One of the most talented authors is at it again with a fiery and stellar adventure in The Blackbriar Genesis. Simon Gervais supplies everything you need in this Treadstone based thriller with stellar plot creation, supreme character development, and some of the most badass action scenes around.
The need for a dark program arises after one of the United States Deputy Secretaries is almost gunned. Treadstone is falling by the wayside, or already has, it really doesn’t matter. Blackbriar is now the new fresh toy in town with Helen Jouvert and Donovan Wade globetrotting doing America’s shadowy work. Jouvert and Wade are on a mission to figure out what is going on when a long vetted Treadstone agent is killed and the plans for meetings and travel itineraries are showing up about American dignitaries. Jouvert and Wade must battle through a number of conflicts and numerous bad dudes as they try and figure out the connection between the Russians and the Mexican based cartels. Why would the two be teaming up and why is an American social media addiction going to lead towards the hopeful downfall of a nation?
Gervais is a writing gunslinger, delivering shot after shot of clever dialogue and endless intrigue. Do yourself a favor and check his work out. I have been a fan since Mike Walton, and I have waded through the Pierce Hunt and Clayton White destruction, and this is just another feather in the cap as he continues to impress. The storyline is always refreshing, locations unmatched, and the way he draws you in is so simple. He is worthy of all the praise you'll be sending him soon and he is so deserving of writing a Robert Ludlum universe thriller. The plot is murky at first, intentionally, then the action reaches a peak tempo for a majority of the story and won’t leave you asking when the fires are starting to burn. Simon Gervais will light a fire under your butt and you’ll absolutely love it.
