Reading has always been my one great passion, so much so that I even dreamed of being an author. However, I soon became obsessed with blogging and not only do I not have the time to read, I can forget about being a great author.

Retribution book cover

This morning, I was introduced to a new suspense novel titled “Retribution, by Richard A. Yacenda. I understand that this is his first novel and I am impressed that he has chosen to tackle a suspense novel.

Author Richard A. Yacenda

Retribution is set in New York, where Richard himself is a native of, so he is really familiar with the place, though he now lives in Boca Raton, Florida with his wife. Reading through a couple of chapters, I would say that this novel is very engaging and keeps one on the edge of the seat. You know that sometimes we come across books that make us want to finish the whole book in one sitting? Retribution is one such rare book. At least that is what it does to me.

Be warned that this is a suspense novel that is about the gruesome killing of eight men. It’s brutal, vicious and graphic so it is not for the faint hearted. However, if this is the kind of plot you enjoy, I say, go for it!
