THE SUNDAY POST, Issue #269 - May 4, 2025

Happy Sunday, Everyone!

Spring has sprung, and with it comes a breath of fresh air—especially for my Sunday Post, which I’m giving a little makeover in hopes of attracting more of you lovely readers! Let’s be honest: my Sunday Posts deserve a bigger audience. I adore writing them, but the process can be quite the time commitment—thinking, writing, curating photos, and editing. So today, I’m keeping it straightforward and to the point!

Just a quick note: I’ll also have a seperate Sunday Post on my Gunsmoke & Grit blog —be sure to hop over there and check it out!

{The Sunday Post} — Gunsmoke & Grit

**April 26, 2025** - Guess who’s back! I’m hoping to hit publish at the stroke of midnight this week—let’s keep our fingers crossed that technology is on my side! This past week hasn’t been a whirlwind of excitement, but hey, the Kansas City Royals have been on a winning streak, so that’s something! As a proud cord-cutter, I’ve found myself tuning into baseball games through an app. Currently, the Royals are sitting at a decent 13-14, not too shabby, right?

Now for some thrilling news—I’ve launched a new blog, Gunsmoke & Grit (https://gunsmokeandgrit.blogspot.com/)! I wanted to dive into the Western genre, knowing that many of my readers might not share that interest, so I created a space dedicated solely to Western Fiction. I’m starting from scratch on a free Blogger site, and while it’s a work in progress, it just went live yesterday with my review of Hanging Justice by Jake Logan, the old paperback I mentioned in last week's post. It’s a bit lonely there with zero followers, so if you’re intrigued, I’d love your support!

[Review] — BELLEVUE by Robin Cook ╍★★★✰✰

[Review] — BELLEVUE by Robin Cook ╍★★★✰✰

Twenty-three-year-old Michael “Mitt” Fuller starts his surgical residency with great anticipation at the nearly three-hundred-year-old, iconic Bellevue Hospital, following in the footsteps of four previous, celebrated Fuller generations. The pressure is on for this newly minted doctor, and to his advantage he’s always had a secret sixth sense, a sensitivity to the nonphysical. But quickly, one patient after another assigned to his care begin to die from mysterious causes. As he tries to juggle these inexplicable deaths with the demands of being a first-year resident, things rapidly spiral out of control. 

Visions begin to plague Mitt—visions of a little girl in a bloodstained dress, bloodcurdling screams in the distance, and worse. As bodies mount and Mitt’s stress level rises, he finds himself drawn to the monumental, abandoned Bellevue Psychopathic Hospital building, which to his astonishment has somehow defied the wrecking ball and still stands a few doors north of the modern Bellevue Hospital high-rise. Forcing an unauthorized entry into this storied but foreboding structure, Mitt discovers he’s more closely tied to the sins of the past than he ever thought possible.

[Review] — INTO THE GRAY ZONE by Brad Taylor ╍★★★★✰

While on a routine security assessment in India, Taskforce operator Pike Logan foils an attempted attack on a meeting between the CIA and India’s intelligence service. Both government agencies believe it’s nothing more than a minor terrorist attack, but Pike suspects that something much more sinister is at play. After another terrorist operation at the Taj Mahal, he begins to believe that outside powers are attacking India in the gray zone between peace and war, leveraging terrorist groups for nothing more than economic gain. But the separatists conducting the operations have their own agenda.

[Review] —BATTLE MOUNTAIN by C.J. Box ╌★★★★★


BATTLE MOUNTAIN 
A Joe Pickett Novel 
by C.J. Box 
Putnam, 2025 

The campaign of destruction that Axel Soledad and Dallas Cates wreaked on Nate Romanowski and Joe Pickett left both men in tatters, especially Nate, who lost almost everything. Wondering if the civilized life left him vulnerable to attack, Nate dropped off the grid with his falcons in tow to prepare for vengeance. 
 
When Joe gets a call from the governor asking for help finding his son-in-law, who has gone missing in the Sierra Madre mountain range, he enlists the help of a local, a rookie game warden named Susan Kany. 

 As Nate and fellow falconer Geronimo Jones circle closer to their prey, Joe and Susan follow the nearly cold trail to Warm Springs. Little do Nate and Joe know that their separate journeys are about to converge . . . at Battle Mountain.
