Amazon 5* review of The Green Feathers A great read. I love spy stories. "A cracking read. I was glued to this for the day and a half it took me to read it, although I did take breaks for sustenance now and again!" @hobeckbooks.bsky.social and Amazon t.co/Z09AgFqL80
Still don't know the identity of Jan the Dutchman? @hobeckbooks.bsky.social and Amazon t.co/qDDMia6hng
New review "Yet another great thriller from David - they keep on getting better. Great plotting and characters. Mike Kingdom stars again. That Jan the Dutchman isn't called Jan, isn't a Dutchman and isn't dead is a great premise. Thank-you David and keep them coming." @hobeckbooks.bsky.social

LesleyB on Amazon "David's writing style is very easy to read, sprinkled with wry humour; his characters are believable and plotting exciting ... I've already taken 'Mike' Kingdom into my heart. Bring on her next case." @hobeckbooks.bsky.social and Amazon t.co/8ihOccQjps
What a great idea from @vizcomic.bsky.social ? I 'll try this with Rebecca and Adrian @hobeckbooks.bsky.social and see how I get on. Could save me months of writing. I'll let you all know what they say.
Review of The Green Feathers "Expertly plotted with characters so well written they jumped off the page and descriptions so vivid I felt I was right there in the centre of the action. I thoroughly enjoyed the storyline; this is exactly what I enjoy reading." Amazon t.co/Z09AgFqL80
Review from USA "Another clever "this could be happening right under your nose" scheme; another case of trying to think through the possibilities as fast as Mike uncovers new facts; another example of just the right touch of irony and humour." @hobeckbooks.bsky.social Amazon t.co/qDDMia6hng

Review from Tregolls "Another exciting novel by this author who ... writes with confidence, bringing scenery and situations to life and making his characters so believable that the reader becomes totally immersed in their world." @hobeckbooks.bsky.social, Amazon t.co/qDDMia6hng and book shops

Halfway through the sequel to Jan the Dutchman. I have a working title. There could be a new series? From @hobeckbooks.bsky.social Amazon amazon.co.uk/dp/B0G8KJ2W9S and all good book stores
New 5* review from USA "Exactly the kind of main character I want to get to know better working against a criminal with a very clever scheme. Nicely written, with an amusing twist in the very last line, and kept my interest all the way through." @hobeckbooks.bsky.social and Amazon t.co/8ihOccQjps
Well, that's the advertising budget blown ... what next? @hobeckbooks.bsky.social, Amazon amazon.co.uk/dp/B0G8KJ2W9S and all good book stores
New review "Another brilliant novel by one of the masters in the art of storytelling. This author seems to give a bit more with each book he produces. The dilemma for me with this book was wanting to know how it ends but not wanting it to the end." @hobeckbooks.bsky.social Amazon t.co/Gvv57IwKjJ

Another gem by David Jarvis "My holiday read was the fifth book in the Mike Kingdom series and as usual, author David Jarvis didn’t disappoint. I like the observational humour allied to a strong and topical spy plot, created another gem for me." From Hobeck Books and Amazon t.co/Z09AgFqL80
John Dunleavy 5 out of 5 stars on Amazon A great read. I love spy stories. A cracking read. I was glued to this for the day and a half it took me to read it, although I did take breaks for sustenance now and again! From @hobeckbooks.bsky.social, Amazon t.co/Z09AgFqL80 and all good bookstores
What does Michaela 'Mike' Kingdom look like? I asked AI and this was the outcome. If you have read any of the six thrillers, is this how you imagine her to be? Let me know. @hobeckbooks.bsky.social
