Donovan Creed, former CIA assassin, is a smart-aleck tough guy who can't resist a noble cause. Despite a ton of baggage and a penchant for call girls, he always finds a way to beat the bad guys. In this sequel to Lethal People, Creed is forced to choose between his thriving contract-killer business, his part in the lethal experiment, and his desire to live a normal life with the beautiful Kathleen Gray and her newly adopted daughter, Addie. Before that can happen, he has to take care of some lethal business involving a former lover. Lethal Experiment is a breezy and fun page-turner, featuring grisly humor, outrageous characters, and sexy dialogue. John Locke is the international best-selling author of seven Donovan Creed novels, all of which have made the Amazon/Kindle Top 20 Best Seller's List. Saving Rachel held the #1 spot for more than three weeks and remains one of the all-time best-selling e-books in the history of publishing. Locke has had four books in the Amazon Kindle Top 10 at the same time, and six in the Top 20. It is estimated that every 7 seconds a John Locke novel is downloaded somewhere in the world.

"Of the two early Donovan Creed novels, this is clearly the stronger o the two. The Rumpelstiltskin Loans subplot was intriguing and reminded me of a recent movie, but this novel offered a broader storyline and a different perspective. The novel does a good job making a character like Creed sympathetic, rather than a pure badass."
— Craig (4 out of 5 stars)
" Um, Donovan Creed is nuts. "
— Anthony, 2/7/2014" As much as I tried I couldn't get past about one third of the book. The story was too disjointed. It just skipped around without any flow. Definitely not his best. "
— Allene, 1/19/2014" I thought it was a quick fun read. I'm just a little confused on the end of the book... It left me wanting to read more--which is what I'm doing. Maybe this will help clear up my confusion! Overall not a bad book. I bought it on Kindle for $0.99, definitely way worth it! "
— Kristin, 1/19/2014" ehh...assassin, violence, murder, skullduggery. intersting peripheral characters. "
— Michele, 1/10/2014" A grossly amoral novel glorifying assassination; rife with profanities and vulgarities. The author has talent that could be better applied. "
— Calvin, 12/31/2013" Quite an interesting book, though it needed a stronger/more consistent main plot line... And I didn't really like the main character. "
— Tim, 12/17/2013" Terrible. Just terrible. A book based on nothing that uses weird character facts and bad jokes as a substitute for plot. "
— Matt, 12/3/2013" Will money bring out the best in human nature? Find out what a bag of cash will do to otherwise nice folks. Add in a couple of homicidal midgets and Donovan Creed is on the fast track to a nervous breakdown in his career as a paid assasin and part time hit man for the mob. "
— Ken, 11/21/2013" Yet again a really good fun read not to be taken too seriously, but loved it and the central characters seem to be developing nicely, looking forward to the next. "
— Nigel, 11/2/2013" excellent for a quick captivating weekend read! "
— Stephanie, 11/2/2013" Somewhat interesting premise, but fairly predictable. "
— Ekaddiellc, 10/1/2013" Read this on my Kindle...I enjoy the series. "
— Emily, 9/10/2013" Another good one by John Locke. Can't wait to get the third. Thank you kindle for being at my service anytime!! "
— Shalyce, 2/27/2013" Fantastic - Out of the tree I read - this one is by far the best. "
— J.E., 2/11/2013" We both liked this as much as Lethal People. What a fun read! "
— Robbie, 2/4/2013" Good book. I like that this series flowes well. "
— Jason, 1/26/2013" Pulp fiction for the kindle age. The price is right, the story hooks you in and keeps your attention and I could buy the rest of the series for less than one bestseller - and just might. "
— Bill, 10/13/2012" Loved it! Great books for the subway or planes. Quick reads and well written. "
— Pam, 6/17/2012" Good book, was not expecting the turn in the middle of the book. This author is a fun read. "
— Gerald, 6/3/2012" I liked this book. very fast read. I was hoping Donovan and Kathleen would get back together again. "
— Sharon, 5/27/2012" This took a really unexpected turn at the end...not a bad thing still a good story. 3.75 stars!! "
— Erica, 5/21/2012" I just finished Lethal Experiment. If you'd like to read a good thriller series, then Donovan Creed books as what you're looking for. Only 99 cents on your kindle! What a deal! "
— David, 3/22/2012" Umm okay odd still fun still not bad but odd as hell. "
