Kirkus Reviews Baksheesh (Bribes)

Today, Kirkus Reviews posted their review of Baksheesh (Bribes), Book 5 of the Spies Lie series:

“Author Kane shows no sign of running out of wild plot twists and corrupt figures out to destroy Cassie, not to mention the world…readers will be swept away on the tidal wave of sexy, espionage-laced prose…More wild, violent adventures in the world of international espionage.” – Kirkus Reviews

DS Kane to be interviewed on NPR Radio this coming Sunday (8/16) at 11 a.m.


Would you like to know what it’s like to be a covert operative? DS Kane will be interviewed by Marty Nemko on KALW 91.7 FM (NPR Radio, San Francisco) this Sunday, August 16, 2015. Tune in to Work with Marty Nemko and listen for just over half an hour and get an inside look at what it takes to be a spy.

Kane will answer Marty Nemko's questions, including these:
  • I’d imagine that if deception is key to being a spy, you need to be a good liar.  Are black operatives trained on how to avoid their lies being detected? If so, what do they teach you?
  • Has being an undercover asset made you more or less trusting of people in your real life?
  • Is there a cyberthreat that particularly worries you?
  • You said there are over 1,200 intelligence services in the U.S. Why so many?
  • The relationship of the US to Arab states seems to be getting stronger while getting weaker with Israel. Is that affecting how US intelligence services and Israel’s, the Mossad, are working together?

If you are in the San Francisco Bay area, you can listen to KALW 91.7 FM (NPR-SF). If you are an out-of-towner, listen on-line at http://kalw.org/listen-live.
