Customer Reviews

Adirondack Detective was a big hit with me!

I just finished Adirondack Detective last night. John Briant weaves an alluring tale of intigue, mystery, romance, honor, and integrity set in NY's own Adirondack beauty. Having traveled through the region yesterday on business myself made reading the last 50 climactic pages last night even more exciting. John's special way of writing made me feel like I had become old friends with all the characters in Adirondack Detective - As I ate lunch yesterday in Old Forge I could imagine these fictional people coming into the diner and taking their places there as well beside me. John presents his story in a way that honor's the beauty and reverence of the Adirondack region, and it leaves me wanting to come back there again and again. I take my hat off to you John Briant and eagerly await your next book. In the meantime I recommend Adirondack Detective to anyone who admires and respects the nature and beauty of the Adirondacks (or any great park in our nation) and who enjoys a great intrigueing mystery - romance story. The only problem I forsee is settling the arguement between my two teenage daughters as to who gets to read my copy of Adirondack Detective first!

Great Story

I found Adirondack Detective to be a very entertaining story. The lead character, Jason Black, came across as a down to earth, real person. As a central New York native I was able to relate to the scenes of action, especially St. Regis Falls. I hope Mr. Briant uses this as the first of a series featuring Jason Black.

Great Insight

As a resident of the Adirondacks it is clear that the Author has great insight to the workings of the area and its people. He makes it very easy to relate to the times and the surroundings. A superb Murder Mystery.

Very well written

Don't read very many books, but really enjoyed this novel. Thought that the plot was well laid out and kept your interest from cover to cover. Character was played out very good also. Not the usual murder mystery story.
