Vengeance Is Mine

Rating:
Summary: A quick satisfying read
Review: Bonita Wagner's latest novel, though short, is a fast and satisfying read.

It's the latest fad drug and it's called 'Boomers'. It's highly addictive. Teenage girls are being talked into trying it, and when they get hooked, they gladly sell there bodies for more. When a bad batch gets out, lives are lost. Mostly young teenagers. This is when Texas rangers' Travis and Manny get on the case.

The story should be aimed at parents and teenagers. A rather moral tale that describes some of the perils of teenage drug use. There is suspense to go with the emotion. It's also laced with humor, especially when it comes to Manny and Travis. Being a short novel, as this was, it did lack some depth but it still kept me in my chair.

Summary: Entertaining and Enjoyable
Review: Bonita Wagner's terse suspense novel is perfect if you are in the mood for a fast-paced mystery. Short chapters and plenty of dialogue add to the story's action and pacing.



Travis Bonham and Manny Ruiz are quirky Texas Rangers investigating the death of a teenage boy. They suspect a serious dope ring is living and breathing in their jurisdiction. Simon Caruthers, a powerful and wealthy man in the community, is arrested because the Rangers have strong suspicion he's involved with the sale of illegal drugs. Caruthers hires Perry Hamilton, a successful criminal attorney, to defend him from the charges.



Once teens are hooked on the drugs, the price goes up. For those who can't pay, other arrangements are made, as the strung out teens are forced by their addiction to star in pornographic movies in order to keep flying high. Things go from bad to worse, as a bad shipment of the drugs winds up killing many of the teenage addicts from one particular area. The Rangers need to act quickly to catch the drug dealer and put an end to the deaths and porno flicks.



With unsuspecting twists and turns, Vengeance is Mine, moves like a freight train. The characters are well drawn. Though the novel is short, it is entertaining, and promises to be a quick and enjoyable read.
