Publisher Description
International hit man Gideon never misses his target, but when a job in Detroit goes bad, he should have killed his client – a cold-blooded woman who hired him to kill her husband – when he had the chance. Now the city’s mayor and with money and power to spare, this woman will stop at nothing to see that Gideon gets what he deserves. Gideon soon finds himself in the crosshairs of two hired assassins: a seasoned killer known as El Matador and his voluptuous but ruthless wife, who dons Manolo Blahniks for even the dirtiest jobs. But when Gideon proves himself an impossible target, the lady from Detroit sets her sights on those closest to him. On the exotic island of Antigua, Gideon enlists the help of his friend and fellow assassin Hawks to square off against his deadliest adversary yet. Amid palm trees and white sands, sparks and bullets fly as Gideon must outsmart and defeat his pursuers before it’s too late. Featuring Dickey’s trademark blend of passion and suspense, Dying for Revenge is a pulse-pounding and deliciously sexy thrill-ride through a Caribbean island paradise.

"I think I read this book twice but I am glad I re-read it. I cannot wait to get my hands on book 4 of this series. Gideon has always remained in the back of my mind and I will probably read the entire series again in a few years because it just seems so classic."

Dying for Revenge Listener Reviews
-
" I really enjoyed the immense action in this book. I can clearly see this as a movie! EJD did his thing here. "
— Renee, 2/19/2014 -
" I found this book to be complete trash. It was horrible. I want it off my shelf as soon as possible. "
— Nora, 2/17/2014 -
" Probably too gory and too sexy for me to read, but it kept me entertained. I'd like to go to Antigua now. Dickey gets read a lot at the library and I was mostly curious. Not too much substance, purely for shock value. "
— Elvira, 2/3/2014 -
" The book was just okay. I listen to the audible book and did not care for the female reader. Having said that I still had issues with the characters. I understand that growing up can be difficult, but for the love of God there has to come a point when you take charge of your life and stop whining. In this book all of the main characters were whiners. The female assassin was like an overgrown child with shoe fetish that was stupid and the over use of the word "swavey" border on asinine. We the readers done have to be reminded of Gideon history throughout the entire book. By now everyone should (book 3) know it and if not just once would have been enough. "

" Great book love the Gideon series and EJD has Gideon driving through my hometown of Huntsville, Al. "
— Latrel, 12/19/2013 -
" An absolute piece of trash. Two dueling hit man named Gideon and El Matador. Neither one would last a minute on the street, nor would the woman hit hit person sho can't dress with out wearing Manolo Blahnicks. Give me a break. Rarely do I decide not to finish a book, but this book was irredeemable. "
— Bob, 12/6/2013 -
" I read it in a day. That say a lot right there. "
— Damika, 12/1/2013 -
" When I picked it up I wasn't aware it was the 3rd book in the Gideon series. I loved the first two, and the third installment was just as great! It's filled with action and adventure. I cannot wait to read Ressurecting Midnight! "
