I love discovering new authors and “Hard Vengeance,” by JB Turner was an exceptional introduction to the action thriller series. I read that Turner is “the #1 Amazon bestselling author of the Jon Reznick thriller series” and I can see why – it was an action packed read written by someone who clearly had done research and had superior writing skills. Although I started with book 9 of the series, it could stand alone.

Set in the Balearic Island of Mallorca, Spain, this installment in the series begins with a blast. The Assistant Director of the FBI, Martha Meyerstein, and her friend are yachting off the coast when, encouraged by her friend, she gains the courage to call Jon Reznick and leave a message intimating that she’d like to take their friendship to the next level. Moments later, the yacht explodes and Meyerstein is presumed dead.
Ex-Delta Force Special Operator, Jon Reznick is contacted by Meyerstein’s father and agrees to hunt down his daughter’s killer. Unbeknownst to Reznick, he is falling into a trap set by the psychotic killer. Furthermore, his daughter, fresh from Quantico and against her father’s wishes, has travelled to the quaint fishing village to join her father on what she assumes is a vacation. To the vengeful killer, this is perfect; two for one! Meanwhile, a team of government operatives descends on the island with one sole purpose: to keep this under wraps. Will this be possible with Reznick out for revenge? Now that the killer has lured him, he intends to play with Reznick. Can this be done without alerting local authorities?

I loved Turner’s writing style. I felt it enhanced the suspense when both the protagonist and antagonist’s perspectives were shared with the readers. I was totally immersed in the plot from page one and taken on a nail-biting rollercoaster ride to the last page. His characters were believable, as were the predicaments in which they found themselves. The plot twists were well timed and the gory parts and swearing kept to a minimum. All this, I’d expect from a journalist and an accomplished writer. It reinforced for me that I’d made a great choice and that the reviews about this series were true. Not only would I recommend this book to a friend, I’m going to go back and read books one through eight. For $7.79 CAD you can pre-order this ebook and it will be delivered on January 14, 2021.

Thank you to JB Turner, Amazon Publishing UK and NetGalley for the advance copy in exchange for an honest review.

This book is easy to read and has great characters like the rest of the series, but unfortunately, this one is so full of nonsense that it's not very enjoyable. Add quite a few pages of rantings by several characters, and we have a real downer.

I enjoyed this book, not as much action as he did in his previous books, but still enjoyable all the same.A decent read.

Wow just read this in a day!! Another action packed book with Jon this time in Majorca, Martha finally tells him how she feels but then there's an accident, but Jon doesn't believe it's an accident so goes to investigate little knowing he's played right into the killers hands. It's a case of kill or be killed. Jon's daughter now an FBI recruit joins him and I hope we get to see them working together again

Thank you for the opportunity to read an early copy of J.B. Turners' Hard Vengeance the 9th Jon Reznick story and my first introduction to the series. No spoilers, but I'll definitely be going back to read the previous 8 books in the series! I found the character's well rounded and the storyline kept me hooked, it didn't matter that I hadn't read the rest of the series as the links from previous adventures were always well articulated. I didn't want to put it down and would definitely recommend this whether you're an avid fan of the series or if like me this is your first encounter with the world of Jon Reznick. Amazon review to follow once the book is released as Amazon won't allow a review at this time.

Suspenseful and full of twists, the novel tells a story about how far a father can go to save the life of his daughter when she’s in danger especially when it’s because of his job and what that entails.
I love Palma and it’s nice to read about favourite places in books and all the times the hero was talking about food, I was remembering all the savours from the island.
This wasn’t my first book in the series and it’s definitely not the last because, like previous ones, it’s well written and a must read suspenseful crime novel for any lover of the genre.

It’s great to have Jon back, but his time he’s the target. Adam Ford is back and draws Jon in by setting up the assassination of his girlfriend in Mallorca. When the State Department, FBI, CIA, and Spanish military and police departments set up roadblocks to Jon’s investigation, the plot gets interesting. Even Lauren, Jon’s FBI daughter gets drawn into this exciting story..

An interesting story line, visiting past books but blending them neatly into another exciting, action packed novel.

I love reading J B Turner's books and this, like the ones before them, has not let me down.

Really enjoyed it, really recommend it.

