For Seller

What certainly stood out for me in Barry Southers novel,
Queens and Crescents, was his strong and deep feelings
for his family that Barry made apparent in the dedication for
this book. The love and appreciation he shares here is
actually quite touching. The introduction does a good job of
setting up the book through a discussion of happiness and
success in today’s society.

Readers will find plenty of action and suspense in this
murder romance novel. The main character here is Sean
Martinez, a 28-year-old divorcee who works a mundane
position in a mortgage broker firm. For Sean, life is just one
day blending into the next. He just could not get over his wife
leaving three years ago with her old lover. If there were a
need for an example of a man in dire need of a vacation,
Sean would be chosen.

Spurred on by a radio commercial one excruciatingly hot
day, Sean’s vacation destination is decided for him. There,
he finds true love, fascinating passion and discovers the
power of intuition and fate. Cruel crime lords fighting for
position, bloodcurdling hired killers and a heavy loss bring
Sean back into living life for what it is.

I was impressed with Barry’s writing style because I could
really picture the scenes in my head. I felt he delved deeply
into the psyche of his characters, making them seem much
more real than many authors are able to do. Queens and
Crescents may take readers only a day or two to read, but
the characters will remain alive in their minds for a number
of days.
