Kim Baldwin - The Gemini Deception

“Baldwin and Alexiou have given their fans a gripping read that’s difficult to put down! Dying to Live has a complex plot with a pandemic created by an arch villain, and a rescue from Columbian guerrillas. This is a thoroughly enjoyable read, and I can’t wait for their next adventure!”— Just About Write

“ Missing Lynx puts the thrill in thriller. In true thriller style, Baldwin and Alexiou take their women around the globe… from Vienna, all around the U.S. Southwest, on to New York, down to some of the most dangerous parts of Mexico, on to China and Vietnam and back to the Southwest. Quite the wild ride. A dark, edgy, often grisly tale, Missing Lynx has the grit and pacing of a Bourne saga, but with highly engaging and thoroughly challenging female characters. Not for the faint hearted.”— Lambdaliterary.org

“Kim Baldwin & Xenia Alexiou just get better and better at coming up with tightly written thrillers with plenty of ‘seat of the pants’ action. Missing Lynx is a roller coaster ride into the seamier side of life and the bonds which bind humans into trying to better the world. This is a book which grips the reader until the final page!”— Just About Write

“Unexpected twists and turns, deadly action, complex characters and multiple subplots converge to make this book a gripping page turner. Lethal Affairs mixes political intrigue with romance, giving the reader an easy flowing and fast moving story that never lets up. A must-read, even though it has been out for a while. Thief of Always , the duo’s second, and equally good book in the Elite Operatives series, came out earlier this year.”— Curve Magazine
