They Call Me...Montey Greene (Identity Crisis Trilogy, Book #1) (Mystery & Thrillers)

10 chapters — updated Mar 13, 2013 10:16pm

Description: Read the first 10 Chapters here for free! "A very enjoyable crime caper crossing Italy and France and ending back in the US. A very refreshing central character and plenty of twists and turns. A fun and pacy read with lots to like. A very promising start to a new series" - thebookbag.co.uk "They Call Me...Montey Greene' reads like a straightforward thriller written for the everyday man. It's a fun story - not overly complex but enough to chew on. As a story, it works, and even wraps up with a well-crafted surprise finish - always a treat." - bestsellersworld.com "A promising...awkwardly executed thriller." - Kirkus Reviews
