private island in the
Abacos.
One step ahead of real danger, Julie enters Key west, only to find herself cornered by a frantic
killer, having pulled a string that unravels a deadly conspiracy...and on her own troubled past.
I liked this book, but it felt like there were some gaps that could have been filled.Little more
character development for one,the plot is amazing and the mystery is there nice first book well
worth the read.


                                                 Barnses@Noble
                

This is the book two in the Julie O'Hara series, coming after Castle Cay. And to say that I was
amazed is an exaggeration.
Julie O'Hara is a body language specialist; someone who has primarily worked with attorneys to
assistance in picking juries. Now Julie will be using her unique skills in clearing up what looks to
all to be a suicide. After all, she is the first one to have found the victim and has seen the scene a
little differently than the police did.
This book had me hooked right from the begining and the idea behind Julie and her profession is
a unique one since I've mainly only seen "body language experts" being used as secondary or
tertiary characters. This was plotted very firmly, with only just enough clues as was absolutely
essential. It took me by surprise when the true attacker was finally discovered. The characters
Julie and her boyfriend Joe, a private detective and her partner in this book, are appealing and
very likeable.
The only flaw in this novel was that the dialogue between some of the characters seemed a bit
stiff or boring.good read i like it.

Swan Song: The Julie O'Hara Mystery Series (book 2)


                                      Barnes@Noble
        

Mystral Murder, Volume 3 The Julie O'Hara Mystery Series

With Mystral Murder, Lee Hanson has created the finest Julie O'Hara story to date. It is one of those books you will find hard to stop reading, because it is plotted so well and the characters are thoroughly gripping.

Chatting of the plot, I do not want to give too much away, but let us just say that the author has  written a story that will live long in the memory. The psychological centre of this fine book is Julie's wonderful relationship with Joe. The reader gets the opportunity of watching these superb characters face a number of challenges together.
This is by far best book of the series it is a easy read i enjoyed it,.

Doctor Sleep: A Novel by Stephen King (Author) review [King's long-awaited 36-years-later sequel to 1977's THE SHINING.]

Stephen King comes back to the character and location of one of his most wellknown
works of
fiction ever, The Shining, in this instantaneously riveting story about the now middleaged
Dan
Torrance and the very unique twelveyearold
girl he must save from a tribe of murderous
paranormal s. As i have always said about every other King book is worth reading this King's
longawaited
36yearslater
sequel to 1977's THE SHINING this one of the ones you want to
read.
This novel didn't replicate the level of horror as The Shining. However, I was not very old when I
read the initial novel and the miraculous terror of The shining can't be entirely recaptured. This
book was as fantastic a sequel as could ever have been anticipated to follow up a story that
holds that significant of a position in our combined pasts.
Tend not to read this book if all that's necessary for you is to return to The Overlook Hotel and
insane Jack Torrence. Neither of them are revived except as a summary of Danny Torrence's
historical past. The Overlook Hotel burned up. That's how Jack Torrence, died when he failed
save the Overlook by not removing the defective boiler.. There are reflects from the past,
rehashes, but this isn't as much of a sequel as it is a new story starring old characters.
King quickly updates us on what transpired to little Danny and his mother Wendy, as well as the
old cook who shared the shine with Danny. That update was pretty damn scary in it's own. I
won't tell you, but some revisitations
were made.
In Danny's adult years the story becomes less insanely crazy/scary than the first book.
Nevertheless, King's storytelling and ability to scare are still incredibly strong. This is a different
tale entirely than The Shining, with only a little overlap. Don't expect to encounter that same level
of terror and you won't be let down.
There was also a very human side of this story. Death and dying, the fight for sobriety, King dealt
with a lot of his personal demons I believe. He is 65 years old now, a time when many individuals
reminisce.
Read it you will enjoy the story it is number 8 on Amazon best seller list

Inferno by Dan Brown,mixed reviews, more controversy is it good or bad?

.Inferno by Dan Brown,mixed reviews, more controversy is it good or bad?
In his blockbusters The Da Vinci Code, Angels & Demons, and The Lost Symbol, Dan
Brown masterfully merged history, art, codes, and symbols. In this captivating new
thriller, Brown comes back to his element but this is not the Da Vinci Code or Angels
and Demonds but is better than the Lost Symbol.This book has very mixed reviews
people love it or hate it and i am no different i loved parts of it hated other parts,at times
it was like a boring history class at times your in the middle of a thriller. Da Vinci Code
was better but this is a good book if you skim through the 2 chapters of history
lessons.Read it
Robert Langdon awakens in a hospital in Florence forgetting how he arrived there or why he is
there. Final thing he remembers, he was strolling to a lecture where he instructs symbology at
Harvard University in Boston.
He's told he was been shot, and his assailant had another attempt on his life; murdering one of
the doctors who was treating him. Sienna Brooks, a young female doctor saves him and they
must soon avert both the US government and a ominous looking set of agents guided by agent
Cristoph Brüler.
Langdon and Brooks evade all many people to reveal that there is a virus that is going to be
launched by the famous biochemist billionaire, Bertrand Zobrist. Zobrist is a hard core believer of
Malthusian catastrophe "
The power of population is so superior to the power of the earth to
produce subsistence for man, that premature death must in some shape or other visit the
human race. The vices of mankind are active and able ministers of depopulation. They are the
precursors in the great army of destruction, and often finish the dreadful work themselves. But
should they fail in this war of extermination, sickly seasons, epidemics, pestilence, and plague
advance in terrific array, and sweep off their thousands and tens of thousands. Should success
be still incomplete, gigantic inevitable famine stalks in the rear, and with one mighty blow levels
the population with the food of the world." To avoid this "Inferno"Zobrist has
determined to take issues in his hand and lessen the world's population.
Inside Dante's Inferno lies clues that will direct Langdon, Dr. Brooks, the Consortium a
powerful
firm that is for hire, and Dr. Elizabeth Sinskey the
leader the World Health Organization to
the
location where the virus is being launched. The audience is exposed to quite precise information
of Florence, Venice, and Istanbul as the plot expands, twists, and is finally exposed to the tune of
Liszt' Dante symphony at the Istanbul ancient cisterns.

The novel is a well researched story. The twists and spins are remarkable; it's a page turner.
Couldn't get my head out of it, read it in 4 days. I found myself researching for maps of Florence,
Venice, and Istanbul to follow Langdon's quest. for once you open its pages, you'll be captured in
this intriguing tale, and you will also be reexamining
what you thought of Dante's work
