REVIEW OF DEADRISE BY ROBERT BLAKE WHITEHILL

After the first reading of Robert Blake Whitehill’s, DEADRISE (book 1 in the Ben Blackshaw Series) the intricacy of the plot, the intriguing and quirky men and women that fill this fabulous book swept me away. It called me to reread it a 2nd time. To allow me to be once again carried away by the smell of the sea and the exquisite and complex plot, to be captured by the multifaceted and colorful Smith Islander’s as they band together to save their island and culture.

So captivating did I find this book as it gripped my mind as I stepped once again upon Smith Island, cavorted with its strong men and women. And I joined them to fight off terrorists, the henchmen of a dirty politician, led by the narcissistic Chalk, who would as soon kill friend or foe, in his determination to find Ben’s father Dick Blackshaw and the gold he had stolen.

This book contains all the elements that make a book great. I’d put it up against any of Michael Crichton or James Patterson and believe you would find it the winner too.
DEADRISE carries all the elements of suspense, mystery, love, heartache, loss, greed, and heroism, in this intriguing book. The strong male and female characters both the good and the evil ones show us what mankind is capable of in its glory and greed.

I for one look forward to Robert Blake Whitehill’s next book in this series as well as anything else he may write. He is a master storyteller and drew this reader in the book where I lived for a while and still ponder its people.

I loved this book for it showed me both the good and bad in people, gave me insight into a highly dangerous type of person and kept me gripped with anticipation for the next page.


HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!!
