Here, in one volume, are the two extraordinary novels that first introduced maverick FBI Special Agent Mark Beamon to readers coast-to-coast, and rocketed Kyle Mills into the upper echelon of thriller writers. Ingenious page-turning tales of conspiracy and terror, they remain as spellbinding, blood-chilling, timely, and relentlessly exciting as when they first appeared in print -- fulfilling Frederick Forsyth's prophecy that "Kyle Mills will soon be a very big player." Rising Phoenix : A shadowy right-wing organization is flooding America's emergency rooms with the dead and dying, and FBI Agent Mark Beamon must stop the slaughter and its mastermind . . . who may be a former law enforcement colleague. Storming Heaven: The brutal murder of a local millionaire and his wife sends agent Mark Beamon into the dark world of a powerful cult . . . and into the heart of a terrifying conspiracy that could bring America to her knees.
Please note this review is for RISING PHOENIX only.I have not yet read the other novel. RISING PHOENIX is a highly enjoyable,reasonably plausible thriller.the plot is a super-televangelist hatches a plot to poison the illegal drugs that come into the USA.To engage his vision he hires a sociopathic ex DEA agent.When the plot begins to bear fruit and many people begin to die horrible deaths--enter MR MILLS regular protaganist, FBI agent MARK BEAMON.The ensuing twists and turns involving Columbian drug lords,New York Mafia,Baltimore ghetto gangs,ect involve detailed and very believable characters.I especially enjoy the MARK BEAMON protaganist because,for a change a thriller's main "good guy" is NOT a quasi-superman who instantly makes women swoon and uses his intense fighting skills to destroy crowds of antagonists every other chapter or so.(not to say this novel lacks action sequences--they are here in spades and very well done)AGENT BEAMON's primary skills involve uncanny investigative skills and an abilty to piss off his superiors. A GREAT THRILLER,HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
