"An original and compelling read
from beginning to end, "The Cost of Crude" by author Inge-Lise Goss
clearly demonstrates her master of the mystery/suspense genre and is very
highly recommended..."--Midwest Book Review
"The Cost of Crude is a
work of fiction--a modern-day murder mystery, set against the backdrop of a two
large-scale oil companies dueling for maximum profits. It is a page-turning
thriller that continuously challenges the reader's assumptions about what will
happen next." --The
Portsmouth Review
"Inge-Lise Goss' romantic thriller, The Cost of Crude, is exciting and
fast-paced. The author's experience auditing oil and gas companies makes the
story feel authentic and real. Gwynn and Ruben are great main characters, both
headstrong, independent and determined to keep things professional, and it's
fun watching them interact. The plot is well-developed and the reader is
swiftly thrown into action from the very first page. I enjoyed seeing how Ruben
and his security team worked together and functioned as a team, complete with
undercover agents and even a doctor who has miracle healing salves that work overnight.
The Cost of Crude is also filled with political intrigue and the main story
line is especially relevant with current concerns over the environment and the
effects the oil and gas industries are having on it. The Cost of Crude is
recommended reading." --Jack Magnus, Readers FavoriteReviewer
"A slick and well-crafted petro-thriller...Goss delivers a tightly written
narrative with smartly rendered back drops from the start, where action comes
quick and intrigue is sure to keep the pages turning."--Book Viral
"The Cost of Crude is a
hard-to-put-down thriller. It won me over quickly, and every one of the many
sticky situations Gwynn Reznick gets into has me reading as fast as I can to
see if she can win free." --Book Ideas
