Book Information 

It has been eighteen months since Danny Felix pulled off the robbery of his life.  His plan brought London to a standstill, but at a heavy price.

Now, living a quiet life running a charter fishing business in the Florida Keys, Danny is trying to come to terms with the death and destruction he had unwittingly unleashed. However, the low profile is beginning to wear thin and he soon starts to crave the adrenalin rush of his former criminal ways. 

Little does he know that three very different women are about to enter his life and turn it upside-down. Soon Danny finds himself right back in the action.

But why has he been chosen? And does he have the appetite to pull off another job where the stakes are so lethally high?

My Review 

4☆ A great second book. Was great seeing Danny again.

Godsend is the second book in the Danny Felix series.
Although this is a series it can be read as a standalone without any problem.

The beginning of the book we see Danny intervene in a holdup by two young girls.
It was like a comedy strip it had me laughing.

Danny is now in Florida laying low after all the chaos he left behind in London.
He has bought a Fishing business and is enjoying the quiet life.
Although Danny is suffering horrific panic attacks from his past.
Or is this all about to change.

There is a side story in the midst, which to begin with I was wondering how this was going to pan out.
It involves the Church and Vincent Cardell.
Vincent is into schemes and uses the Church to fund his money laundering.

Hmm so where does Danny for into this and why is Vincent's wife June looking for him?

I really enjoyed this book. It isn't so action packed and hectic as the first book.
But I enjoyed that. It was nice to see a different side to Danny.
Danny the loveable rogue.
Unfortunately trouble just seems to follow him. He Is definitely one of my favourite criminals.

Godsend is a slower paced crime thriller that builds up suspense and intrigue slowly.
It was nice to see a different kind of crime taking place via the Church instead of your typical drugs & prostitution etc...
Don't get me wrong there is still violence and sinister characters but it was just a different feel to it.

I would definitely recommend this book if you enjoy crime thrillers that are a little different, contain humour & violence.

Author Bio 


John A. Marley’s writing career started with a poem about two brothers who both liked sausages…their names were Butch and Dutch and his Primary School teacher Mr. Murray liked it so much it made the main noticeboard at the entrance to Holy Child Primary School in West Belfast.  A little older but none the wiser, he ended up as a film journalist in his native Northern Ireland, contributing to local newspapers, BBC Radio Ulster and latterly writing as the main film critic for the glossy magazine, Northern Woman.

John’s love of good stories came from the Irish predilection for telling a good yarn and the fact that there was nothing quite like sneaking away his Dad’s battered paperbacks to read even though he knew they were meant for adults and not kids. And so pulp fiction such as The Edge Westerns by George G. Gilman, the adventure novels of Alistair MacLean and the thrillers of Jack Higgins all served to whet his appetite for a good story told at pace.

These days, his reading tastes still focus on thrills, spills and good plot and he can’t walk by a James Lee Burke or an Elmore Leonard without pausing to read a few pages…even if it is in a busy bookshop. 

John A. Marley is also a TV producer with a proven track record in creating and producing distinctive, original entertainment and factual programming and formats for both a UK and international audience. His eclectic portfolio of high-profile shows include Britain’s Ultimate Pilots: Inside the RAF, Britain’s Flying Past, Staraoke, Best of Friends, Skatoony, Noel’s House Party, Through the Keyhole, SMTV:Live/CD:UK, How Euro Are You? and live coverage of “The Oscars” with Barry Norman.

John runs his own production company Archie Productions which he launched in 2008. Prior to setting up his own indie, John enjoyed a wide and varied career in television will creative roles at Talent Television, Planet 24, Carlton Television and Walt Disney UK. John’s broadcast media career started in his native Northern Ireland as a radio host.

Godsend is the follow up to John’s debut novel, Standstill in which we first met master thief Danny Felix.
