Book Description

Publication Date: September 30, 2008

A murdered psychologist with ties to a secret CIA-funded remote viewing project . . .

A haunted young Iraq War vet with a "psycho" discharge and a talent that has marked her for death . . .

A deadly secret that will rock the world.

You can't hide the truth from those who can see.

When the charred remains of Tulane professor Henry Youngblood are discovered in the burned-out ruins of his New Orleans offices, the CIA sends maverick troubleshooter Jax Alexander to investigate. Joined in a reluctant partnership with remote viewer October "Tobie" Guinness, Jax struggles to decipher a cryptic set of clues that leads from the devastated neighborhoods of New Orleans to the power corridors of Washington, D.C. Pursued by agents of an influential oil and defense conglomerate with ties to the President himself, Jax and Tobie soon find themselves in a breakneck race against time to stop a ruthless killer and avert a diabolical plot that could devastate America.

Editorial Reviews

From Publishers Weekly

Vietnam vet Steven Harris and Candice Proctor (of the Sebastian St. Cyr mysteries, written as C.S. Harris) write here as Graham and deliver rollicking good suspense. October Tobie Guinness is a navy vet of the Iraq War with remote viewing skills, meaning she can see into rooms from miles away. She can't hone in with complete exactness, though, and a viewing session unintentionally leads her to discover a conspiracy involving key defense industry and government personnel. They, in turn, quickly dispatch former special ops man Lance Palmer to clean up the situation. Jax Alexander is a CIA agent one mistake away from being fired, who goes down to New Orleans to investigate the death of Tobie's former professor and stumbles into the plot. Jax and Tobie run for their lives, trying to stay one step ahead of the conspirators, piece together the plot and eventually save the life of the vice president and avert an unjust war. Tobie, tormented by her gift, is terrifically capable and intelligent, while Jax is the consummate skeptic who still loves his country and believes in his job. The credible, fast-moving plot gives them ample opportunities to show off their skills. (Sept.)

Format:Mass Market Paperback
October "Tobie" Guinness, in an effort to better understand strange visions that have affected her life, and maybe find a way to use her "gift," has been working with Tulane professor Henry Youngblood and his remote viewer studies. When he is murdered and the killers with government badges and unlimited resources seem to be hunting her down too, Tobie has no idea why or where she can turn.

Jax Alexander is a maverick CIA agent sent to investigate professor Youngblood's death-and the first thing he finds is that this is not a random murder. When Jax and Tobie pool their information, they discover this may be just the tip of the iceberg and that the conspiracy someone is trying to cover up has links all the way to the White House.

The Archangel Project is an outstanding political conspiracy thriller. The story contains just enough true tidbits mixed in to keep it intriguing and the plot frightening. The book isn't pointing fingers at one particular person or party but illustrating a warning that we shouldn't be too quick to blindly allocate powers to the government without a way to defend our rights. Our government must contain a balance of powers as our founding fathers intended and checks must remain in place to protect us.

I loved the story and the characters of Tobie and Jax. The book also contains a teaser for the next book in the series and I was delighted to learn that Tobie and Jax will still be featured. Both these characters embody characteristics we would all like to claim: loyalty, patriotism, and the willingness to stand up for what is right even in the face of death.

The conspiracy plot is diabolical and a frighteningly real suggestion of what someone might be willing to do because of greed. This book presents a sterling example of the old adage that "absolute power corrupts absolutely!"

I can't wait for the next book to come out and see what new plot Tobie and Jax will set out to thwart.

Armchair Interviews says: Outstanding political thriller.

How well can you see? March 22, 2010
Format:Mass Market Paperback
This was based on the notion of remote viewing. I.E., people who can see things not in their presence. An interesting look at the political/military-industrial complex and what some people will do to maintain or increase their profits or status. I kind of wish there was more elaboration on the background and thinking of the villains. I enjoyed it and recomend it.

Format:Mass Market Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I picked this book up because the premise interested me, and the Amazon ratings were good. I find the concept of remote viewing interesting, and thought I'd give this one a go.

While I enjoyed this book, I was not blown away, and don't know that I recommend people go out of their way to read it. The plot moves along pretty nicely, and there is plenty of action and excitement, but somehow it seemed rushed, like the authors edited out the moments in between when you catch your breath and figure out what is going on.

The main characters themselves have potential, but neither seems fleshed out enough for a reader to truly feel connected to their well-being. And you never feel like they are in real peril, there is no sense that they might not get out of this one.

All told, it was a nice escapist novel, but for me, nothing more.

Almost well done
The book is a thriller, no doubt about that. You won't be able to read fast enough to finish it, but the end is... I don't want to spoil the book but is really bad.
