Harvey Bennett Thrillers Box Set 1

Reggie looked around to see if the others agreed with his assessment. They were still looking at the large television and the upper half of Mr. E on it, but each of them were slowly nodding along.
‘Yes, though you too will be hired,’ he said. ‘I believe in valuing people by paying them what they are worth. In addition to a bonus for your time in Antarctica, this new group will provide you each with a stipend that I believe should prove quite generous. Since the exact nature of the work is a bit vague, I will have Mrs. E hand you the compensation package now, but I will give you some time to consider it.’
“Like, a few minutes?”
‘A few months. Take some time to rest, Gareth. You as well, Joshua. If you accept, there will be training programs designed individually for each of you. And Julie and Ben, I suppose you two will get little rest. I hear a congratulations is in order.’
Reggie and Joshua laughed, and Mrs. E smiled. Ben’s face flushed a bit, but Julie reached over and placed her hand on his arm.
Reggie watched, his huge smile returning, and waited for Ben to look over at him. “Ben, if Joshua ends up being your best man over me, I’ll make sure your face stays like that forever.”
Afterword
If you liked this book (or even if you hated it…) write a review or rate it . You might not think it makes a difference, but it does.
Besides actual currency (money), the currency of today’s writing world is reviews . Reviews, good or bad, tell other people that an author is worth reading.
As an “indie” author, I need all the help I can get. I’m hoping that since you made it this far into my book, you have some sort of opinion on it.
Would you mind sharing that opinion ? It only takes a second.
