Title: Deadly Shoot: a gripping murder-mystery with a spectacular twist

Author: TJ Brearton

Genre: Mystery, Murder Mystery

 

Book Blurb:

 

THEY CAME TO MAKE A MOVIE...THEY GOT A MURDER INSTEAD.

Mack Banner hasn’t made a movie in fifteen years. He’s been laying low, raising his daughter, hoping not to be recognized.

 

When a hot new screenwriter writes a script for him to star in, he’s drawn out of hiding to a remote island off the coast of Maine where part of the film will shoot.

 

Only, the screenwriter, on location for some last-minute rewrites, is suddenly missing. And as the crew spreads out to search for her, a storm brews on the horizon.

Soon they’ll be trapped, and people are starting to turn up dead...

 

Part Agatha Christie, part action thriller, DEADLY SHOOT by bestseller TJ Brearton will have you on the edge of your seat figuring out “who done it” as Mack races to keep his friends and loved ones safe and to stop a brutal killer before it’s too late.


Perfect for fans of Shari Lapena's AN UNWANTED GUEST, Alex Michaelides's THE FURY, and lovers of all things psychological murder mystery thrillers!

 

My Review:

 

See How They Run

 

There are times when I think my job here is almost cosmic in how things mesh. The past weekend I found myself caught up in See How They Run and it just boggles the mind. This week I read Deadly Shoot. Another jaw dropper of a book that boggles the mind in a great way.

 

Mack is the book. Mack's character is what the book is about. There is a great scene with the island. There are many great scenes from Mack's world. I couldn't figure out who did it but that wasn't my goal.

 

I wanted to see how the life of Mack led to this point and how this point was because of the life of Mack. That analysis of the character of Mack made this a fantastic read that I found hard to put down.

 

My Rating: 5 stars
