Road Kill

Tom Rollins is on the move again, this time through the state of Washington. Behind him in Alaska he has left a cabin he blowed to pieces and the woman that owned it. In Road Kill by Paul Heatley he stops for gas only to see a young girl being manhandled by some rough characters, of course he has to interfere. That lead to a wild hunt and an actionfilled story about children abuse in a sect like church. Is Rollins in over his head this time? Will he save the girl and get her to her brother? Well, the book is out in stores April third and then you should get it and find out. Paul Heatley has written another great fast paced action thriller and I highly recommend that you try his work. I must thank @netgalley and @inkubatobooks for letting me read this advance copy of #RoadKill and #PaulHeatley for coming up with these stories.

Paul Heatley has created a great action hero in Tom Rollins and Road Kill in the 5th novel in the series.<br />Tom is in Washington state having driven south from Alaska, seeking out new employment, when he comes across a young girl being manhandled by a group of males at petrol station. Tom being Tom intervenes and rescues the girl, Taylor, and before you know it he is being pursued by a group of henchmen all affiliated to a local church and it’s crazed leader. What follows is lots of action, violence and car chases and possibly a description of one of the most gruesome deaths I’ve ever read !! <br />I’ve read all five Tom Rollins novels to date and thoroughly enjoyed them. I’ve got to say these type of action novels aren’t my usual fair but I’m a fan of Paul Heatley’s other work too and this series is also a bit of a departure for him. I see that the sixth novel has also been recently released and think I’m going to dive right in and catch up with Rollin’s latest adventure.

My second outing with Paul but my first with Tom and well quite frankly… I LOVED IT!!<br /><br />Guys! I have found my new Reacher. As you may remember me and Jack went on a break after book 13 due to his actions in Hope and Despair and I always vowed to go back to him, and I still will, but for now I have Tom *sigh*<br /><br />Ok, so Tom was a bit like Jack, and got involved in something that wasn’t anything to do with him but this time I felt it was justified! A girl was in trouble!<br /><br />This is book 5 in a series, which before reading I had no idea but it works perfectly. I don’t feel like I am missing anything, for all I knew this could be book 1! However, I now have 4 books to get acquainted with Tom a bit more.<br /><br />He is the guy you want in your corner, in your life or just fighting for you. He doesn’t back down and he can handle himself. I mean Tom vs 8 guys…well there was only 1 winner…literally.<br /><br />I love Paul’s writing style. I love the high octane thrill of it. I was turning the pages so quickly in the last 5 chapters because things were INTENSE! I mean we all knew there would be only one outcome but it was how the frick would we get there! Paul sucks you in with the intrigue and intensity straight away and it doesn’t relent. But at the same time, it loses none of the passion, the thrill and at no time was I bored. It has everything I want in an action thriller. It is engaging and the plotline, although we have seen it before, was done in a way that I found refreshing as if I was reading it for tge first time.<br /><br />I am now going to be fighting anyone for the next book in this series or by Paul, whichever is first. Just loved this adventure!

I was inspired by the recent Reacher series to go back to this genre and I am glad that I did. This was a fun,adrenaline inducing read and I just devoured it. <br /><br />Now need to investigate more by this author.

I was given this arc for an honest review. <br /><br /> The story picks up with Tom having left Alaska and is now in Washington. Stopping for gas he sees a girl being manhandled towards the bathroom of the gas station. Asking what the problem is and being told to mind his business, he of course does not. After defeating those men he tries to get information out of the girl.<br /> Taylor wants to tell Tom what is going on but it only comes out slowly and not before he is stopped by a deputy. After that he works on freeing her again and once he finds out what she wants which is to get to Oregon to be with her brother and his wife. This might not be as easy as it seems. Tom has to use every skill and them some throughout this book. The story is fast-paced and will keep you going from the opening pages to the end which I must say even that surprised me as well. A very good story and one of the better books in the series. Very much worth the read. I received this book from Netgalley.com<br />

<strong>Not good</strong><br /><br />Tom Rollins is just a watered down version of his former self. I got halfway through and I couldn’t read the rest. The action and fight sequences we’re just so full of stupid decisions that a former operative or Tom Rollins in the first book would never make these decisions. They were just plain ignorant and Because they were so bad, I found myself just skimming the pages to get to the end of the conclusion. I wonder if the author even remembers the first and second book where Tom Rollins appeared. The author definitely ruined a good character. I guess I won’t have to wait for Tom Rollins book 6.

Escaping the 'Ogre' is never an easy task for Taylor. He always finds her. <br />Ogre the pastor along with his most trusted men from police to mayor have secrets. Secrets that could put them away for life.<br />Former ops Tom cannot stand to see someone in trouble. It's only natural for him to step up and help.<br />When a teenage girl is in trouble he steps in to help. <br />Action packed drama, suspense and danger as Tom and Taylor begin their journey from Washington to her brother Oregon narrowly escaping Ogre's men.<br />If you have triggers please move on. <br />This author is new to me and I thoroughly enjoyed Road Kill. Looking forward to more of his books.

Tom cannot see anyone in trouble - he is compelled to help. He sees a teenager being dragged to a car at a convenience store. This is the starting point of one of the most fast-paced stories I read so far this year. Members of a cult are exploiting minors and it seems like no one in town acknowledges it. This story has a lot of action, and many leads that do not end well. It sure provides a few hours of great entertainment!.<br />I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Tom is former special forces guy who wanders the country and seems to get pulled into helping people when he comes upon bad situations (kind of like Reacher &amp; Widow) but with a car.<br /><br />He is in the state of Washington having come from Alaska and his last "adventure" and happens upon a bunch of thugs manhandling a young teen girl. Of course, he can't let it go and it starts from there. Taylor has run away from her captors - again but this time she finds help.<br /><br />Lots of action and bad guys getting beat. It's a strong 3.75 but I rounded up.

This is an excellent read.<br />Wonderful well written plot and story line that had me engaged from the start.<br />Love the well fleshed out characters and found them believable.<br />Great suspense and found myself second guessing every thought I had continuously.<br />Can't wait to read what the author brings out next.<br />Recommend reading.<br /><br />I read a complimentary advance copy of the book; this is my voluntary and honest review.
