Date: 07 18, 2012
Shades of Robert Ludlum with a complex, suspenseful plot that has many twists and turns keeping the reader turning the pages. STARTLING CONNECTIONS has plenty of international intrigue, thrills, suspense and romance to keep the reader engrossed. It takes you around the globe in a tension filled, action adventure. Some profound thoughts on the fight against terrorism are skilfully weaved into the story by the author.The story involves Sofia and Larry who meet by chance and are torn apart when Sofia is kidnapped by terrorists. Larry travels the globe to find Sofia. While searching Larry learns of a major terrorist attack of horrific proportions. Together, they try to stop the terrorist attack.This novel keeps you guessing and culminates in an intense climactic ending that kept me reading until the very end because I couldn't put it down. Just had to know how it all turned out.An impressive debut by Peter Leschner and I can't wait for his second novel. Hopefully it's coming soon. 5-stars well deserved!