The ninth in the Jon Resnick series has Jon as the target when an old foe goes to great lengths to get his attention. Readers who enjoy this series will find this one satisfying. The bad guy is truly sadistic which is hard to fathom and read at times. I love that Jon's daughter it's included in the action. A Spanish island lends an picturesque scenario for this fast paced thriller. Recommended!

An emotional read if you're a fan of this series. When the absolute unexpected happens and a favor is asked Jon finds himself at a bombing site. What doesn't realize is that he is the ultimate target.

I really do enjoy this series and it's characters. As always I look forward to the next book in the series.

I received this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

J.B. Turner's Hard Vengeance is #9 in the Jon Reznick Thriller series. When Jon Reznick's wife dies, Reznick doesn’t think he’ll ever love again but it seems to be happening with long time friend Martha Mayerstein, Asst. Director of the FBI. When a yacht blows up and she is killed while on vacation, most call it a horrible accident but neither Martha's father nor Jon think that’s true. Jon flies to Spain to investigate and quickly finds out it isn't as simple as it sounds. First, why is the FBI covering it up? And then, why is Jon's life threatened for simply trying to uncover the truth?

I love this series. I’ve read every book in it. The characters are strong and believable. The plots always quick and pithy and the writing tight. But this book was not one of Turner's best (IMHO). There was no lack of drama but Jon seemed slow to react and the plot's development and pacing seemed similarly slow. Scenes covered the same dramatic and emotional territory too many times which made me skip ahead. I was completed vested in Martha's safety and wanted to see Jon use his prodigious skills to beat the apparent bad guys, which he did, but slowly. The story was there but the storyteller wasn’t on his a game with this one.

Amazing story. Well developed characters that are in a twisted engrossing thriller. Highly recommended. Super suspense that comes to a satisfying end! Highly recommended . A true roller coaster thrill ride

J.B. Turner's latest book is a crime adventure story featuring a father -daughter relationship. JOn Reznick is again. the main character in the novel. He is searching for whoever killed a woman he loves. Martha Meyerstein. However his daughter, Lauren has just joined the FBI wants to help him. Heaturallybas a protectiveparent wants her to stay away and is afraid she will get hurt. In theend theylearn to work together and catch the killer.
I enjoyed tgis book and feel it is. different because of the father-daughter relationship. Would like to read more books like this

As always with the Jon Reznick series its is fast and furious.
Great fast paced storyline. Maybe a little unbelievable at times but awesome none the less.

DARK. VENGEANCE. J B Turner
His target was a fourthly something woman, he was intrigued, and admired her. Watching these two women on a yacht in Mallorca, the one was a FBI agent, they were friends from college.
Reznick was ecstatic to get a call from Martha, he was flying home and now has been trying to call her. It was time to move on. His daughter was with the FBI as a field agent, liking Martha and the news that she finally called her dad
A distraught father getting a call from the state department about his daughter Martha and forbid him from traveling to see what took her life. The FBI she worked for had not been notified either. Now calling Reznick who was an ex delta operator for help. Both. agreeing it was bizarre. Reznick. going to Mallorca to get answers. Being told not to get involved after he got there, it was assassination. Someone who wanted revenge, retribution.
A trap had been laid, the psychotic killer is ecstatic two for the price of one when Lauren now with the FBI flys in to help her dad.
A good flowing plot that draws one in from the beginning. Filled with tension, of what really is going on. Liked that Lauren has been involved in helping her father. Given ARC for my voluntary review and my honest opinion for Net Galley and Amazon UK

Let me begin by saying I follow this author and have read the full series of the Jon Reznick and have enjoyed every single one of them. Hence when I started reading this novel to find out a long standing character had been killed off I was shocked.

The synopsis of this book is that Jon Reznick a former Delta Force soldier, CIA assassin, now FBI helper is relaxing at home when he finds out that his boss has been killed whilst she was on holiday. He puts a plan into action to determine who did it and why.

Even from the perspective of a new reader whilst there are brief recollections of previous stories, you can get away without reading them to be able to follow this story. The action is dealt with without any gratuitous description and the story flows really well through to the conclusion.

For any one who enjoys action thrillers, this is a great book and I would recommend giving it a try.

I was provided an ARC from NetGalley in return for my honest review.

