A murdered psychologist with ties to a secret CIA-funded remote viewing project . . . A haunted young Iraq War vet with a "psycho" discharge and a talent that has marked her for death . . . A deadly secret that will rock the world. You can't hide the truth from those who can see. When the charred remains of Tulane professor Henry Youngblood are discovered in the burned-out ruins of his New Orleans offices, the CIA sends maverick troubleshooter Jax Alexander to investigate. Joined in a reluctant partnership with remote viewer October "Tobie" Guinness, Jax struggles to decipher a cryptic set of clues that leads from the devastated neighborhoods of New Orleans to the power corridors of Washington, D.C. Pursued by agents of an influential oil and defense conglomerate with ties to the President himself, Jax and Tobie soon find themselves in a breakneck race against time to stop a ruthless killer and avert a diabolical plot that could devastate America.… (plus d'informations)

This was an over-the-top read in every way. Light, action-filled, with characters who were interesting to follow on their journeys but who didn't take themselves too seriously.

I enjoy the concept of remote viewing, and I thought The Men Who Stare at Goats was an excellent movie, so I picked this up hoping for more of the same. And while I thought the plot of The Archangel Project was decent, it also felt very formulaic and superficial. The bad guys were stereotypical (and not terribly bright) and the action scenes much too pat and convenient. I also never felt like the main characters were in any real danger. It seemed pretty clear how the books was going to end, and sure enough, the ending offered no surprises.

Still, this was a fun escapist read and as long as you can turn off your critical brain for a bit, you'll enjoy this one. ( )

This was a fast paced and riveting story that involves a remote viewing project with ties to the CIA. Espionage, terrorism, and connections to a large private contractor will keep you enthralled to the end. ( )

Lively start to a promising series. Interesting characters whose skill set should project nicely into additional tales. Bad guys dispatched and the world is saved until new threats are created by this well suited writing team. ( )

October Guiness is a remote viewer. Jax Alexander is a CIA agent who doesn't believe in anything "woo woo". A great mystery/adventure. Fast paced and intense. ( )

The topic is "remote viewing" which is something I of which I had never heard. Combine this gift with being in the service and October Guiness ended up with a psychiatric discharge. However, her gift was tapped into with some experiments. She ends up, unknowingly, being chased by the CIA, FBI, and everyone else, with October not knowing who is who, what side is everyone on. Very real and authentic. A topic I will explore more. This novel was a good introduction on the topic. ( )
