Heat of Hydration by Dwight Morgan Jr.




Hello everyone.  I hope you are having a great day.

I must have a slow mental clock. Yeah, you can hold the comments, I'm gonna get lots of phone calls from my sisters saying my mental clock is so old it is a Timex.  ("It takes a licking and keeps on ticking."  No, don't make something dirty out of that, it was their real slogan.  It must have been a good one as I still remember it.)  Anyway, before y'all were insulting me, I was going to say it feels like we should be approaching the 4th of July.  I just don't understand how it got to be Christmas time already, despite that we have had SNOW in coastal NC twice already.  Most years we have none.  I have a point, I promise.  The holidays are coming, and I want to tell you about a book I have not read.  I should have, morally, not to mention it is a thriller, which are my favorites.  To be honest, I was so fortunate to receive an autographed copy in the mail from the author, months ago.  I had already agreed with various publishers to read (within a specific time) several books to be released early next year. Hubby saw today's book, sitting, waiting, deserving to be read.  He jumped in with both feet, as the storyline fascinated him.  I still will be reading this book myself.  However, since the holidays are coming, I wanted to make sure you knew about this book for gifting to your reader pals.  So, to avoid additional delay, the review below is what hubby had to say.

I recently read Heat of Hydration by Dwight Morgan Jr.  This intricate story involves a terrorist attack at the United Nations.  The world is in the capable hands of ex-special forces Colton Gray.  After discovering a disturbing plot to raise funds and a construction design in the new United Nations building set to blow up on its inaugural day, the race is on.

Hubby loved the book.  He won't tell me what happens so as not to spoil it for me, but I can report that he was highly entertained.  He said the chapters change with each character's narration, which he enjoyed.  Well written, the pacing was true thriller.  The military tie was especially intriguing for him as we live in a huge military area, in fact, the home of Seal Team Six.  He said this would make a great gift, especially for men who want lots of action.  However, as a thriller lover, he insists I will really like it too.  

Again, I will be reading this and will report back.  I didn't want you to miss out on a great gift idea because I am so pokey.

Huge thanks to Dwight Morgan Jr., not only for the story hubby insists is right up my alley, but for successfully keeping him out of my hair!