I received this book through "NetGalley" read now program.

I have read all of the Jon Reznick stories and this one does not disappoint. The story has Martha Meyerstein in Spain on vacation with a friend on a yacht. She is being pestered to make a call to Jon by her friend and she finally makes it and leaves a voice mail message. Shortly thereafter an explosion occurs.

Jon is returning from a trip overseas and sees the call and tries to reach her. Later he receives a call from Martha's father who informs him that Martha was killed in an accidental gas explosion. After Jon is requested to look into the matter by her father, he heads to Spain to look into it. As he does his investigation, he meets an individual who was a former SAS member who had information. Later as Jon was talking to this individual, he was taken away by Spanish Authorities. Jon later meets this individual's sister who was supposed to e picked up at the airport by here brother. As both Jon and the sister were trying to find out what happened to the brother, other individuals were attempting to get Jon to leave the country. When the sister was going to meeting with a British representative, she was involved in an accident.

Later, Jon's daughter arrived and wanted to help, but Jon wanted her to go away and stay safe. Once already an individual from his past had attempted to murder him. Ultimately, an attempt was made on both Jon and his daughter and they managed to escape. Both of them were abducted by individuals who wanted them to leave the country. Jon was separated from his daughter and managed to escape.

Eventually the other parties decided to use Jon as bait to catch the killer. One of the attempts that this group used was to try and determine that individuals location by tracing a cell phone call. This did not work out as planned. Later a second attempt was made on Jon and his daughter.

To discover who and why the individual was so intent on killing Jon and how the last attempt worked out, then you must read this book. It is well worth it and I recommend it highly.

Book Review: Hard Vengeance (Jon Reznick #9) by J. B. Turner
(Published by Amazon Publishing UK and Thomas & Mercer, January 14, 2021)

4.5 Stars.

September 11, 2001. Elisabeth Reznick, young wife and new mom, was at the Twin Towers when the attacks came. She'd abruptly left her hapless soldier husband spiraling into the nadir - desperation, depression and alcoholism, lost, alone, a war fighter unfit to raise their baby girl by himself.

Present Day. Palma de Mallorca, off the eastern coast of Spain. FBI assistant director Martha Meyerstein is on vacation, lounging on the sundeck of a luxury yacht belonging to Ann C., her closest friend from college. Ann teases her about her love life. Martha makes a call; she knows she's being a little bit fresh, but she just needs to talk to Jon Reznick.

Minutes later the yacht blows up.

New York, NY. Fresh off the academy in Quantico, youthful FBI Special Agent Lauren Reznick ribs her old man. How long how it been since Mom, Dad? She knows he's hopelessly heads over heels with her FBI mentor and patron. Director Meyerstein.

Then the news comes in. An explosion somewhere in the Balearic Islands off the Spanish coast. Reznick knows it. Meyerstein is dead. The FBI denies. The State Department disavows any knowledge.

Hard Vengeance, Book #9.

Reznick takes it hard and personally. He flies off to the Mediterranean, a former black ops assassination specialist on a private vendetta for vengeance.

Hot on his tail, the FBI, the State Dept., the CIA and the Guardia Civil de España. For all intents and purposes, Reznick is declared persona non grata.

And out for his blood waiting in the shadows off picturesque coastal cliffs, a deranged and highly intelligent old adversary.

Author J. B. Turner takes a pivotal turn in the Jon Reznick series as he eliminates a main character and throws in the shuffle enough twists and turns to make heads spin.

Unputdownable. The Jon Reznick series. The definitive panacea for lockdown ennui!

Review based on an ARC from Amazon Publishing UK, Thomas & Mercer and NetGalley.

This time it’s personal. Hard Vengeance is the ninth book in the Jon Reznick series about a former Delta operative who gets involved in off-the-books anti-terrorist missions, often to the frustration of the official agencies running them. I’ve read them all in order, and obviously that’s the best approach, but these adventures all work well as stand-alones and you get all the recap you need. I always enjoy these, as the plots manage to be different enough each time to keep them interesting.

