Drift
ByPublisher Description
In the wake of personal loss, Philadelphia narcotics detective Doyle Carrick loses his temper—and gains a twenty-day suspension for unprofessional behavior. Now he's laying low at a house he inherited in rural Pennsylvania. But Doyle quickly discovers that Dunston, PA, has plenty to keep him occupied.
Doyle's new neighbor, Nola Watkins, is a welcome distraction from his woes. Less welcome are the high-powered drug dealers driving the small-town roads—and the shady development company leaning on Nola to sell her organic farm.
When a drug bust goes bad and the threats against Nola turn violent, Doyle begins to realize that what's growing in the farmland around Philadelphia is much deadlier than anything he could have imagined . . .

3.5
“3.5 stars. "Drift" is a thriller that incorporates several familiar elements to thriller lovers with some interesting and original elements that also hold major appeal. This is an eco-thriller which had me turning the pages quickly to see what would happen next. Thrillers are not my usual reading fare but I was really excited to read this one because of the eco element. This book proves that sometimes it's good to get outside of your comfort zone.
I really liked the storyline of this book. At the center of this book is a story line about Doyle, a hardened detective from Philly, who is trying to figure out why someone is targeting a small organic farm in the middle of nowhere in the wilds of Pennsylvania. Even though he's supposed to be laying low after being suspended from the police force, he wants to figure out what's going on. I thought this was a really interesting story line. As it's a thriller, it would sort of ruin things if I told you too much but you should know that there are a lot of great twists and turns in the story!
I really liked the character of Doyle. He's the consummate tough guy but as the book goes on, you can see that there is more to him than just being a cop all of the time. He slowly realizes that about himself but it takes awhile.
The book ended a little too quickly and I didn't feel like everything was as settled as I would have wanted it to be for closure's sake. I'm wondering if there might not be a sequel to finish the story a little bit. Overall though, this book is a great story!”
