Publisher Description
In the first of an exciting new series, Donovan Creed, former CIA assassin and a smartaleck tough guy with a heart of bronze, faces his biggest challenge ever. While pursuing a budding romance with the beautiful Kathleen Gray, Creed stumbles upon a plucky, but horribly burned, little girl named Addie Dawes. Creed's suspicion about the fire that killed Addie's family puts him on a collision course with crime boss Joe DeMeo in what soon becomes an issue of kill or be killed. DeMeo, a relentless killer who will stop at nothing to protect his empire, targets Creed and his loved ones for death. But Creed has plans of his own. Employing a bizarre cast of characters, including a giant, a rival crime lord, an angry midget bent on world conquest, and a team of circus clowns, Creed goes on the attack, with hilarious results. Lethal People is a bizarre, breezy and exciting thriller with excellent pacing, snappy dialogue and quirky characters who will keep you chuckling late into the night. "Donovan Creed, a former CIA assassin, is a very tough man with a weakness for very easy women. Meet him in Lethal People-a relentlessly entertaining crime novel that's often LOL funny! The action is fast and furious, the dialogue smart, savvy and sexy, and the story is filled with quirky characters and clever surprises. What more could you want when you turn the last page except the next Donovan Creed crime novel? Patience, please. You'll be reading Creed's next adventure in the very near future. Lucky you!"-Gerald Gross, freelance editor

" A fun read with larger than life characters and a plot to match. Worth a read if you have a few hours to spare on the beach or somewhere similar. Will certainly read the follow up. "

" I became totally hooked on the Donovan Creed series with this book and quickly read them all. How can you come to like a hero who murders without a conscience? John Locke is the consummate story teller. "
— David, 9/19/2011 -
" Tried out one of the 99 cent Donovan Creed novels. Fast action, great dialog. Hard to beat for the price. "
— Steve, 9/18/2011 -
" I don't really know how to categorize this book. Not really a mystery, more of a thriller. Interesting characters but more anti-hero than hero. How can you possibly like a main character who kills people for a living? "
— Julie, 9/13/2011 -
" Love this series. Super fast, fun, light read!! Read all the books in a few weeks! "
— Erin, 9/6/2011 -
" This book was good for a crime book. Nowhere near as stylish and intelligent as "the girl with the dragon tattoo" series, but it was entertaining. "
— Maria, 8/30/2011 -
" Worth 99 cents. I would not spend $8.99 on this but I'd buy another one of his books to keep on Kindle when I need something to read. "
— Gregory, 8/23/2011 -
" Mildly entertaining, but it won't win any awards for beautiful writing. It's also riddled with bizarre changes of tense at random intervals that were very distracting and made reading this annoying at times. "
— Camilla, 8/19/2011 -
" Oh, I loved this book! I bought several of John Locke's books for my Kindle. Glad I did! "
— Kirsten, 8/8/2011 -
