The Oasis Project
Praise

"This one fairly crackles with energy.  Further, it’s both stylish and topical, boasting a great plot, tight prose and one of the finest story lines I’ve happened upon in a while.  Adkins certainly knows his stuff when it comes to police work, and this shines through as well.  Bottom line, it’s a winner, and you simply cannot miss with The Oasis Project."

"Greed and power are the elements that flow through the tightly wound plot of the Oasis Project.  It is one of those books that can't be put down.  You will hunt the killers with retired police officer Slade Lockwood, however, as you get closer to the truth, the roles are reversed and you become the hunted!  This book is a killer!"
