5 out of 5 stars!

Edge of my seat. Amazing!

Wonderful writing, well described characters and plot. This whodunnit surprised me with...well, *who* done it!

Fast Paced Thriller!

I’ve recently discovered Mr. Maxwell’s novels... this being the 4th one I’ve read in as many weeks. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed each of them!! He draws you in with nonstop twists and turns and keeps you guessing throughout.
This is sort of a prequel to his “Reason” series of novels, letting the reader get to better know one of the characters from that story.
I am very (as my grandkids say) technology disadvantaged yet Mr. Maxwell has a way of incorporating a basic education in the subject that even I can understand.
You won’t be disappointed in any of his works. I certainly wasn’t and in fact just ordered the next book in this series, and am (im)patiently waiting for the next installment!!

Miles Maxwell is Always a Great Read

Kept me on the edge of my seat. Full of conspiracies, action, heroes, and heroic acts.
I love this book but what's not to love! It is suspenseful and keeps you on the edge of your seat! I felt in the room with Naomi and her three "friends" it was so descriptive. Twists right to the end!
— Holly Paul

Diabolical!!!!!

Kept me on the edge of my seat. Full of conspiracies, action, heroes, and heroic acts.
First time ever for my sleuthing skills to be completely fooled by the perpetrator.

The Story

The world's number one best-selling novelist and his wife are found dead in their east Florida beach home — from no apparent cause. Something outrageous has been done to the bodies.

FBI Special Agent Naomi Soul and her partner Xue Sang are ordered to solve the crime.

On the west coast of Florida, another best-selling author is murdered. The method is both horrible and graphic. Are the two deaths connected? The MOs are completely different, but the two authors knew each other well. One thing is clear. Someone is killing authors using the methods in their stories.

Then, as more famous corpses are discovered, the killers begin burning libraries.

These terrorists seem unstoppable. What is their ultimate goal, to destroy the publishing industry? Naomi and Xue may be the pop literary world's best chance to survive.

Naomi plays a crucial role in Franklin, Everon, and Victoria's investigation — figuring out who destroyed New York — in Book 3 and 4 of the State Of Reason mystery: Finding Reason and Escape To Reason.
