	A Conversation With Gayle Lynds Writers Write -- The IWJ
		Gayle is a former investigative reporter and an editor with Top Secret security clearance at a think tank where her government projects ranged from making deserts bloom to designing cutting-edge military hardware that had the capacity to wipe life from entire continents.
		Gayle and her husband, fellow author Dennis Lynds, live in a house overlooking the Pacific Ocean.
		Gayle talked with us about her journey from being a newspaper reporter to bestselling author, how she created her hot new thriller, Mesmerized, and what it was like to co-write a book with Robert Ludlum.

		Gayle Lynds: The Coil is the sequel to Masquerade, a continuing story of a family of spies and assassins, but also a political thriller.
		Gayle Lynds: The intricacy, I suppose, is due to all of the research.
		Gayle, I would like to move on to the entire genre of spy fiction, and the "re-birth" that it has been undergoing recently.

	Review \| The Coil by Gayle Lynds
		In order to survive, Liz is forced to plunge back into that shadowy world, relying on all of her savvy and rusty skills as an operative in order to protect herself and those she cares about.
		One distinctly refreshing aspect of Lynds' writing is that she uses fewer of the swift reversals, baseless double-crosses and improbable coincidences that have long been seemingly necessary, but often distracting, elements of the thriller.
		As a former U.S. government think-tanker with a Top Secret security clearance, Lynds knows enough about the shadowy world that her characters inhabit to ensure that her stories have, at the very least, the semblance of veracity.

		Lynds (Masquerade) writes splendid action scenes, but though she expertly rides the roller coaster of Julia's alternately blind and seeing states, the off-again on-again affliction is hard to believe.
		I felt Lynds threw too much at me at once and I was ready to put this back on the shelf for another time (I don't handle overwhelm very well!).
		Lynds writes so vividly that reading her books is like watching a movie in your mind.

		Lynds, whose background includes journalism and high-level involvement with international security, makes her amnesia victim, Liz Sansborough, a poignant and recognizable character.
		It would not be hyperbole to say that Gayle Lynds has written a novel that feels like a race to find out who Liz Sansborough is and why these men are trying to kill/capture her.
		Lynds has made some strides in breaking away from simply aping Robert Ludlum's style, but this book has a little too much going on.

		As Gayle explains in a Question and Answer dialogue with readers, "Holding on to one's ideals while working for a better world is the most difficult personal challenge.

	Gayle Lynds speaks to Ali Karim for Shots Ezine, Part 2
		But when I finished the manuscript, I again ran into tired sexism: She told me, “Boys won’t read books written by girls.” She gave me the choice of the book’s not being published or of hiding my female identity behind initials.
		At the time, I was writing as Gayle Stone, since it was my name while married to my first husband, and I hadn’t bothered to change it yet.
		I wanted to write for the series, and I was fed up with fighting the silliness of sexism, so for the three books I wrote in the series, I became G.H. Stone.

		Author Gayle Lynds’ style has been compared to the late Robert Ludlum’s, and she co-authored a thriller with him (The Hades Factor).
		And, of course, there’s the seemingly interminable length as the story line hustles from one crisis to the next.
		This is a tried and true formula; one that has kept a multitude of readers engrossed to the final page.

	Orange Book Haven. Robert Ludlum's The Paris Option, Robert Ludlum & Gayle Lynds (A Covert-One Novel)(Large Print)
		For 30 years, Robert Ludlum's novels have set the standard for the finest in international intrigue and suspense.
		One of my favorite aspects of a Ludlum novel is the intricate intrigue he creates.
		I don't know how much of this is Ludlum, and how much is Lynds, but it's one heck of a terrific entwining of villains and maybe-villains.

	Book Review of The Last Spymaster Gayle Lynds
		The clock ticks as Elaine Cunningham attempts to lead Tice into a trap while staying clear of Ghranditti's hounds and agents from within the CIA who are intent on killing her.
		Like the beginning moments of Three Days of the Condor, Gayle Lynds seems to follow a tried and true formula.
		Lynds keeps the pressure on, allowing only a few minutes' breathing space before beginning a chase that becomes more and more breathless and convoluted.
