Interview with Blake Russell, author of JET

My JET series is an adrenaline-fueled thrill ride in the tradition of Bond and Bourne, but with a female protagonist who can kick butt and take names. Jet, the codename of the Mossad’s most deadly operative, faked her death to get out of the clandestine life, but now the past has caught up with her and she must take on ruthless adversaries who want her dead at all costs. It’s an over-the-top, take no prisoners roller-coaster of a novel that leaves most readers gasping for breath by the end. Perhaps best of all, the first novel in the series is free for a limited time.

That’s great. What genre is it?
Action/Adventure Thriller. Spy thriller as well.

What kind of readers will it appeal to?
Any thriller readers who like Ludlum or Forsyth will find Jet to be right up their alley. It’s literally non-stop action from start to finish featuring a heroine that breaks the mold. Female readers love Jet.

Tell us more about Jet.
Jet is 28, as lethal as a cobra, and escaped her operational life by “dying” in an explosion. She relocated to an island paradise using a new identity, but somebody wants to even an old score, and her plans are shattered when they send a hit squad after her. She’s tough, sexy, strong, and gritty, and is as unflinching as any female protagonist ever seen in the genre.

Complete this sentence for us: if you like _________________, you’ll love the Jet series.
Bourne or Kill Bill.

Have you written any other books that we should read next?
Ha! 22 novels at last count. Readers who enjoy the JET series will also like the Assassin series, beginning with King of Swords.

Twenty-two?! How do you find time for anything else? Tell us about yourself.
I’ve lived in Mexico for the last decade, near a beach, and am living the dream life for an author, doing it full time while I sip margaritas with my toes in the sand. So far so good.

What’s next?
I’m hard at work on a new series, titled BLACK, that chronicles the misadventures of Hollywood PI Artemis Black, a down-on-his-luck private investigator to the stars. I’m also about to release a bio-thriller that’s the most controversial of any I’ve seen, titled Upon A Pale Horse, probably mid-July, 2013.
