About the Book


Book:  Lawson’s Bluff
Author: Jeff Barganier
Genre: Contemporary action and adventure, contemporary romance
Release Date: March 13, 20201


Terrorists attempt a multi-million-dollar art heist while America’s media distracts the world with stories of Alabama hunters slaughtering hogs with dogs and knives. As fearless Jack Lawson is about to catch his thousandth boar, journalist Carla Frederick arrives to cover the hunt for the LA World News. Shocked by the uncivilized Alabamians with their bulldogs and razor-sharp knives, Frederick writes a grotesque, biased story about Jack that goes viral. Belatedly, she discovers the deeper story—deeper and darker than she could have ever known. Barganier has written an unlikely love story wrapped in twisting suspense.

My Thoughts


Okay this book is definitely not one that I would pick up on my own but I must say that it did keep me engaged from the first page! There are plenty of twists and turns to keep you reading. The author definitely has a unique way of writing and packing so much into such a small book. Literally everything is in this story; suspense, romance, espionage, political espionage... you name its in here. 

If you enjoy reading stories by authors like Tom Clancy or Vince Flynn you will definitely enjoy this book. Overall I thought it was a good book, not sure that I would pick up willingly pick up one of his books just because I am typically not in this section of the bookstore or library as I tend to gravitate to historical romance but he is definitely on my to be read authors for sure! 

My Rating: 4 Stars/ I really liked it!

I received a copy of this book from the author. I was not required to post a positive review. All views expressed are only my honest opinion.

More from Jeff


I didn’t “come up” with the idea for Lawson’s Bluff. The idea found me after I published a piece about a hunter in Georgia who hunts wild boars with dogs and a knife. Like character Jack Lawson, he never carries a gun, preferring, instead, to tackle the hog and slay it the old-fashioned way. So, as with previous novels, I didn’t write this one either. The story wrote me. I had no clue where the story was going until informed … by the story. This approach is what makes life interesting, I think. And what makes novels interesting, too—twisting action and romance in unpredictable settings.
