Book Review-Running With Wild Blood-Gerrie Ferris Finger

Wednesday, January 21, 2015


It took me a while to get into this book and to figure out what was going on. I have to admit I never would have guessed who the real bad guy was!!

Biker gangs have a pretty bad reputation--not always deserved if this book is to be believed. Richard Lake is with the Atlanta Police. Moriah Dru used to be a policewoman-but has since left the force and become a P.I. Her employees are unbelievable at ferreting out clues whether legally or illegally. Just as an aside-Richard and Moriah are an "item" but very low key as neither is quite ready to get married (or at least one of them isn't ready)!

Will Moriah and her employees be able to find out the secret of why Juliet Trapp was murdered and where Juliet's father is while exonerating the Biker Gang of any wrong doing? You really have to read this book cause that's all I can tell you! There is something at the end which makes me want to keep reading this series---------------


About the Book: (from The Authors Blog)

Richard Lake of the Atlanta Police Department gets a cold case when a witness suddenly gets his memory back.

Lake recruits Moriah Dru to look into the murder of Juliet Trapp‚ sixteen when she died‚ and a student at Winters Farm Academy.

Juliet Trapp had told her mother she was going to Bike Week with Wild Blood‚ an outlaw motorcycle gang‚ over the Christmas break.

The police were unable to solve Juliet's murder after interviews with the bikers.

The case roars into high gear when Juliet's father‚ Sherman Trapp‚ is murdered in Chattanooga where Wild Blood is the predominant motorcycle club.

Dru discovers that Trapp was trying to find the killer of his daughter‚ but got too close.

Dru and Lake join forces with a wary Wild Blood to solve the murders and clear the club -- if, indeed, everyone in it can be cleared of murder.

COMING JANUARY 21, 2015 (Yup that's today!)

Very interesting. My uncle was a biker and yes the image can be scary but he was the gentlest soul ever. I am sure my cousin would love to read this story.

I hate and love plot like that. I hate it because it take you long to realized what's going on but love it at the same time because it keeps you guessing and thinking lol.

With the popularity of shows like Sons of Anarchy, I'll bet this turns out to be a very popular book.

That sounds like a very entertaining read. The title and biker gangs!

If it took you a while to figure out what's going on, in my mind, that's the sign of a really good book :)

I'll have to give this a read. It sounds interesting. (Though I'm a little concerned it will take me too long to figure it out!)

Theresa Mahoney said...

I've known lots of bikers over the years and I think they do get a bad wrap. Some of the nicest people I know sport tattoos and ride a Harley. This sounds like a good read!

Masshole Mommy said...

If a book doesn't grab me in the first chapter, I won't read on. It sounds like this one might be like that.

Thanks so much for the wonderful review of my novel. It was great fun to write and research, as I am not a biker. I would have loved to be Dru on the bike seat behind Lake, though. Happy reading everyone and happy new year, too.

Unknown said...

Just not my kind of book I don't think. But, everyone else enjoy.
