Yucatán Dead: Kate Jones Thriller - Paperback

by D. V. Berkom (Author)

"An unrelenting thriller of a tension-filled novel...Yucatán Dead is the stuff of which blockbuster movies are made...very highly recommended..." Midwest Book Review

Retribution. Revenge. Murder. If your deadliest enemy was at your door, would you cut and run, or stand and fight?

For Kate Jones, being on the run was never going to be easy. But with a new identity and a new life, she was beginning to believe she'd made it through the worst.

Then, in an act of twisted revenge, Kate's kidnapped and imprisoned deep in the Yucatán by her deadly enemy, his intention to make her pay for her sins before her excruciating death. Fate intervenes and she's given a second chance by a group of off-the-grid commandos waging war against a vicious drug cartel. In return, she'll have to fight for her life--and theirs.

From peaceful northern Arizona to the steamy jungles of Mexico, Kate Jones must decide for herself if she'll cut and run...

...or turn and fight the evil that pursues her.

Author Biography

DV Berkom is the award-winning author of two action-packed thriller series featuring strong female leads (Leine Basso and Kate Jones). Her love of creating resilient, kick-ass women characters stems from a lifelong addiction to reading spy novels, mysteries, and thrillers, and longing to find the female equivalent within those pages. Raised in the Midwest, she earned a BA in political science from the University of Minnesota and promptly moved to Mexico to live on a sailboat. Several years and a multitude of adventures later, she wrote her first novel and was hooked. The Kate Jones adventure thriller, Bad Spirits, was first published in 2010 as an online serial, and was immediately popular with Kindle fans. Dead of Winter, Death Rites, and Touring for Death soon followed before she began the far grittier Leine Basso thriller series in 2012 with Serial Date. Now, she tries to give equal time to both Kate's and Leine's stories, a must for her (happily) impatient readers. DV currently lives in the Pacific Northwest with the love of her life, Mark, a chef-turned-contractor, and several imaginary characters who love to tell her what to do. Her most recent books include A Killing Truth, Cargo, The Body Market, A One Way Ticket to Dead, and Yucatán Dead. For more information, visit her website at www.dvberkom.com.
