Agent with a History was a pretty easy book to read. However, I will admit that in some parts it just felt like a hot mess. For some odd reason, I was thinking this book was going to go one way before I even dove into it. Then, after a couple of chapters, I realized that I was completely wrong. Which, yes, I'm still annoyed with because I'm so confused. Other than that, the characters were okay. I wasn't completely invested in them but stuck around to see what was actually going to happen next. ...

Having just finished writing a brief explanation of why I abandoned another action-adventure read, I thought I might as well attach a similar note to this one. In this case, I was initially drawn to the book because it was written by a Christian author, and presented a female character in a strong role, both of which are positive features for me. (I also appreciated the fact that this one didn't present any problem of bad language or lewd content.) But without engaging in any spoilers, I thought...

Wow, this was a treat. This is usually not the kind of books I read, but as I liked other stuff by this author I decided to give it a try. I could hardly put it down at night. I got totally into the book and everything around me disappeared. I really liked the reference to the Louis L'amour books.
If I would try to describe the book in one sentence it would be: A cross between Ed McBain and Indiana Jones, but better.

When this author contacted me, I was intrigued when he mentioned that he features a strong Christian standpoint in his books and there would be no explicit sex scenes or foul language. I was curious to see if he would deliver. I am happy to say that he does--there is some mature content but nothing that is explicit.Lisa Tauranto is a detective who starts working a case that ends up being very personal for her. She becomes involved with a man she knows as Flint and they are attracted to each othe...

"Agent with a History" is a compelling, fast-paced novel combining the best of various genres including mystery, action/adventure, and a bit of folklore and history. Flint is focused on saving certain groups of people by destroying a treasure that would give some organizations the wealth they need to carry out those plans while at the same time saving the woman he's fallen in love with. Guy Stanton does a great job of developing the plot and basing it on Biblical history. The only part of the ch...

When Agent with a History began, I thought it was going to be a police drama. Why? Because the central character Lisa is an NYPD detective and is called onto a strange case. The premise had me immediately intrigued. A local strip club was recreated at the scene of an empty lot with sinister looking folks creeping around the site.But from that moment, the book took too many unnecessary twists and turns, and so much of it seemed implausible.I will suspend disbelief when reading a book. I read para...

What a hot mess! This story seemed to be a compilation of every single fantasy/thought the author ever had. There is detective work, spies, shooting, magic and even Nazis. I don't even know where to begin. The writing was pretty awful, often times hard to follow and the dialogue was cringe-worthy. At one point the hero of the story calls the woman a "sexy little fish". What? If a man called me that I would swim away as quickly as my sexy little fins would allow me. And don't even get me started ...

“Agent With A History” by Guy Stanton III, was my first crime drama/thriller/suspense novel and I loved it! I was immediately pulled into the middle of the action from the very first page. A gruesome murder is committed, and exotic and stunning NYPD detective, Lisa Tauranto, is put on the case to find out who and why. Lisa is a no nonsense, hard nosed detective, who has a few skeletons in her closet that later come up for air. Through her quest to solve the case, Lisa is led to a mysterious ...

Once I picked up the book I had a hard time putting it down. The way it was written was like being pulled right along with the characters. The facts of the Bible being woven in throughout the book shows just how much influence the Bible can have without people realizing it.Merged review:Once I picked up the book I had a hard time putting it down.

I was given a copy of "Agent With a History" by the author, Guy Stanton III in exchange for an honest review. This book was an action packed ride. The main character is a strong woman who has been through some hard stuff. The story is a James Bond/Indiana Jones from a Christian viewpoint. There is still plenty of violence, romance and good spy stuff, but all free of vulgar language and explicit sex scenes. I give the book 4 stars and will read the rest of the series. My only negative is most of ...
