Blurb:
Sean
Donovan is doing all right; he has two offshore bank accounts and an American
one as well and all three are filling up nicely. His network of clients know
his business plan: he is willing to acquire whatever rare or inaccessible
product is needed, be it the security plans to an art gallery, a rare Etruscan
goblet or a recorded conversation from a former American President. And he will
steal it and deliver it to them, no questions asked nor answered.
But
he is becoming dissatisfied. In addition to the physical wear and tear
inflicted on his body by adversaries, he is now becoming weary of the toll his
newly-discovered conscience is exacting from these highly illegal exploits. A
series of lies to his most recent client has caused him to think about the
impact of his deeds and he doesn’t like how it makes him feel. An idea begins
to form; what if he was to undo his last three wrongs? And what if he
nevertheless wants to benefit from turning over this new leaf?
This
story follows Sean Donovan as he travels from Bucharest to London to Montreal
and New York. Will he repent his wicked ways? Will he quit the business before
those who he has wronged catch up to him? Will he discover that three wrongs
don’t make a right?
Review by Rochelle Weber:
Sean
Donovan is the best at what he does—theft for hire—when he has all the facts in
the case, when he is not mistaken for someone else, and when it’s not personal.
In his latest cases, everything is awry. Thugs keep getting in his way. When he
tries to stop them from killing a gypsy boy in Bucharest, he finds himself in possession
of a bag of stolen passports, one of which puts him onto the radar of yet another
bad guy. His next job is to steal the lucky necklace belonging to an actress.
His client is a spoiled brat of a teenaged starlet; the victim is a beautiful,
smart, funny, nice woman who only removes her lucky pearls at bedtime.
I
received an Advanced Review Copy that had not been fully edited, so I can’t
comment on the few editorial glitches I found. I’m sure they’ll have been
caught when Mr. Bowie went through the galleys. What I can say is that Three Wrongs grabbed me at the beginning and kept me burning
through my Kindle right to the end. Despite his chosen profession, I like Sean
Donovan. Retired spies have a very specific set of skills and there aren’t too
many things they can do with them. Donovan chose a lucrative and (mostly) safe
profession. In many instances, he replaces what he stole with duplicates so the
owners won’t even know their property is gone. I look forward to reading the
second book in this series, AMACAT.
Meanwhile, I highly recommend Three Wrongs.

You’ll
notice we always include the publisher’s buy link. That’s because authors
usually receive 40% of the book price from the publisher. Editors and cover
artists usually receive about 5%. When you buy a book from Amazon, Barnes &
Noble or another third-party vendor, they take a hefty cut and the author,
editors and cover artists receive their royalties from what is left. So, if a
book costs $5.99 at E-BookPublisher.com and you buy from there, the author will
receive about $2.40. If you buy the book at Amazon, the author will receive
about $0.83.
Downloading
the file from your computer to your e-reader is as easy as transferring any
file from your computer to a USB flash drive. Plug the larger USB end of your
chord into a USB port on your computer and simply move the file from your
“Downloads” box to your E-Reader/Documents/Books directory. You can download
your books onto your computer using “Save As” to a “Books” file you create and
sort them into sub-folders by genre, author, or however you wish before
transferring them to your e-reader. That way, if there’s a glitch with your
e-reader, the books are on your computer. And, your author will be happy you
did when he/she sees his/her royalty statement.
Thanks
for visiting. Julie, Donna, & Rochelle
