SHE'D DO ANYTHING TO SAVE HER SISTER'S LIFE. . . . Rachel Kirby is a computer genius whose personal life is falling apart. Even as she stands on the brink of a stunning technological breakthrough, her beloved younger sister is plagued by a rare chronic illness that will eventually kill her, leaving Rachel all alone. SAVING HER SISTER’S LIFE HAS PUT HER OWN IN GRAVE DANGER. . . . But thousands of miles away archaeologist/adventurer John Tavak has made a priceless discovery in an Egyptian tomb. A discovery, Rachel realizes, that humankind has been seeking throughout history – a secret that may save her sister’s life and many thousands more. But a powerful organization is also in white-hot pursuit, led by a man who will stop at nothing to get what he wants. IF SHE COULD JUST GET HER HANDS ON THE CURE . . . Against all odds, Rachel joins forces with the brilliant, enigmatic Tavak in an adventure that will take them across three continents, and it will take all of their wits, instincts, and cutting-edge technology to bring to light an ancient civilization’s most amazing legacy. And together they must race to unravel the explosive 4,500-year-old secret before it is lost to the ages. With Johansen and Johansen’s trademark research, fast-paced action, and charismatic characters, Storm Cycle will blow you away. . . .

"A fu, fast-paced due from the mother-son team. This one involves a computer genius, a rare disease, and a 4500 yr old tomb in Egypt, plus assorted baddies, etc They do these well, with just the right amount of action, not too gratuitous, add some romance, and a dash of science and history."

" more on science end- focus on woman cuaght in intrigue as she attempts to cure neurological disease "

" This read was o.k., some interesting things about computers, but the main character annoyed me too much. "
— Donna, 2/20/2014 -
" Read this for book club. This was an action/adventure type book that I normally wouldn't pick up, so maybe I'm a little biased in that regard. I thought the dialog was very middle-school level. I don't think it was written well at all. Most of our group didn't like it but thought it would probably make a great action movie. "

" This was an okay book. It was pretty predictable. It didn't hold my attention the way a good action packed thriller should be. It was too easy for my mind to wander to the point where I would have to go back and reread the last page. "

" Pretty good yarn- stepping away from paranormal and into technology. "
— Gail, 2/5/2014 -
" It was ok....more the Egyptian tid bits than the story itself.... I did finish, mildly enjoyable....... but not a top choice. would I look for these authors again? probably not go out of my way, but if they show up on the library book shelf would likely read another.. "

" This book made me stop to think what the world is like for those people that are geniuses and off the charts. It would be very difficult, I think. The challenges they face are vastly different and yet in some ways the same. "
— Sabrina, 2/3/2014 -
" The story line was good. However, some of the characters names were similar; so had to stop and think who they were. All in all a good read. "
— Mary, 1/26/2014 -
" These books are all pretty good...this one along the lines of Indiana Jones; possibly the weakest of the 3 in terms of main character likability, but still a fun, fast-paced read. "
— Stoli, 1/18/2014 -
" Your average mystery/action book, written by a mother-son team. "
— Monika, 1/18/2014 -
" Typical Iris Johansen... If you like her plot structure and types of characters, she doesn't deviate from that at all in this book. Overall, an enjoyable read but nothing new in this one (save the plot specifics). "
