LASSITER/MARTINEZ CASE FILES:

 

“Badal delivers a nice tight mystery and two wonderful female detectives you’ll be cheering for. Don’t miss ‘Borderline.’ ”
—Catherine Coulter, New York Times Bestselling Author of “Nemesis”

 Amazon #1 Best-Selling Book

"Relentless from start to finish. Badal just gets better and better.”
—David Morrell, New York Times Bestselling Author of “Murder As a Fine Art”

 "Natural Causes is a blistering, bracing and bold thriller that races out of the gate and finishes in an all-out spring. Joseph Badal's third tale to feature detectives Barbara Lassiter and Susan Martinez sets them on the trail of a killer targeting residents at a retirement community that gives a whole new meaning to the phrase 'golden years.' But Badal also sprinkles in organized crime and politics into his already savory literary mind snack, resulting in a tour de force of a crime thriller that is not to be missed."

--Jon Land, USA Today bestselling author of the Murder, She Wrote series

 

 Everything to Lose pits New Mexico homicide detectives Barbara Lassiter and Susan Martinez against a duo of mass murderers terrorizing Albuquerque, New Mexico...and then their arch-nemesis, Lisa French, targets the detectives for murder.

"Set against the stark beauty of New Mexico, Everything to Lose is gripping, compelling, and at times, just plain fun."

--Paul Kemprecos, #1 New York Times Bestselling Author

THE CURTIS CHRONICLES:

 

“ ‘The Motive’ is a nail biter I couldn’t put down. Joseph Badal knows how to make his legion of readers sweat to the very last paragraph. He has mastered the art of writing—and suspense. Bravo!” 
—Parris Afton Bonds, Award-Winning Author of “Dream Time”

"Obsessed," the second in The Curtis Chronicles, continues the conflict between protagonists, Matt & Renee Curtis, and the hyper-evil Lonnie Jackson. The action takes the reader from Brazil to New Mexico. Released in June 2018.

"'Justice,' the 3rd in the Curtis Chronicles, whips around the world at breakneck speed and dives into the dark world of human trafficking. Wonderful characters, a rapid-fire plot, and action that will make you sweat. Highly recommended."
--DP Lyle, award-winning author of the Jake Longly and Cain/Harper thriller series.

Steven F. Havill, Award-winning Author of the Posadas County Mystery Series 

 

"Crisp writing, masterful pacing, and characters to genuinely care about. This is what top-notch suspense is all about."
Michael Palmer, New York Times Bestselling Author

" 'Death Ship' is action-adventure at its absolute best; a thinking man's thriller that mixes in a hefty dose of heart and soul as well. Joseph Badal's fifth and best book in his Danforth Saga maintains the epic quality of the past titles while taking his craft to a level on par with the likes of James Rollins, Steve Berry and Brad Thor. Not to be missed!"  
Jon Land, USA Today Bestselling Author
