Good pacing will keep you reading to the end. FBI agent Tara Shores is one cool, competent chick.” —ScienceThrillers.com “Rick Chesler's biotech thriller Treacherous Tropics is a pulse-pounder of the highest order!” —Weekly EBook Reader “The lush Hawaiian setting is conveyed in a way that immerses the reader in the story. There's a strong scientific element to the plot, but is handled in a way that keeps the book accessible.
