“This is a page turner. The President’s Henchman was excellent and this is even better. A great read on it’s own, the two books mesh totally… Fast paced and great characters make this the best two book series I have read in years.” –Donald S. Feazell
Here’s the set-up:
Then a client comes to McGill, the daughter of a former Chicago cop McGill knew but didn’t like when he was a captain on the CPD. McGill’s former colleague went to Paris to scatter the ashes of his late, French-born wife in the Seine. While tending to that solemn obligation, the former cop managed to get into a brawl with and kill France’s national sports hero. The guy from Chicago claims he was only saving a blonde woman from being beaten by the Frenchman, as French law actually required him to do. Only problem is, the blonde has disappeared.
The former cop’s daughter asks McGill to find the woman and save her father.
Beats glad-handing the locals in nearby London, he decides. He just has to wrap up the case in time to get to dinner with the president and the queen.
ForeWord Magazine called The President’s Henchman “marvelously entertaining.” Its sequel, The Hangman’s Companion, is even more fun. With a French accent.
“Are you begining to see that this is must read. I loved
The President’s Henchman, but I think I like this more.”–Lost in Kansas’ James Corbett, Vine Voice
“Joe Flynn is a Zen Master in his writing; connected at many levels. His character development and relationships are thorough and fresh. Where he finds some of his characters is amazing as is his understanding of politics, not only national, but international. How Flynn gets all this inside info is beyond me. He has done his homework!! The Hangman’s Companion is full of suspense and tension; yes, a page-turner, one easy to follow even as the scenes and multiple plots switch from Washington to London to Paris. When does the movie version come out?? Love the strong, bold, smart US President!”
–Delinda Chapman
“I loved this book! It is fast-paced and full of action. The main character, Jim McGill, is a detective with a great sense of humor and a quirky attitude… This character’s unique perspective is that he is the husband of the President of the United States, so you get international intrigue, diplomacy and current events thrown into the mix – which works beautifully!”
–R. Hammond
