Another 5-Star Review
Another 5-star review
Here's what Damascena posted on Amazon.com for Damaged Goods:
"Thisis is the first Hannibal Jones book I've read, and it is a delight on all levels. The writing is excellent to exquisite. the characters are believable (including the hero, who can do amazing things, but is still extremely human). the setting is lovingly and meticulously drawn, in several locales, and the story left me absolutely breathless on more than one occasion.
I especially enjoyed some of the side action, for example, the examination of hip hop music ...with which I am absolutely unacquainted, and the insight into lifestyles with which I do not have, and will never have experience. they added texture and color to this book, without detracting in the least from the story line. In fact, the author drew all the threads together in a smooth, professional manner that impressed me.
Toward the end, I admit to thinking *now* what's going to happen? And something always did, but, surprising and delighting me, what happened was never quite predictable, so I didn't mind what seemed an extended climax. All in all, this is a wonderful read, and offers more than a little of more than a few things for any reader."

FREE Action Adventure Novel
If the movie "Battleship" looks interesting to you, you need to check out my submarine adventure novel "The Piranha Assignment." It's FREE on Kindle for the next 5 days, and a great introduction to my Stark & O'Brien thriller series.

Another 5 Star Review!
Here's what M. Simpson "Kindle lover" posted on Amazon.com about Damaged Goods:
"Great novel. It surprised me; it was different from the previous Hannibal Jones mysteries. There was less beating up bad guys and more vulnerability. As usual, the characters were all very interesting and very unique. Read this one!"

The Piranha Assignment has helped me have a pretty strong internet presence. Readers Entertainment News posted a guest blog post from me on their site - readersentertainment.com/.../austi n-camacho-reveals-the-genre-assignment
Hi Austin, Thanks for being a friend. Your video was great. "Blood and Bones" sounds like a mystery with a very different, yet interesting kind of twist.
hay You are pretty hot there! lets get freaky on cam! www.slick-cam.com xoxo bye xoxo
hi hi Hey sexy! Im live right now at www.quick-camz.com baby bby
I had a great Saturday at the all-day seminar "A World of Fiction Writing" at American University, jointly sponsored by Washington Independent Writers. The speakers were great, especially the web-savvy team on the "Writers' Blogs," panel, and my fellow authors on the genre writing panel. I had to leave a little early to get to the Borders Books & Music in the Capital Shopping Mall. I spent two hours there signing copies of Blood and Bone. I got a great welcome from those folks and will surely go back... when they've had time to order more books. Then Sunday I paid a second visit to the Borders Express at the Dulles Town Center. Paired with fellow crime novelist Rique Johnson, we became more of an improv comedy team than a pair of writers, but together we signed a pile of books. There's more in my blog.
MEET ME TOMORROW IN VA Tomorrow (Sunday) I'll return to Borders Express at the Dulles Town Center. Not only will I sign my books there from noon to 4:00 pm, but I'll be joined by fellow local mystery author Rique Johnson. Come see two authors for the price of one at 21100 Dulles Town Circle, Dulles, VA. If you live nearby, I hope to see you there!
HI!!!
