Bad Spirits (Kate Jones Thriller #1)

Mexico. Money. Murder.

Kate Jones is on the run with a backpack full of money, intent on finding her way back to the United States from Mexico. Unfortunately, a ruthless drug lord named Salazar is just as intent on finding her, retrieving his stolen money, and making her pay for ever having left him. Is there anyone she can trust?

Originally published as a serial chronicling Kate Jones' race through Mexico, Bad Spirits is a fast-paced, action-packed novella. Just when you think Kate's escaped one impossible dilemma, she's thrown into another perilous situation. Can she survive long enough to make it out alive?

Review by Michael Gallagher (Top 50 Reviewer and Vine Voice):
"As a stereotypical guy, I usually don't enjoy, or read much of, fiction that has a female as the main character - mainly because I can't relate to them. However, D.V. Berkom is one good storyteller and I am looking forward to reading the continuing saga of Kate Jones."

Review by author Todd Fonseca:
"Bad Spirits is a fast-paced action-packed novella that reads like a nonstop high octane movie. Each chapter moves at breakneck speed. The heroine, Kate, barely has time to take a breather before finding herself in another impossible situation and back on the run...I finished it in one sitting and felt exhausted when I did! This was a fun read and I look forward to more from Berkom."

From Author C. Michaels:
"Bad Spirits captures the terror of being linked to a notorious Mexican cartel leader. Kate, the heroine, is hunted down after escaping the group, and as it would seem feasible that Mexico is a large enough country to find secure hiding, the book illustrates just how powerful their network of thugs can be...don't start this unless you are free to enjoy to the finish. You won't want to interrupt this whirlwind adventure until you know her fate."
