Characters that are believable vividly described and a plot that will keep you glued to the printed page and hoping for a sequel." -Fran Lewis Blogger at Just Reviews

"This is a fast-paced adventure filled with conspiracy and murder as Frazier's experience and instincts kick in and he recruits the help of two members of his former team. Together they band together for one last desperate mission." - Alan Caruba Bookviews

"Arts and Crafts is a book of intrigue and yet it is also a human interest story. Most of all this is just a fun read and one which both the younger and older generations can follow with a sense of humor and background cheering. A very well thought out plot." -

"If you've ever wondered where CIA black ops personnel go when they get too old to kill an opponent in one deadly blow then this entertaining novel may provide some answers...the book is very cleverly thought out and while the reluctant hero that is Sam Flagg grows into his role we just cross our fingers that the three old men at the centre of the counter-plot do not succumb to their various infirmities before the conspiracy is defeated." - David Prestidge Crime Fiction Lover
