Dear Great Book Guru, With Valentine’s Day fast approaching,
I am looking for the perfect gift … and, of course, that means a book. Do you have something special to
recommend? Valentine Gift Seeker
Dear Valentine Gift Seeker,
How lucky are you? Just this week the latest in the Jason
Stafford mystery series has been released: SAVING JASON by esteemed Sea Cliff author
Michael Sears. While I have loved all
the books in the series: BLACK FRIDAYS, MORTAL BONDS, and LONG WAY DOWN, this latest is the best yet. Jason Stafford is
a talented former Wall Street trader who was sent to prison for insider trading.
After being released, he began a new, very lucrative career as a financial
investigator. The novels all involve fiscal malfeasance of some sort with this
latest focusing on a hostile takeover, but they are more than just financial
thrillers. Sears has created a colorfully diverse
community of villains, friends, and relatives- with special focus on Stafford’s
young autistic son Jason( aka the Kid). Much of the storyline deals with the joys and
challenges of parenting, and when Stafford and the Kid are placed in a witness
protection program, these challenges multiply. Sears’s writing is always dynamic
and the plot, while intricate, is always believable. Highly recommended!
