Bad Habits: A Tampa Bay Tropics Thriller by George L Fleming

“I enjoyed reading this Florida thriller set in the Tampa Bay area. George Fleming captures my attention in the first page and doesn't let go until the end. The plot is a corker--unique, fast-paced, and filled with enough action to keep any story-lover up late into the night. Buried under the prurient appeals of sex, drugs, and violence, Fleming tackles the very real and contemporary issue of pedophilia within the Catholic church. I highly recommend this new release. I'd put Fleming right up there with Randy Wayne White and James W. Hall as great Florida mystery writers.”—C. Michael Hamlin 

 

"This is a fast paced, suspenseful read. I enjoyed the short chapters and the Tampa locale since it's my hometown. I look forward to George's next novel, Don Coyote.."—R. McConnell

 

“Enjoyed the contemporary characters and Florida setting that George Fleming developed in this mystery. Glad to see it will be a series of books, so I can keep learning more about the protagonists! Personally, I think this book series has the makings of a great cable TV program.”—Rebecca A. Geanaros

 

""Bad Habits" by @novelist.george.l.fleming is one of the best thrillers I have read in a long time. This novel is full of suspense, and to use a word I saw a friend of mine use on a @goodreads review, it was unputdownable 😊 The author has such a strong voice that I really love, and wrote some awesome characters I hope to see more of (Reed is incredible 😍) I was intrigued from beginning to end. This book also had short chapters, which made his book fly by, combine all of thee above with it's excellent storyline that is summarized below, this book is worthy of 5 stars with a doubt 👏👏👏🙌🙌🙌 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⁣"—Kelly Kapowski 

 

 

Five Catholic priests have been murdered all around Tampa Bay. Law enforcement forms a task force, but is unable to find this killer, whose weapon of choice leaves clues but no answers. Father Angel, head of the Vatican’s special security projects, hires Reed O’Hara to hunt down this killer. Reed is a Tampa attorney and private investigator. She is a relentless pursuer of justice in the courtroom or on the streets. Reed and her husband Jake Dupree agree to track down the priest killer, even though they are fighting a takeover of their nightclub by Russian mobster Victor Petrov.
