Strap on your weapons of choice, put on your favorite disguise and get ready for a book aptly entitled Double Mayhem.  Author Sam Berretti is about to take his readers on a whirlwind tour of the dark world of organized crime, espionage and industrial spying. Doris Watson is an ordinary woman, leading an ordinary life who has no way of knowing that accepting yet another blind date will place her in the wrong place at the wrong time with the wrong people.  This is a book where the bad guys are very bad and sometimes funny and the good guys are likable and always funny.  The only thing that would make this story perfect is a cute child and an adorable cat. Oh wait...enter Bucky the cat and a little girl named Linda who is also a psychic "when she doesn't even know she's being psychic".Double Mayhem, as the name implies, has two very convoluted story lines which run parallel throughout the book until they converge in a chaotic climax.  There were times when I had to read back to remind myself of who was who and what was what because we had the CIA, FBI, NSA and the mob vying for the same illusive goal, but all was clear in the end.  Along with all the scheming, murder and double mayhem, there is humor, romance and an international cast both good and evil.  To quote Doris' unorthodox mentor Della Jamay Charboneau "This whole operation is crazy!"Double Mayhem is well worth the read if you remain focused and keep the story lines straight. In this first book of the Seekers Mystery Series, we are introduced to a team of very special agents who, I suspect, will populate future books. I am especially looking forward to seeing more of Doris Watson AKA Maria Sebastian Nicole. Sempi Fi, Doris....Semper Fi!! :-D
