This was one bumpy ride. I couldn’t believe the speed at which this book read, 3 hours, and I was done. Amazing
Curiosity killed the cat, and it was one such fated day when Alex decided to be curious on his walk where he found a piece of paper with a website, user name, and a password. Giving in to the temptation, he entered the Dark Web and realized the site was for contract killing.
An assassin’s web, so to say, and he was caught when someone followed his digital footsteps. The hit men soon chased him, the cops branded him as a pervert and murderer, involved in 6 murders, two were hunting him down. His family was destroyed. How would he get out?
My first book by author Richard T. Burke, and it was mind blowing. A thrill-a-minute readathon. The author’s writing cast a web around and left a trail of crumbs for me to follow, deeper into the tangled mesh where I knew resisting was of no use. I just had to follow the story till the last page. I was too caught up in the intriguing narration.
The book did not allow the main character to rest too. He was walking, running, limping, hopping, and at one point, traveling in the bumper of the car to stay one step ahead of the killers. But all was not lost. The author added a good Samaritan to the team, an assassin turned protector, who helped to save Alex’s life. The book took some deep twists and turns, and there were times I was barely holding on.
The writing was fluid, with an atmospheric feel of a race against time. Short, snappy chapters made the pages fly. What a rush!!
I devoured this book, and then politely asked the author to release me. And he did!! Well, here I am writing this review!! 😂
NEVER SWITCH OVER TO THE DARK SIDE. YOU’VE BEEN WARNED BY AUTHOR RICHARD T. BURKE!!
I received a free ARC from Caroline and the author, and this is my journey into its pages, straight from the heart!! STRICTLY HONEST AND UNBIASED.

Wow – 242 pages in 3 hours – you are a phenomenon, you absorb words twice as fast as I do!
This was fantastic pulled me into its dark web
I’m glad that the author released you. I would have come to set you free otherwise😂😘 But how in the heck do you read so many pages in so little time? I would probably read this in 8-9 hours if not more😮😮
I always release my readers – eventually 😂
Hahaha… But Richard what a way to be entangled 💃💃
Hahaha it was fabulous
Sounds good and I am a definite fan of short chapters. Wonderful review, Shalini!
Thank you so much. It was really great
Fabulous review as usual🤗This one seems to have so much action, no wonder you read so quickly!
I loved this book had so much fun with it. Thank you so much ❤️
I’m not usually drawn to thrillers but, wow, this one looks really good! I might never check out a website from a fallen piece of paper after this haha
Hahaha me too. Thank you so much ❤️
Great review Shalini. This sounds like a very interesting plot, not one I ever would have thought of. Who knew lurking or checking out someone’s site would end you up in so much trouble, of course, I would never venture into the dark web. Adding this one for sure.
Somehow I managed to miss your blog, Shalini, but I’m glad I found it. Thanks for the great review. I’m delighted you enjoyed my book and that you spread the news!
I am so sorry. I forgot to tag you on Twitter.
Most important question – when is your next book coming out?
