Customer Reviews

A very engrossing read.

This is the first David Morrell book I've read - but after Extreme Denial, I'm going to read his new book 'The Protector' quite soon. The plot is fast paced, high in action and suspense, with some very good story twists. Laying underneath all the action runs a very well written love story, adding some real emotion to the story, without which, I would have pictured Decker as an Arnie B-movie character in a book. The plot keeps you going right to the end, and keeps suprising the reader with interesting and shocking twists - I would recommend this book to anyone who loves suspense thrillers.

You can't deny how great Extreme Denial is

Morrell did it again. I have been a fan for Morrell's work for a long time now. I have almost every novel he has written and Extreme Denial is my favorite novel by him so far. It is amazing how great Morrell writes this book. Steve Decker just wants to have a new life outside of the CIA but when an old friend starts stiring up trouble he has to revert back into the CIA mode to save the women he loves and himself.The way the characters develop is great. From Decker to Beth to Esperanza and others the characters are interesting and you want to know more about them. If you want to read a great book then buy this one.

no denial this is a no put down reading

My faith in Morrell is restored.Hands down he writes better than Tom Clancy who used to be a favorite for thrillers. I had just read Last Revielle and was downcast but this one put Morrell back as #1 for me. Along with a great description of New Mexico's dancing sun the fast action keeps the pages turning as Decker tries to depart his CIA life and lead a new relaxed role as a realator. He sells a beautiful woman a house right next door to his. It doesn't take long for the two of them to christen his new bed and only two hours later for explosive action to rock him back to his former on the edge life style. Turns out it was the lady the bad guys were gunning for and when she disappears after her house is blown apart, Decker realizes he was finally in love and resents the intrusions into his new life. With the help of a local cop he chases his old nemesis to a thrilling ending where he finally faces the woman he thought he had killed on his last assignment. You won't want to put this one down until you have traveled thru all the unexpected twists and turns Morrell takes in this adventure,

faster than a speeding bullet

What a read! Excitement from the beginning until the final page. David Morrell surely can write with the James Bondish lines and believable content. His research is extremely precise, from his geographical facts, through his combat and covert knowledge. I will plan on reading all his novels and advise all to do the same.

Extreme thrills!

Morrell is my favorite author of international intrigue.This novel is great illustration as he combines his trademark:violent chase thriller format with noirish suspense and moving love story.This novel has it all: spies,gangsters, terrorists,romance and violent action.