Jon has finally decided to confess his romantic feelings for his friend, Associate FBI Director Martha Meyerstein, so calls her in Mallorca where she’s holidaying on a friend’s yacht, when it explodes. Convinced it can’t be an accident, he travels to the Spanish Island to investigate, but is stonewalled by the local authorities and US State Department who fear the fallout if it’s reported as a terrorist attack. Determined to discover the truth, Reznick doesn’t mind who he offends, but he doesn’t know that an old enemy is watching him, with revenge on his mind.

This was another fast paced action adventure featuring Bastardo Duro (as the Spanish police grudgingly dub him) Reznick, but I liked seeing his softer side as he finally admits to himself how much he cares for Martha. This also meant I spent much of the book thinking “Surely she can’t really be dead?” which did add to the suspense. I also kept feeling like I’d encountered the baddie before - but I’m rubbish at remembering book plots and character names, so couldn’t remember where from. It’s not a spoiler to reveal that it’s the antagonist from Book two, Hard Kill - we learn his name and general motivation early on, although the exact details don’t get explained until much later on. I personally don’t like spending quite so much time in the villain’s head, especially not when he’s as deranged as Adam. I like Reznick as a hero, but find his big-headed daughter Lauren rather annoying - she’s a rookie FBI agent who overestimates her talents and mistakes bravado for bravery, so just gets in the way most of the time.

Thanks to NetGalley and Amazon Publishing UK for the ARC which allowed me to give an honest review. Hard Vengeance is published on January 14th.

This is the ninth book in the series which continues to be a page turner! Jon Reznick gets a call from Martha Myerstein's father saying that Martha has been killed by an explosion on a boat in Mallorca. He believes she was assassinated, and asks Reznick to go to Mallorca and kill the man who did it. Reznick goes, but does not get welcomed by the Spanish police or the US FBI and State Department. The reader soon knows that the man responsible, Adam Ford, really wanted to hurt and kill Reznick because Reznick kept him from killing the president, ruining Ford's chance at fame. Ford is a brilliant doctor, former Special Forces, and psychotic.

Jon has his work set out for him, especially after being taken by US officials who want to put him on a plane home. However, Jon is resourceful, and is joined by his daughter Lauren and cyber savy Trevelle Williams. As the body count mounts, the big question is whether Reznick and team can get Adams before Ford gets him and/or his loved ones and friends.

I thank Netgalley and Amazon Publishing for allowing me to read this book for an honest review.

This is the first book that I have read in this series and I would definitely read more. There is a lot of action and suspense. Jon is a strong likeable character with an interesting and heartbreaking background. I want to find out more about him.

Thank you to NetGalley for my copy.

J.B.Turner's excellent series has a welcome addition in Hard Vengeance. This time the setting is a Spanish Island after an explosion causes Jon Reznick to investigate exactly what has happened.

As with the other instalments in this series (this is full story number 9) they can be read individually or in order. I have been lucky enough to read them in order and there are a few familiar faces who make repeat appearances. However, one name from the past makes an unwelcome return and is creating carnage on the island of Palma with his end goal to kill Jon Reznick.

This story has a slightly less high octane fell than previous Reznick outings but still has some explosive set pieces and carnage aplenty.

The end of the story will make you smile. Your smile will be even bigger if you read stories 1-8 before you get to this.

Another enjoyable thriller outing for Reznick.

Thank you NetGalley for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.

My thanks to NetGalley and publisher Amazon Publishing UK for the ARC.
This is Book#9 in the Jon Reznick thriller series and reads well as a standalone. The story is interesting, complex and multi-layered, but equally frustrating because of lengthy and repetitive passages of Jon's musings surrounding his investigations.

Assistant FBI Director Martha Meyerstein and Jon had been friends for years as he consulted with the FBI - and other agencies - on black ops. Martha and friend Ann are on a luxury yacht off the coast of Spain where, just after plucking up enough courage to phone Jon, leaving a message that they should meet up on her return, the yacht blows up. At Martha's father's behest, and his own doubts about this being an 'accident' Jon travels to Europe to find out what happened. No agency will own up to being in charge - the State Department calls it a National Security issue - the FBI, Martha's employer, nor the CIA will give anything away. Why is there a news blackout and why, when Jon starts talking to ex-soldier Mac, Mac disappears, but not before telling his sister he'd found a piece of wreckage which had Arabic writing on it.
Jon's daughter Lauren, fresh from FBI training convinces Jon to let her help, much against his better judgement.
Always there is someone watching and waiting; knowing that killing Martha would lure Jon into his trap; years in the planning to gain vengeance for the past.

