Storm Warning    by James Byrne Order:  USA  Can Minotaur, 2026 (2026) Hardcover, e-Book      Reviewed by Hilary Williamson Storm Warning follows The Gatekeeper, Deadlock and Chain Reaction as the fourth in James Byrne's outstanding thriller series starring retired mercenary soldier Desmond Aloysius 'Dez' Limerick. He's a gatekeeper, responsible for 'Transitions an' times. Duality an' doors. Passages an' endings.' Dez also plays electric bass guitar. The episode opens as young indentured assassin Ash is given an assignment in Paris - it fails due to Dez's involvement as a bodyguard of the target. Dez could kill her but spares her life. Later, he's helping a friend in New York when FBI Agent Tom Fairweather asks for his help with a door he can't open. The Fuchs scientific research facility underneath a mining site in Newfoundland has gone dark - and Dez's friend Petra Alexandris is inside! Dez is fighting off thugs even before they depart, and the action and violence steadily escalate from there. Complicating matters, Ash is with one party of bad guys on site, but Dez doesn't recognize her at first. There are many players in this game but readers know that Dez is up to any challenge. We enjoy the lively dialogue along the way - and a cliffhanger at the end raises intriguing questions.
