Death Never Sleeps Review, Guest Post & Giveaway

Book Synopses:

Death Never Sleeps (Book One)

The problem with Alex Nicholas is that he won't stay dead.

Alex Nicholas was the consummate Queens bookie: fast cars and even faster women, and friends in all the wrong places. As an illegal sports betting and loan shark king in New York City, Alex was fearless-until the night his luck ran out and someone leveled the silver barrel of an automatic on him and pulled the trigger.

Michael Nicholas was everything his brother Alex was not: a powerful, married straight-arrow corporate CEO living the American Dream. Their two worlds collide when Michael discovers his brother's secret laptop.

As Michael crosses the globe to find his brother's murder, can he avoid his brother's fate? And can the information contained in the laptop help Alex reach out to help Michael-from beyond the grave.


Death Logs In (Book Two)

Some of the most powerful people in the world want to kill Michael Nicholas. Only his brother, Alex can save him - the problem is that Alex is dead.

It's been almost a year since Alex Nicholas, a Queens based underworld Boss, was gunned down. After Alex’s brutal murder, Michael inherited not only his brother’s business – but his enemies. Michael is now a key player in a world he once feared. By day, he is the head of a Fortune 500 company by night, the CEO of Tartarus, one of the worlds largest illegal gambling operations.

Before his death, Alex invested heavily in breakthrough artificial intelligence software so that he could live forever. It worked. In his virtual form, Alex can communicate with Michael and monitor information - and people - in ways the NSA would envy.

It is Alex who discovers Michael’s life is in danger. He detects plots that reach from the darkest corners of Queens, to the highest officials in the Vatican - and they all want Michael dead.

Michael is now in a race to save his life, but he is never alone - Alex is there to help him navigate through this maze of life and death. Also protecting Michael from the forces closing in around him is Sindy Steele, a beautiful - and lethal bodyguard.

How far is Michael willing to go to save his own life – and that of his family? Guided only by a familiar face on a computer screen, will the information Alex discovers allow Michael to go from being the hunted to the hunter?

Favorite travel spots


My favorite places to travel are the ones I frequent as scenes in my books: Paris, Florence, Rome, Saint Tropez, Saint Paul de Vence, Newport, RI, Miami, London, Chicago.

My two favorite places to visit are Paris in the winter where my wife and I spend about six weeks each year and the South of France in the summer – Saint Tropez, Saint Paul de Vence, Saint Remy.

I love to be able write scenes in these places while I’m there. When I’m home and write about them – it’s like being there again.

My review:
Death Never Sleeps is the kind of book that when you start reading it you like it even though it is not your usual read. Michael is a good guy and his brother who has always been the opposite of him has just been murdered.  Michael is totally unprepared when he finds the laptop his brother had hidden away. From the moment his brother is killed his life changes forever. Michael must find the killer to keep himself safe.  Will the laptop be able to help him stay safe ? I give this book a 4/5. I was given this book for the purpose of a review and all opinions are my own.
