Summary: Regan C. Ashbaugh is one to watch!
Review: "Masterfully crafted...A hard-to-put-down thriller you can't help but enjoy." - Clive Cussler. "Chilling, irreverent, passsionate, full of the rich detail of psychology, and bristling with first-rate police work...An exciting ride." - Gayle Lynds, author of MASQUERADE. As a sixteen-year Wall Street veteran, a vice-president of investments with a national brokerage firm, a part-time teacher at his local high school, a proud member of his town's fire department, and husband and father of two, Regan Ashbaugh writes with unparalleled skill and authority. DOWNTICK is full of sharp dialog, memorable characters and daring surprises...It is simply one of the most exciting books I have read in years! Mr. Ashbaugh is a new force to be reckoned with within this genre. And this is just the beginning...

Summary: really excellent..very hard to put down
Review: Although I do not ususally go in for this kind of novel, I found this one very well done and almost impossible to put down. Character development was good and the twists in the plot were both believeable and impossible to predict. Very exciting.

Summary: An incredible debut thriller
Review: David Johnson is a big name on Wall Street. Jonah Roberts is a farmer in Maine. Both men are being stalked by a psychopath they met once in college and haven't thought about since. The story that follows can only be described as amazing.Downtick has no dull moments and is full of interesting police procedure, an insider's view of Wall Street, and a very accurate portrayal of rural Maine. Regan Ashbaugh keeps upping the stakes until by the end of Downtick the reader would like to jump into the pages and catch this psychopath himself. The whole book is full of twists and turns and the last Part is suspense at its best. Regan Ashbaugh is not a literary writer and Downtick contains some cliches. However, his characters are not stereotyped, his vilian is terrifying, and his suspense is perfect. I have read this thriller twice. Highly recommended.
