James Michael Larranaga

Adolescents et jeunes adultes
Larranaga writes about corporate crimes and conspiracies. Much of the author's inspiration takes a "truth is stranger than fiction" approach and his novels are based loosely on real crimes and events. In his latest novel, "In The Company of Wolves," Larranaga uses his 25 years of experience in the financial services industry to expose the hidden sub-culture of Death Brokers who choose greed over human lives. Larranaga's fans have this to say about his latest book... Goodreads Reviews: "James Michael Larranaga's ability to describe the ethics and working methods of the company are scary but believable." "In the Company of Wolves is intriguing and fascinating. Every time you think you have figured it all out, the author tosses in another little twist and you're once again reading late into the night to see what is coming next. The leading character, Quin, is amazingly complex and troubled. Before long, you aren't sure what is real and what is simply in Quin's mind. The correlation between the predatory businessmen and a pack of wolves was a perfect touch." "I loved how this book was structured in the fashion of comparing the activity of wolves to the hierarchy of a cutthroat sales industry. You never realize how much our actions can mimic those of the natural world until such a comparison is made. The main character was quite interesting to follow, having the story develop about him from the perspective of others." "I liked the Native American elements of this novel, the use of symbols such as the ravens that Quin sees, and the wolf analogies. Safe Haven has many types of "wolf" in its sales force and they prey as a pack seeking out the weak and the wealthy at hospitals and hospices to build up a list of prospects which they then use to make their financial killing." "This was an interesting premise and a fun read! Characters are well done and believable, and the entire set-up is not all that far-fetched. Quin is excellent. The way the author writes the story, with the comparison between those at Safe Haven and a wolf pack, was fascinating." "Characters are well drawn and both likeable and hate-able. Descriptions of the Minnesota winter are realistic enough to send the readers scurrying for their sweaters. All in all, a very excellent read." "The villains in this piece are unredeemable; bankrupt of emotions and kindness, motivated by pure greed. Larranaga's characters are fully developed and interesting and you never quite know where they will lead you or just who is telling the truth. Lighthorn is an unreliable narrator, that is established fairly early in the piece but towards the end of the narrative when all the story and his history is fully revealed we are left to reconsider our opinions, I liked this aspect." "I really love a good plot twist, and there were a lot of them in this story. It was also fairly quick paced and easy to read. The author has a way of dropping just enough to keep you wanting to know what will happen next."
