"The Woman From Death Row", by Peter Hogenkamp

A Jade Stryker Thriller book #1

This is the a fictional story of two doctors one Jade Collins who grew up on the seedy side of Los Angeles finds herself on death row after killing a man who had been abusing one of her patient. It is also the story of Dr. Mark Brand whose life has sent him on a downward spiral till the day he meet a powerful man he once knew and gave a reason to move forward. Mark is sent to San Quentin to meet Jade and to get her off death row...that is what he did...and the story begins.

Loved, loved this story I simply couldn’t put it down it is so active, exciting and well executed. On the run Jade and Mark have a hard time trusting each other and while encountering obstacles they managed to be one step ahead of whoever was chasing them. Not only did they have the authorities to dodge but a string of bad guys also were on their tails. All along the story Mark develop a “thing” for Jade but reciprocity doesn’t seem to be there. Will they survive this dangerous assignment and really what was it? Of course Mr. Hogenkamp teases us from the start to finish with tension and expectation and finally by the end we know why Jade was sprung out of death row and who Mark really is. The storyline is original and captivating. There are no dull moment I wanted so much to see what would come next, with fire under my fingers I needed to flip the pages to see if our two escapees will make it out alive or not. Will they be together yes or no....you are not left wondering by the end you know the answer and of course the giveaway after all this...book #2 is around the corner.... I up my hand volunteering to read it. I simply love Jade and Mark they are great characters and to boot they played excellent roles.

Well-done, well-said.

Thank you Mr. Hogenkamp for this ARC.