As said, this could be faster-moving if it wasn't for all those superfluous and tedious "thought" passages, but it is a good story - with a twist.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the ARC of this book! I like Jon Reznick and appreciate his loyalty to those he loves and to doing the right thing. He gets to the truth and cuts through any bull, and he doesn't take no for an answer. This book is emotional and I do not want to post any spoilers.. While reading this story, I felt like I was both on vacation in a beautiful, very hot setting (I swear at times I could feel the hot sun on me) and also fighting for my life at the same time. What a combo! I found this book to be an enjoyable read and I couldn't wait to see how Jon proceeded to make things right. Now that Jon's daughter, Lauren, is in the FBI I look forward to the possibility of father/daughter collaborations in future books. Thank you J.B. Turner for a very enjoyable cast of characters to both love and hate!

Another hard hitting and heart pounding mystery for Jon Reznick. Jon receives word that his best friend, FBI Assistant Director Martha Meyerstein, has been killed in a boating accident while on vacation. Once he hears from her father, they both believe that there is more to the “accident” and he leaves for Mallorca. From the very beginning, things don’t add up. Attempts on his life, authorities refusing to answer questions and the fact that Martha’s body was not found. With the various Feds involved, Jon knows that they are trying to keep him from investigating. You would think by now they should know that has never worked. When he finally realizes who might be after him, he also knows that this entire set up was a way to get to him. When his daughter arrives on the island, all bets are off to keep both of them safe. Non-stop action and “take no prisoners” until the very satisfying end. I received an advance review copy at no cost and without obligation for an honest review. (by paytonpuppy)

Hard Vengeance is the ninth instalment in the Jon Reznick Thriller series, set in Palma de Mallorca, Spain. The story opens with FBI Assistant Director Martha Meyerstein and her closest friend from her college days, Ann McCaul, sipping rosé on a luxury, high-end yacht belonging to Ann and her husband Sergio sailing just off the eastern coast of the Spanish island with not a care in the world. Ann pushes Martha to call Reznick, who she had longed to ask out for years ever since her divorce but lacked the self-confidence to do so. Perhaps, due to her Dutch courage, she decides to call him after a gentle ribbing from Ann. It couldn't hurt to let him know how she feels. She gets his answerphone and leaves a message saying she hopes he would take her out for a meal just the two of them if she travelled to his hometown of Rockland, Maine to see him once back from her vacation. Shortly after the call and without warning, the yacht explodes. Meanwhile, elsewhere, Reznick has been on a gruelling thirteen-hour flight back home, after attending the wedding of former Delta operator Teddy Fredericks, from Dubai back to JFK and was surprised to see a voice mail from Martha upon landing. Although when he tries to return the call there's no response, Reznick’s daughter Lauren, who has just graduated Quantico and become a fully-fledged FBI Agent, is overjoyed that her father is finally having strong feelings towards a woman again and that they are reciprocated. But soon his hope and excitement over the future is shattered beyond recognition.

He receives a call later that night from Jerry Meyerstein, Martha’s father, who alerts him to the fact that there's been an explosion and that Martha is dead. Trying to find out the truth thousands of miles away from where the incident took place in the Balearics is an impossible task; the FBI deny it's happened and The State Department are practically useless too, so Reznick takes matters into his own hands and catches the next flight to the Mediterranean but he is absolutely distraught. It feels like Elizabeth all over again. He intends to use all his skill as a former FBI Black-Ops member and assassin to identify who carried out the bombing killing the woman he loved and then ensuring they pay. He is hellbent on vengeance even at this early stage given they've taken away someone very special to him. Coming face to face with a ruthlessly intelligent perpetrator he realises it's someone from his past pulling the strings. But now that Reznick feels like he hasn't got anything to lose by chasing his brutal enemy and disposing of him then there's no telling the lengths to which he’ll go to exact revenge. This is a compulsive, riveting and action-packed thriller overflowing with tension, mystery, intrigue, twists and reveals but also, this time, emotion. It's pacey and well written and before you know it you're fully immersed in the story alongside the characters. The cast is comprised of fully rounded characters and. in particular. Reznick is becoming a multilayered individual before our very eyes. It was nice to see a softer side to him. An enthralling, exhilarating and thoroughly entertaining page-turner. Highly recommended.

