Summary: Sugar and Spice Ain't So Nice
Review: Keith Lee Johnson spins a suspenseful mystery titled Sugar and Spice. When you read this novel, you will realize that the characters in this book are not so nice. You will be on the edge of your seat as you travel from Malibu, California to Alexandria, Virginia following the vicious crime spree committed by the recently released twins.

In July 2001, the twins are set free from prison, While in prison, they plotted and planned revenge on those who mistreated them on the inside and outside. First, they had to take care of the prison warden, then Heather Connelly, a high school sweetheart. More vicious killings soon followed. FBI agent Phoenix Perry was vacationing in California when she read about the murder of the prison warden. Her curiosity piqued, she could hardly finish her vacation before her detective mind began churning with ways to solve this case. Very few clues, a hard-nosed boss, and an over sexed partner, are just a few obstacles Phoenix faced in her quest to get the killers off the streets. A trip to the post office and a phone call from the West Coast provide clues that lead Phoenix to the culprits.

Keith Lee Johnson provides an exciting tale that was full of surprise twists and turns. The action was fast paced and edgy. Maybe a true mystery reader would be able to read between the lines and figure out many of the questions this reader had at the end. It appears the author is planning on writing a series of Phoenix Perry mysteries and I will look forward to each one. I liked the concept he used of short chapters, it provided a build up to the action. I would recommend this book to those who enjoy books with fast paced action, but I would be remiss if I did not post a warning regarding some graphic scenes.

Summary: Sugar and Spice: What A Treat
Review: Sugar and Spice was a suspenseful mystery that had you wondering what twists would come next. I knew going into the book that it was a mystery/suspense novel, so I figured I could determine the who, what, when, where, and why. Boy, was I surprised to see that Mr. Johnson spinned us into a tight web, only to unweave a remarkable ending.

I enjoyed the suspense and I gave it 4 stars. I was slightly confused at times trying to keep up with the characters. However, I can say Mr. Johnson is a new author to remember and I await his next novel.

Summary: A definite page turner!
Review: Sugar and Spice is a laudable sophomore effort by Keith Lee Johnson. This intriguing book thrusts the reader into the diabolical minds of heartless, psychotic killers, whose ruthless twists and turns lead FBI Agent Phoenix Perry into a whirlwind investigation. Couple the constant drama with a creative, picturesque descriptive style utilized by Johnson, Sugar and Spice does not disappoint. Chock full of surprises and drama, Sugar and Spice held my attention captive to see what happened next! I was looking for something 'different' to take me out of my usual reading comfort zone, and Sugar and Spice did just that.

Summary: Pay close attention to the storyline!!!
Review: I enjoyed this book. The plot is a murder/suspense mystery. Keith Lee Johnson is a creative writer. You will be fooled until the very end. Much kudos to Mr. Johnson for visiting my book club. He has a book (Pretenses) coming out this summer that should be just as good or better than Sugar & Spice.
