"Wicked Greed", by John W. Mefford




Greed thriller #3

A shadow of death swallows up one beautiful young lady after another…and no one can stop it.... in the end, lives will be forever changed. And one will not survive......grrrrrrrrrrrrr

Michael, the main character, continues to work hard at the newspaper when he find himself investigating horrible murders of young women, each had massive slashes to the throat... gruesome scenes hard to swallow ...

With a powerful prose peppered with details we are taken on a wild spin of evil, greed and corruption. The scene setting is as brutal as it is necessary although we do have some comic relief in this tense story. It starts slowly and I wondered where the story was going at first but it didn’t take too long before the greed of flesh and lust was most prominent. Of course we have a side story in the mix I wondered at what point the two stories would mesh. Too entrenched by then I kept pushing forward eager to figure out who was behind all this. But Mr. Mefford had other things in mind that divulging too early the outcome teasing us till the very last moment.

In few words

In “Wicked Greed” we are in a complex plot doubled with intricate subplot everything wrapped nicely and played out with compelling characters. A fabulous story that had me turning pages quickly from start to finish.

Thank you Mr.Mefford for the opportunity to read this book.