Oh my word, I have got to read the rest of the Jon Reznick thrillers. This book is pretty much nonstop action from the beginning to the fantastic ending. Can you imagine working for five years to get back at the person who thwarted you? That is just crazy. Highly recommended for all you adrenaline junkies out there!

I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Thank you Netgalley for the advance copy of this amazing read. This action packed thriller had me hooked from page one. When FBI assistant director Martha Meyerstein is blown up on a luxury yacht holiday her Dad asks Jon Reznick to investigate. As Jon gets closer to solving the case it becomes obvious who the real target is.

First time reading the Jon Reznick series and I must say I want to go back and start at the beginning, I always seem to find myself starting books mid way through a series!!!

Jon reserves some deverstating news Martha deputy director of the FBI and his love interest has died. They are told it was a gas leak on the yacht that she is holidaying on with her friend. But Martha's father contacts Jon and tells him he doesn't think it was an accident he thinks it was murder. He makes Jon promise to find out the truth and sends him to Spain to seek revenge.


I really was hooked with this novel from the first chapter it was all go and I love it when a novel grips you from the beginning. I loved that we are introduced to the bad guy from the start, although his motives are unbeknown to us.

Jon clearly has issues and I feel that if I had read the first 8 books I would of understood Jon a bit more but as I continued through this book alot became clear. I really loved Jon and his personality he is not your average "hero" and I found that endearing!

The book is fast paced and although there are not to many characters it was a tad confusing for me at times. I found that because so much was going on it did help to keep my interests on the story.

In all honesty it's hard to write an indepth review without flooding it with spoilers. There were a couple of twist one of which I saw coming others I did not. I really enjoyed this book and I can't wait to go back to the first in the series. I am rating 3 stats only because the big plot twist I found to obvious so that let it down a tad but other than that I enjoyed everything else.


Thank you to Netgalley, the publishers and the author for the digital advanced copy in exchange for my fair and honest review.

A really good continuation of the Jon Reznick story. Reznick and Assistant FBI director Martha Meyerstein are finally dipping their toes into the romance pool until tragedy befalls Meyerstein in an attempt to draw out Reznick in a long term play. There was a lot of action in this book and I liked that it took place outside of the US which added some new twists to the story.. I don't want to spoil the plot but if you liked the past books of this series, this one is a must read. I enjoyed this book a lot and read it over the course of two days. I look forward to continuing this series in the future.
Thank you J. B. Turner, Amazon Publishing UK, and Thomas & Mercer for the ARC for my honest review.

This book was boring, repetitive...I skimmed to the end. Not worth reading. I felt it just went on & on.

THRILLING fast-paced police procedural, with lots of action & crime drama. Great characters that keep you on your toes throughout. First time reading this author, but will definitely not be my last. RECOMMEND this well written suspenseful novel. Thanks to NetGalley & Thomas & Mercer for this ARC in return for my honest review.

Uneven thriller, ninth in an ongoing series, HARD VENGEANCE, is my first book by author J.B. Turner. There is something a little too formulaic about the plot and the cut-out protagonist. It’s not difficult to piece together the motivation or the background for any of the characters or subplots. I just prefer my thrillers to be more complex and varied; I’m not that keen on tropes. Having said that, there is nothing disturbing about the book, it delivers what it promises: a fast-paced, hard-charging thrill. I received my copy from the publisher through NetGalley.

Heart pounding thriller! So much action, interesting characters and of course Jon. What a great character. I enjoyed the book, the action and the thrills.

Thanks to NetGalley for the chance to read the next instalment of Jon Reznick's adventures. This one is set on the island of Mallorca and I have to say I did miss the buzz of the US settings. The story line was OK, a bit gritty and a bit gruesome in places but I didn't think it was 100% up to Mr Turner's usual standard. Nevertheless, am already eagerly awaiting the next book to arrive !

