Connor Sullivan

This is the best book I've read in 2023 and I can't believe it is Conner Sullivan's debut novel. Sleeping Bear is a great thriller that starts fast, continues to pick up momentum throughout the book, and has a terrific ending.
To say that Cassandra Gale's life is a mess would be an understatement. Recovering from the loss of her husband, she decides to take an adventure with her dog, Maverick, into Alaska to recharge herself both mentally and emotionally. She meets some nice people along the way but what transpires during her first night of camping will affect not only her life forever, but the lives of each of her family members.
This is a politically-charged thriller that involves the countries of Canada, the United States, and Russia. It will have you on the edge of your seat for the entire story. Highly recommended!… (más)
