Dylan
Maguire returns to his native Ireland with psychic spy Vicki
Boyd. Their mission: to locate and extract a CIA Agent who disappeared in Dublin while on the trail of a
known terrorist. But when Dylan receives word that his grandmother is dying, he
is plunged into a past he thought he’d left behind forever. His mission and the
dark secrets he’d sought to keep hidden begin to merge into an underworld that
could cost him his life. He must now confront his past demons and the real
reason he left Ireland —while Vicki harbors a
secret of her own.
Suspense
Magazine says, “p.m.terrell’s writing is powerfully written and masterfully
suspenseful; you have to hang on for the ride of your life.” Midwest Book
Review says the Black Swamp Mysteries series is “page-turning action,
unforgettable characters, breathtaking descriptions and unexpected plot
twists.” And syndicated reviewer Marcia Freespirit says the series is
“riveting, spell-binding, sexy and intense!”
Teaser excerpt:
“Why are you so adamant about not going back?” Vicki said. “I don’t
understand.”
He strode to the back door. With his hand almost on the knob, he stopped
abruptly and turned around to face them. “The flight is a hundred hours long.”
“It’s six hours,” Sam said.
“I’ll have jet lag for weeks!”
“Two days, tops.” Sam’s voice was becoming quizzical.
“Are you afraid of flying?” Vicki asked.
“No!” he bellowed. He opened the kitchen door.
“The weather there is atrocious!”
“I can’t believe you’re acting like this is such an inconvenience for
you!” Vicki shouted.
“In me whole life,” he said as if he hadn’t heard her, “it’s rained
once.” He held up his finger. “One time!”
“Really?” Vicki said. “Once?”
“And it’s lasted for thirty
years!” With that, he
marched outside and slammed the door behind him.
Vicki and Sam stared at the door for a long moment without speaking. Then
she turned to him. “I’m at a loss here.”
He continued staring at the kitchen door as if he hadn’t heard her.
“Do you know why he doesn’t want to see Ireland again?” Vicki asked.
“He can’t refuse a mission,” Sam said quietly. “You can’t pick and choose
your missions in this line of work.”
Vicki turned to stand directly in front of him.
“Do you know,” she said in a stronger voice, “why he doesn’t want to see Ireland again?”
He looked at her as if seeing her for the first time.
“You know, don’t you?”
He looked away from her. His eyes roamed the kitchen as though he was
searching for something. Vicki stood her ground until he said, “No. I have my
suspicions; that’s all.”

Ingeborg, thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment. I'm so glad you enjoyed Vicki's Key. I think you'll love Dylan's Song. Secrets of a Dangerous Woman came in between the two books; I think you'd enjoy that one, also!
bn100, thanks for faithfully following the book tour!