I really enjoyed this book! It had so many things that I love: There was action, suspense, and drama with a little hint of romance thrown in. The writing was excellent and I could visualize the story.. As a bonus, it was told from multiple points of view, which is my favorite type of writing. This time we had the good guy and the bad guy. I thought this really helped flesh out the story and build the suspense.

This was the latest in a series, but can stand alone. Very excited that I found a new series to enjoy!

Thank you to the author, the publisher and #netgalley for the ARC, which did not impact my review. Now I am off to download the other books in the series.

Gritty thriller,fast paced and exciting.Although I had my suspicions about certain things I never knew for sure till the author chose to reveal them.

Hard Vengeance is the ninth book in the Jon Reznick series, and it isn’t holding any punches anymore. As expected with this series – this one is a hard hitting and takes off almost immediately. This time the threat is much more real to Reznick and his immediate family than ever before.

Turner’s storytelling is top notch and you’ll likely have to remind yourself to breath as you’re listening to this one. His pacing is super fast and around every corner feels like there’s another part of the story. Reznick as a character is both brutal but also likeable. His love for the people he holds close is unmatched and his ability to find out what is going on, even when it’s too close to him personally is amazing.

Overall, I really enjoyed Hard Vengeance and I’m glad that I picked it up. I finished it in a couple of sittings and wish I’d had more time to listen to it. If I could have started and finished it in one day I would have.

All I can say is that my heart can’t take all this drama going on in this series. I was gobsmacked by the start of this story and when Irealised that for Jon this was now super personal I felt sorry for whatever character would be on the receiving end of his fury! As Jon travels to Spain he has no clue what has happened and why. It soon becomes clear this is personal and as we get the killers side of the story it makes for a very intense read. Now that Jon cannot call on Martha for help he turns to Trevelle, his hacker friend. I love Trevelle and wish we saw more of him, but at leasthe makes an appearance as does Jon’s daughter Lauren.

This latest installment had everything you could want in this type of book and more! Packed to the rafters with intense action, a fabulous lead character, an interesting storyline and a book that had me mesmerised. I thoroughly loved this latest book, only now I have to wait for feels like an eternity for the next one! A series I would highly reccomend.

Loved this read! Couldn't put it down and decided to read it all in one sitting, definatly did not disapoint! Thankyou author!

Evidently this is part of a successful series about the hero, Jon. Not having read anything before, I was surprised to see that not only were some of the standard killer spy protocols skipped, it seemed even amateurish. It also seemed that there were few former special agent cliches that were missed.
I kept wanting to put the book down, but did want to find out who did it and why the originating explosion got such a reaction from Jon. So I stuck it out to the end.
Sorry to say, I wasn't overwhelmed with this book.

I've read several books by this author and have always enjoyed everything I've read, so I was looking forward to reading this book. I must say it didn't disappoint. This book was easy to read and fast paced and kept me wanting to read more. I highly recommend this book.

I've read all of j b turner's previous novels and this is as good, if not better than the others. Really enjoy these books so much

There were definitely moments of intense suspense throughout this book, but I struggled a bit with it feeling too far fetched. The story line was interesting, making it a fast read, but a few too many times I felt there was no basis in reality. I was unaware while reading that this was the 9th book in a series. With that in mind, the story was well written to allow new readers to come on board at any time.

Great story, fabulous author with brilliant writing and plot. Highly recommend to others, and cannot wait for more by this author.

There's something about J B Turner's books about Jon Reznick that simply promises action, heart and determination from beginning to end. Those promises are fulfilled in this book totally. Clearly Jon is gathering a team of his own...including his daughter, computer hacker Trevelle Williams and now, hopefully David McCafferty. Having a team shows Reznick is healing the long years of the loss of his wife and Delta Team. Excellent Read!!

I received this book for an honest review.

Jon receives a text message from Martha the F.B.I. Assistant Director who has helped him and he has helped her and her team. She states she would like to try a relationship outside of their working together. Jon is thinking about it and then is shocked when the boat that she is supposed to be on then explodes and he needs to find out what has happened. He then recruits his daughter Lauren who has just graduated from Quantico and also with the help of a hacker named Trevell Willams. What really is the plot is that someone is really after Jon and will stop at nothing to get to Jon. The story is action-packed and fast-paced and a good story that keeps you attached to the pages. A very good book with good characters.
