Book Review - Mind Over Murder: A Jake Roberts Novel Book 2 by Cary Allen Stone

Book Review
Mind Over Murder: A Jake Roberts Novel (Book 2)
by Cary Allen Stone

Book Description
Jake Roberts returns in the thriller MIND OVER MURDER--the sequel to AFTER THE EVIL. Lori Powers had fled the U.S. after leaving a trail of dead men behind. She has been returned to the U.S. to stand trial. Once again, Lori escapes, only this time it's to save Detective Jake Roberts' life from a new serial killer in town. Not your average murder story, MIND OVER MURDER is the perfect serial killer read!

Available to buy from...
Amazon.co.uk   Amazon.com   Barnes and Noble

Our Book Review
The second instalment of the escapades and adventures of Jake Roberts is an excellent follow up to the first book, After the Evil. The detective is facing a very puzzling case of yet another serial killer who is leaving no clues behind.  He finds that he has to turn to Lori Powers who had fled the USA after leaving a trail of dead men and now has been captured and awaiting trial. 

I really like the authors' ability to touch on the human side of the character especially the emotion they feel and the psyche that drives them. He is a no hold bar writer and takes you into the dark side of a persons persona which leads to excitement, tension and a lust for revenge. A very easy book to read and follow.  

Although this is the second novel involving Jake Roberts it can be read without reading the first as the author explains as we go through the previous history. 

Another excellent crime novel and a must read for all fans of that genre.  Again the only disappointment is the fact that you will finish the book quickly.

About the Author
Cary Allen StoneCary Allen Stone is a brilliant writer of psychological thrillers and murder mysteries. He writes with a keen eye for detail-the graphic violence is chillingly realistic. He delivers a taut, darkly introspective, cunning and well-executed plot by leaning towards the fallible side of his characters. He understands the criminal mind avoiding the stereotypes that dominate crime thrillers. There is a good balance of chemistry and conflict, good and evil that fans will find enthralling. His characters become embedded in our psyches and the pace of his unraveling of his thriller is a ride not easily forgotten. Cary Allen Stone is an important name to watch. This is one superb crime writer!--Grady Harp Top 100 ReviewerVine Voice 2014

In addition, he had a non-speaking character role in an AAA Club advertisement and has done voice-over radio commercials. He is currently working on his next Jake Roberts novel. He is a member of the Phoenix Writer's Club, the Arizona Authors Association and The Desert Sleuths, Author Social Media Support Group, International Thriller Writers

    I enjoy psychological thrillers, though I probably prefer the historical setting rather than the modern one, for pure escapism. Sounds like a fascinating read.

    I do love when an author is able to describe his characters fully--I just finished a book like that as well! I will definitely have to look into getting this book.

    Sounds like a thrilling read! I may have to read the first one before this one, but I like that I wouldn't have to.
