Private Detective Jake Wayde doesn’t know why he received a letter containing a piece of a puzzle. However, he soon realizes that he’s in the middle of a deadly search for ten million dollars in cash and a world changing chemical formula. It’s now kill or be killed. “People are dropping like flies,” says Wayde, “who the hell is killing them?”
It now becomes his task to stop the killing spree caused by the late, vengeful chemist, Dr. Fredrick Rhineman. The renowned chemist had instructed his secretary, that upon his death, to mail prewritten letters containing a pieces of a handmade puzzle, to the twelve people he hated and the ambassadors of China, Saudi Arabia, Iran and Russia. As the letters are received and opened, they instruct that when assembled, the puzzle pieces will reveal the whereabouts of a deadly world-changing chemical formula and ten million dollars in cash.
Guest Review Puzzle Of Death: Detective Mystery Thriller by Donahue B. Silvis
Review by Sal B.
I was a bit hesitant in deciding to read this book. I was warned that it is quite violent in parts. I don’t mind some violence but it sounded like it may be too much for me. However, the book description really drew me in and I decided to give it a try. I am so glad I did!
I won’t include the description because it is already posted above. I flew through this book as it is so hard to put down. Just when I thought I was coming to a good place to stop reading for the night, another twist happened. There are more twists in this book than in a sailor’s rope! The characters are numerous but so engaging and believable. I do think the violence could have been toned down a bit but that is my personal taste, not a fault with the book. The premise is unlike anything I have read before and I mean that in the best way possible. Kudos to Donahue B. Silvis for his writing and fresh take on a detective novel.
4.5/5
