Welcome to Teaser Tuesday hosted by The Purple Booker, the weekly Meme that wants you to add books to your TBR, or just share what you are currently reading. It is very easy to play along:
• Grab your current read
• Open to a random page
• Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page
• BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)
• Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers! Everyone loves Teaser Tuesday.

I have read a lot of DV Berkom’s novels and enjoyed everyone tremendously. If you are looking for an author to follow, I recommend her. She has strong female characters that manage to get into some thrilling situations.
The Last Deception is D V Berkom’s sixth novel in the Leine Basso series. They can all stand alone, but I have loved each and every one, so I recommend starting at the beginning.

MY TEASE
“How would they know it their patient was my son? This letter states he was on a clandestine operation.If true, he would not have carried identification.If he had, then the bombing would have wiped out any credentials.”
(page 69 in paperback published in 2017)
GOODREADS BLURB
Lies. Deception. A nation on the brink of war…
Just when former assassin Leine Basso thinks she’s free from the business of murder and deception, a desperate call from a friend drags her back into the dark world of espionage and arms dealers.
Leine uncovers information that implicates a well-known Russian businessman in a horrendous deception that affects national security and could have global repercussions. It’s up to the former assassin to persuade the powers that be to ignore the obvious and trust her, or disregard the information and bring the world to the brink of a devastating war. Can she make it in time to warn them before The Last Deception?
I was just looking at her books on Goodreads last night. Trying to see which ones I have and getting them onto my review list. Can I ask you why Taylor’s name is on your post title?
I was working on her post at the same time. LOL Thanks for pointing it out.
I do that too. LOL
Not my usual, but a great cover and teaser! I’d keep reading. Here’s mine: http://bit.ly/2Aqcw3h
That’s okay. Thanks for dropping in Kym. On my way over to see you.
Sounds like an intense thriller….thanks for sharing, and I’ll have to ponder this one.
Here’s mine: “EVEN IF IT KILLS HER”
I love her work and Leine is a badass ex assassin, my kind of ‘lady’. lol
This does sound like a thrilling series. I’ll have to add it to my wishlist. This week my book is A Peace Divided by Tanya Huff. Happy reading!
Glad to hear it Kathy. I love the character, and if you are looking for strong female leads, you won’t be disappointed with Leine Basso and DV Berkom
