MY REVIEW:<\/strong><\/p>\n

It took me a few chapters to become reacquainted with Ray Quinn but once that was taken care of, I was pretty well hooked. It was refreshing to find a fairly flawed hero – past his prime, physically handicapped, emotionally\u00a0 challenged, and an alcoholic. Although I don’t watch the series, I kept picturing Ray as Dr. House.\u00a0 It was probably the cane but for whatever reason, the image wouldn’t leave me.<\/p>\n

The Corruptible<\/strong><\/em> narrates the story of a case Ray has taken after starting his own detective agency. He soon finds out that the simple location of some stolen files turns into a murder investigation as well as attempts on his own life. With the help of sidekick Crevis, Ray works with his former police department cronies to get to the bottom of an increasingly puzzling mystery.<\/p>\n

Filled with plenty of drama, action, and humor, The Corruptible<\/strong><\/em> takes several twists and turns and reveals a few surprises before it reaches a satisfying conclusion. While not an overtly Christian novel, it does however include scenes in which Ray’s friend Pam attempts to share the gospel with him. I would recommend this book to those who enjoy novels from this type.<\/p>\n

ABOUT THE BOOK:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>How much money would it take for you to betray the truth?<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Ex-homicide detective Ray Quinn never had glamorous thoughts of the life of a private investigator\u2014but being cornered in a bathroom stall by the enraged philandering husband of a client? That\u2019s something he could live without. Retired from homicide and living with a painful disability, Ray\u2019s options are limited. Stick to the job, keep impetuous sidekick Crevis alive, and spend quiet evenings with trusted pal Jim Beam, that\u2019s about the best he can hope for.<\/p>\n

As a new client emerges, Ray finds himself in an impossibly large boardroom holding a check with enough zeros to finally lift him from his financial pit. The job seems easy enough: find Logan Ramsey, an ex-cop turned security officer who\u2019s taken off with sensitive corporate information. But few things are easy in Ray\u2019s world, regardless of the amount of zeros in the check.<\/p>\n

In what should be an open-and-shut case, Ray stumbles across Logan Ramsey in a seedy motel room. Only Ray wasn\u2019t the first to find him. Now Logan\u2019s dead, the client\u2019s information is nowhere to be found, and Ray\u2019s employer is less than forthcoming with the details. Suddenly the line between the good guys and bad guys isn\u2019t so clear. With a foot in both worlds and an illuminating look at an unhappy ending that could well be his own, which will Ray choose?<\/p>\n
