Black / White, Good / Evil - not an overly original analogy to catch attention of your future readers. It is no longer considered classic, but quite mundane cliche. But then again, you read the description provided and suddenly this crime thriller looks very promising and appealing with FBI agents and profilers picking up a trail! Congrats and thanks for free book!

This review was informative and engaging. I always look forward to a book that manages to insert humor into otherwise serious situations. The question the reviewer raised about the FBI agent sympathizing with the assassins punishing the criminals was though-provoking. I would have expected an FBI agent to be all about following the letter of the law. Yet, the reviewer has a point. Maybe scammers are such a bane on society that one has no choice but to ostracize them. Lastly, knowing the book contains information about how to protect yourself from similar behavior is a further incentive to read it. Thanks for the review.

Today's BOTD is a crime thriller with a super engaging storyline. The included elements of romance and humor give the plot depth, making it even more appealing to readers. This definitely sounds like a must-read for me, especially with the themes being about betrayal, love, family, and loyalty! Thank you!! :-)

Crimes and detective is one of my favourite books. It's usually full of suspense and thrillers.
I'm particularly interested in knowing how to detect scammers.
Sounds like a very fascinating story.
Thanks for the beautiful review.

I feel Cody is in a tight position to either accept or reject their actions. Anything that involves unauthorized killing should not be accepted. Nice review.

Great review. The novel starts off with an unusual scene: a scammer getting what he deserves from two vigilantes. This crime thriller is an attention grabber: you are caught between liking Alex and Lara and still feeling some sympathy for Cody. I love what he author does with the concept of having 2 sets of protagonists. This is yet another novel I would love to complete. The author knows what he's doing and delivers an intriguing story with a strong plot. Kudos on a well-written novel and for being selected for today's book of the day.

From a sampling, this seems like an interesting crime/thriller story about a couple of assassins who target cyber criminals and the FBI agent tasked with tracking down and stopping this psychotic couple. It might be worth a second look. Well done.

When I saw the book's title, I instantly thought of hackers, and I'm glad that the book focuses on cybercrime. Crime thrillers are my favorite, and this one seems to have all the great themes that promise an intriguing read.
