Sounds like ...That tea will do it everytime, Leigh. Sounds like everyone enjoyed Gayle's post. If you have not read Gayle then do so whenever you can. She writes awesome realistic characters and outstanding locales with plenty of twist and turns to satisfy any thriller soul. Yes we have a mutual admiration society but that can happen over maybe 25 or so years. Don't take my word for it. Read for yourself.

My excuse is it was after midnight and I was drinking… tea.<br /><br />As Gayle says, Jan has written at least two series with personable characters. Once series reminds me a little of a female Spenser and Hawk.<br /><br />And as Gayle suggests, I need to find out about women espionage writers.

There are few women who publish traditionally in the international espionage field today, but the ones who are doing it, as you can imagine, are especially good. Please come on over to www.RogueWomenWriters.com and meet us.<br /><br />Thank you, Jan, for reprinting my post. BTW, for those who don't know Jan's writing, you must read her!

It...I agree with Gayle about The Day of the Jackal. It's an amazing book in every way she describes. But the most amazing is the fact that Forsyth keeps you literally on the edge of your seat and if you know the slightest bit of history you know de Gaulle was not assassinated. So knowing the outcome ahead of time and still being on the edge of your seat is a truly fantastic feat.Paul D.

One of my favorite colleagues mocked that and even gently ridiculed my having a ‘feminine side’. If you met me, you’d realize there isn’t the least thing feminine about me. I tried to explain I like getting into the heads of my favorite species (so to speak). Thus I can understand, if just a little from the mirrored side.<br /><br />Love that line that words aren’t a food group.<br />Leigh Lundinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07921276795499571578noreply@blogger.com
