Bøger af D B Woodling

From the author of Shannon's Revenge comes the riveting love story of how it all began. Shannon Cook has escaped the tyranny of one man only to find herself under the oppressive rule of another. Suddenly abandoned in America's deadly frontier, she discovers herself at the mercy of a ruthless banker, consumed with deep-seated vengeance, and a town determined she pay for her father's horrific misdeeds. Emily Dunsmire has survived her share of abusive husbands and more than one notorious Confederate guerilla, but it's a catastrophic secret that may be her undoing. Fugitive gunfighter Luke Richards, running from both the United States Army's retribution and devastating memories, has sought both refuge and solace just outside the sleepy town of Leeds, Missouri. But when his path crosses that of two beautiful Irish emigrants, he soon realizes he hasn't run far enough. Immersed in mystery and lyrical prose, with its vibrant characters and distinctive narrative, Retribution: A Lovers' Tale is a timeless love story of courage and resilience, beautifully capturing the extraordinary passion that defines the American spirit.

For some, espionage, terrorist bombings, foreign invaders, and a demanding lover signal pandemonium. But for NYPD Detective Mike Malone, it's just another Tuesday. Following on the heels of her critically acclaimed novel, Shannon's Revenge: Broken Promises, D.B. Woodling delivers another work of equal merit. With its propulsive story, magnetic and complicated characters, this riveting thriller will keep you guessing. The novel opens with Malone seated in a courtroom when the inconceivable happens. As he struggles with the resultant tragedy, a terrorist targets the New York City Transit Authority and a renowned department store in the heart of Manhattan. As the dust settles, someone unleashes a suspected nerve agent within a crowded park. This time it's personal. Grappling for answers, his exhaustive search places him in the crosshairs of CIA Operative Natalie Pace. Ignoring her command to stand down, Malone soon realizes he's in over his head as he faces a much broader eminent threat. When a high profile homicide takes place, and the FBI has footage linking Malone to the scene, Woodling propels the story into high gear, serving up enough tension and gut-wrenching suspense to satisfy the most discriminating reader.
