Now available as a boxed set: Books 1 – 3 of the London Carter Mystery Series by BJ BourgJAMES 516 (2016 EPIC eBook Award Winner for Best Mystery)Could a deep and dark secret be behind the sniper-style killing of a sheriff’s office captain, or is it simply the work of a madman with a rifle? Whatever the case, the killer is taunting the cops with a mysterious message, and Police Sniper London … Sniper London Carter is determined to decipher the message and capture the murderer.
Will London solve the mystery in time, or will more officers die before he can bring the killer to justice?
PROVING GROUNDS
When the sniper-style murder of an alligator poacher puts two rival families on edge, Police Sniper London Carter and Detective Sergeant Dawn Luke join forces to solve the case. But they’ll have their work cut out for them as the two families recruit small armies to fight each other and the FBI becomes involved in the case.
It doesn’t take London long to realize they’re dealing with a professional killer, but the motive for the murder is far from clear. Will he and Dawn solve the case before it’s too late, or will the swamps of Louisiana run red with the blood of the rival families and the cops who are trying to stop them?
SILENT TRIGGER
Days after Police Sniper London Carter resolves a hostage situation at a local car dealership, Detective Sergeant Dawn Luke calls upon him to assist her with a mysterious death investigation. The cause of death is not obvious, but the body is found in a peculiar position and the individual is connected to the recent hostage situation, so something seems amiss.
London and Dawn end up facing numerous roadblocks in their quest for the truth–including an unidentified body, uncooperative witnesses, and a killer tornado–and through it all they start to develop feelings for each other. But the case is growing complicated and dangerous, and if they’re not careful, one of them could end up like their victim…dead and naked on a cold morgue slab.

If you’re interested in what snipers do, this is a book for you. I knew little or nothing, and now I know what a “ghilly” suit is! (Spelling doesn’t count!!!???)
Some of the characters are really “characters!” Alligator hunters, “get even” antagonists, and actually, London, himself. The main character has multiple reasons for being a sniper. Read and learn!
Action packed
This boxed set is good though each story is a little uneven. Generally entertaining and easy to read and it is interesting to learn about snipers.
Read all 3 plus one more of BJ Bourg’s novels in 4 days! Loved each one, could not lay them down. They held your interest from the first page. These were the first of Bourg’s books I’ve read & am looking forward to reading all of them.
very likeable characters and keeps you interested
Loved these books.
The writer has the ability to paint pictures with words. I could visualize each situation as tho I was there. Once I opened the book, I never wanted to put it down as I was looking forward to “what next?”. A true page Turner!
Have already reviewed this book.
Smooth and easy-flow, great plot, fascinating sniper facts, very enjoyable. I’ve read all in this series… wish there were more. Right up there with Patterson, Cussler and Crais, Slaughter, Child, Fairstein. Entertaining for men and women readers.
It was very interesting to have a sniper as a main character. Also that it was taking place in Louisiana and not in a big city. It was fast paced and a page turner.
Paper thin characters. Implausible plot. Grade: C-
Good, intereating characters.
This author was new to me, but I have rad the first 4 of his books and enjoy them. Mystery from a sniper’s eye view (literally is a unique and esoteric way to look to the answer to a very common question in mysteries, “who dunnit.”
I am just starting the 3rd book. If you like mystery and action, these are the books for you. It is hard to figure out who the bad guys are and why they killing off other people. In the end it all comes together.
Happy Reading!
Still reading the books
Good police stories
Some of the plot was a little weak and the romance was a bit clumsy. The sniper parts were fascinating.
My kind of read.
The twist and turns keeps you turning the pages.
Great book, could not put it down!
