Lying Crying Dying was hailed by British suspense master Lionel Davidson as “the Thriller Nouveau — of deceit, betrayal, tears… one of the very best of the late nineties.” The novel introduces Pascual Rose, a repentant ex-terrorist trying to make sense of his life after defecting and selling out his former comrades in the European terrorist underground of the 1980’s. Pascual is lying low in … low in Barcelona when a nova explodes in his cosmos — Katixa reappears. She is the only one he never gave up, the one woman he ever loved. Katixa wants out now too, and she is on the run with a suitcase full of cash hijacked from an ETA kidnapping to start a new life somewhere far away — with Pascual. But nothing is what it seems, and when Pascual realizes that Katixa is lying to him, can the crying and the dying be far behind?

Pascual was a courier for a group of radicals that was trying to spread terror in all of Europe, in the name of separatism and liberation. Then the day came when he had a better offer, so he defected to the Mossad and CIA. Of course, this means that he sold out all his former comrades, except, the one woman that he loved, the beautiful Katixa.
His new associates gave him a new identity and he was to vanish! Going home to Barcelona, his childhood home seemed like the place that he could be the happiest. Keeping an extremely low profile, existing and living hand to mouth, Pascual tried to atone for his past. This included hiding from his previous comrades but helping where he could.
Then the day arrived when he thought that he had finally put his past away, an eruption occurred, Katixa walked back into his life!!! They decide to pick up where they left off, but things do not seem right! Why? At every move, the deception was around him, everyone was lying to him, with that he knew then the crying and dying would not be far behind!!!
And the story begins…
What did I like? This book was a real test of my languages, which I loved, as I do not use some of them often enough. Now, the storyline, extremely complicated and mysterious. The main thing that I liked was the descriptions. I have never been to Europe, I felt like this book picked me up and off I went to Barcelona and many other places. I loved the foods, people, and lifestyles that were a part of the journey. I can honestly say that I was caught up in the storyline, with the pictures flying through my mind’s eye!
What will you like? When you use the word action, it seems like such a small word, but when you apply it to a book like this one, you will find this astonishing journey through hell and back! Duck, the lead is flying, the crooks are around you, with deception every step of the way, and the love is abounding. Well, at least one of them is in love! The characters are so unique and amazing. This storyline has the feel of real life, and it is obvious that the author has personal knowledge of it. You can see the research on every page. Dominic brings this book to life, and you will not be able to put it down, as the mystery, lead flying, running, and the race for survival will take over your mind! Professionally written and edited. An extremely exciting and wonderful read, it will be a great addition to your library.
