Overview

When Derrick Storm needed to leave the CIA, he couldn't just retire. He had to fake his own death. So when his former boss calls in an old favor that will bring Storm out of early retirement and back to Washington to investigate a high-profile kidnapping, he knows there must be more at stake than the life of a Senator's son. Working alongside, but not exactly with, bombshell FBI investigator April Showers, Storm must make sense of a confusing flurry of ransom notes and a complicated web of personal relationships and international politics. He'll get to the bottom of the kidnapping, but the storm is still brewing...

    REALLY???

    It started out as an interesting story. Then seventy-five pages ending with the statement "To be continued in 'A Raging Storm' available in July 2012." Very disappointing.

    Ripoff

    This is just the first part of a larger book that isn't out yet. Very unfair to not be up front about that AND to sell it without an ending. It SHOULD HAVE BEEN FREE! Also it needs proofreading.

    Listen, don't leave bad reviews because you just looked at the cover and not the listing. The listing actually says "A Derrick Storm Short". Scrolling down, it also says the size of the file and how many pages it is. Lastly, you know a new release novel isn't going to cost $1.99. So try reviewing THE CONTENT of the book and not that you feel cheated because you assumed some things. That said, this is not the best writing in the world, but I've enjoyed all the Nikki Heat books and I'm looking forward to this new series.

    Where's the love?!?!

    All these reviews are talking about how they got gypped, and complain about this being short. If they had done their research before buying, they would have seen that these would be NOVELLAS. Not full length books.

    I knew this and still paid. And it was worth it, because I am a true Richard Castle and Castle on ABC fan. Also it was worth it because of Derrick. This novella was good! Really good, and I cannot wait for Raging Storm. Oh, and Frozen Heat. :)

    CHEATED

    I paid for a book. Not a short story advertising the release of another book!!! I feel cheated by Barns and Noble and very dissapointed. At this time I am not sure that I want to continue doing business here. Think I will sell my new nook and buy a KINDLE FIRE. So far Amazon has never ripped me off like the purchase of this book did.

    Like so many of these ratings, I feel cheated. Maybe I should have read ALL the reviews, but little did I know they would actually try to get us to buy ANOTHER BOOK! No thanks!! Was this actually Barnes & Noble pulling this cheap trick??
