TAHOE HIJACK! "Beginning to read TAHOE HIJACK is a bit like floor-boarding a race car... Rating: A+" - Kittling Books "The pages of his thrillers are impossible to stop turning." - The Nevada Review "The book climaxes with a twist the reader doesn't see coming, worthy of Michael Connelly." - Tahoe Mountain News "Now I'm hooked... Borg has the timing and imagination to weave a believable tale of history, family, mystery, greed, and murder with more than enough "ah hah" moments to satisfy the most demanding reader." - Bookin' with Sunny "I had to hold my breath during the last part of this fast-paced thriller, full of action and surprises, and lots of twists and turns." - Book Dilettante TAHOE HIJACK also has over 50 great reviews on Amazon!
When Arianna Quinn searches out her birth mother Grace Sun, she discovers that Grace is the kindest and most generous woman she's ever met. But shortly after Anna gets to know Grace, Grace is murdered and the killer comes after Anna. Anna escapes and goes into hiding. Three years later, Detective Owen McKenna responds to a hijacking on Lake Tahoe. The hijacker claims he knows the murderer of a woman who was killed three years earlier, a woman named Grace Sun. McKenna discovers that members of a fanatical militia group believe that Grace had knowledge of a treasure that dates back to the Gold Rush and that she told Anna about it. The militia men will do anything to find Anna and force her to tell them whatever information she has... If McKenna wants to save Anna, he has to find her first. But he is out-manned and out-gunned, and it looks like the militia men will succeed in putting both Anna and McKenna in their burial ground... ***BREAKING NEWS! *** For you Francophiles... The French translation rights for TAHOE HIJACK were just purchased by a publisher in Paris! The French version of Tahoe Hijack is due out in 2012. The French title?
