Customer Reviews

Rooting for the underdog

It doesn't take long into this novel before you are rooting for the main character, Ramon Willis. On death row for a murder he didn't committ, supposedly executed but actually taken to a secret government location and exposed to biological weapons. He's rescued, but then his rescuer . . . Well, I don't want to give too much away. I recommend Peter Thompson's book to anyone who loves an edge-of-your-seat thriller. Pick it up today and I guarantee you'll be cheering for Ramon by chapter three.

Fast-paced page-turner, highly recommended for Ludlum fans

Whenever I'm scheduled for a long airplane flight, I always try to have the most recent Robert Ludlum book in my carry-on bag. Last trip I'd already finished every Ludlum book on the shelf and I happened across Living Proof. Lucky for me. It's got lots of twists and turns and lots of action, which is what I look for in a novel to take on a plane. I was about 20 pages short of finishing the book when the plane landed, so I actually plopped down into a seat in the terminal and finished it before I picked up the rental car.

His Only Crime is Surviving

This was a book I couldn't put down. I tried to--started reading Living Proof last night, then woke up at 4:30 a.m. thinking about it--and couldn't do another thing until I finished it today. The story unfolds at breakneck pace. Each scene seems so real, believable, and exciting. Peter Thompson really knows how to write--plot, character development, he has it all down pat. I can't wait for his second book to come out. In the meantime, I hope Living Proof will be made into a movie! I'm going to go out now and buy six more copies to give to my friends. This new author is really something!

Living Proof

This new thiller from Peter J. Thompson will keep you on the edge of your sit. From the first page till the last, this creative and exciting story takes the reader on a roller coaster ride of suspense. I loved it and have bought copies to give to some friends. I can't wait for Mr. Thompson's next book.
