Story Being in a coma is the least of her problems. She must find out who beat her senseless and what they're plotting to do now, not only to her but to the power grid of the entire state. The last thing Ash expects is to be stalked by a troubled teenager. If that's not bad enough, she's caught in a shooting spree. Hiding under a car, she can't see the shooter. How will she identify him? Everyone things he took a vow: "Do No Harm"—but did he? Can Ash put her life in his hands? Should she expose his dark past before he has a chance to harm her loved ones? At first, he plays dead. But for her, this is no game. If not stopped in time, he'll rob her of her identity and slit her throat. Can Ash stay one step ahead of him?

Editorial Reviews

Review

  • "Suspenseful as well as downright scary and will draw the readers into a web of mystery. The author's descriptive passages throughout continue to trap and at the same time, shed a sufficient amount of doubt into our minds. Who is this shooter and what is his connection to the main story?" ~Serenity, Hall of Fame, Top 10 Reviewer
  • "Beauty of prose bound together with a sensitive thriller make this a very special new series from a very fine writer. With follow-up of this stature the continuation of this series is assured! Highly recommended." ~Grady Harp, Hall of Fame, Top 50 Reviewer
  • "I read the first book in the series, Coma Confidential--a wonderful psychological thriller-- and was thrilled when Overkill was released so that I could continue to follow young college student Ashley in her startling exploits." ~Aaron Paul Lazar, USA Today Bestselling Author
  • "Uvi Poznanski transports us with her stunning prose, well-rounded characters, and dialogue. The plot twists are complete surprises, and pull us on to see what's next. Nothing is what it appears to be, which is exactly what you'd want in a solid mystery thriller with a dash of romance." ~ J.A. Schneider, Author of Suspense and Psychological Thrillers
  • "This is a story that will keep you on the edge of your seat, but it will also tear at your heart.." ~Jan Romes, Author
  • "I had to keep reading because the action was continuous and the conflicts kept popping up - hurdle after hurdle." ~ Mimi Barbour, USA Today bestselling author
  • "Just when it looks like the plot is going in one direction, it creatively shifts into a different or parallel subplot. There's a lot happening in this romantic (slightly) thriller..." ~ Elaine C Pereira, Author
  • " Twists and turns you never see coming made this reader think, "Yikes, never expected that." ~ Susan Ricci, USA Today Bestselling Author
  • "The author weaves a well-crafted Suspense Thriller with a generous sprinkling of Romance. Intriguing twists and turns also ensures that this book will captivate the reader from the first page to the last. I've read this author several times before and it's safe to say that her storylines leaves the reader spellbound." ~Piaras, Vine Voice Reviewer

Having moved to Troy, N.Y. with her husband and two children, Uvi received a Fellowship grant and a Teaching Assistantship from the Architecture department at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. There, she guided teams in a variety of design projects and earned her M.A. in Architecture. Then, taking a sharp turn in her education, she earned her M.S. degree in Computer Science from the University of Michigan.

She worked first as an architect, and later as a software engineer, software team leader, software manager and a software consultant (with an emphasis on user interface for medical instruments devices.)

    5.0 out of 5 stars Another Great Novel by Uvi Poznansky.
    Reviewed in the United States on May 6, 2020

    Overkill (Ash Suspense Thrillers with a Dash of Romance Book 2) by Uvi Poznansky is a wonderfully written and richly descriptive novel with brilliantly drawn characters and settings. The author weaves a well-crafted Suspense Thriller with a generous sprinkling of Romance. Intriguing twists and turns also ensures that this book will captivate the reader from the first page to the last. I’ve read this author several times before and it’s safe to say that her storylines leaves the reader spellbound. Uvi Poznansky leaves the reader again mesmerized with her latest novel. From beginning to end the author holds the reader’s interest.

    I enjoyed the story, character development, and dialogue. There were plenty of plot twists that I didn’t see coming and that added to the book’s mystique. When I stopped reading to work, I found myself wondering what happened in the book, and replaying parts of the novel in my head to see if I could figure more out. It has been a while since I enjoyed a book this much. It’s a first-class Suspenseful Thriller with perfect pacing. Not much is as it appears here, which is just the way fans of mystery, thriller and suspense will want it!

    The book description gives only a sneak preview: ‘The last thing Ash expects when she lands in Clearwater, Florida is to be stalked by a troubled teenager. If that's not bad enough, she is caught in a shooting spree next to the nearby elementary school. The cops think it’s an attempt at mass killing, but Ash wonders if the only victim was specifically targeted by the killer. Will she manage to identify him and have him arrested before he comes after her?’

    Now, if that’s not enough to grab your attention, I don’t know what will. But if you want to find out what happens, you’ll just have to turn the pages for yourself! However, I will say it was well worth the read. I’ve read this author several times before and she delivers every time.

    The story had every element an excellent story should have. A solid plot, attention to detail, but best of all fleshed out, well-written and well-rounded character development. There’s an abundance of well-illustrated scenes that make you feel you are right there in the story, and that’s something I look for in a good book.

    This was a fascinating and captivating read that had me immersed from the beginning. The story flowed from scene to scene with ease, and as always, the author shows exceptional ability when it comes to storytelling. There are plenty of attention-grabbing moments in this page turner that will take the reader on a truly mesmerizing journey!

    I’ll be looking forward to reading more from this author in the future. Highly recommended and a well-deserved five stars from me.

    5.0 out of 5 stars ‘Who, if you don’t mind me asking, is buried in here?’
    Reviewed in the United States on May 5, 2020
    Verified Purchase
    Uvi Poznansky wears a coat of many colors. Originally from Israel where she studied Architecture and Town Planning then moving to the US where she studied Computer Science and became an expert in Software Engineering, Poznansky managed to combine the design elements of two studies into unique formats. And she has accomplished the same with the other side of her brain - making visual her ideas (she is an accomplished painter, drawer, and sculptor who has enjoyed exhibitions both in Israel and in California, her present base) and making words in poetry and in short stories and children's books. APART FROM LOVE: Still Life with Memories is an adult romance in five parts, and now Uvi continues her series – the Ash Suspense Thrillers that combine the thriller genre with romance – with OVERKILL, Book 2.

    Having well established her principal character, Ashley aka Ash, in Book 1 COMA CONFIDENTIAL, Uvi provides further adventures as she opens with the following: ‘It’s not immediately that I notice the smell. Perhaps it’s been covered – at least the first moment, when I’ve stepped over the threshold – by the salty spindrift blowing in from Tampa Bay. Or else, perhaps I’ve been too distracted, too stirred up by this fever of mine, this excitement, caused by my impulsive move to Clearwater, at least until the end of my winter break. If I like it here, I may even stay here, who cares about school. Far from UCI Campus, free from the pressure of exams, and away from everyone I know, I can experiment with who I want to become. Let me start making a new life for myself. Let me start healing.’

    Uvi’s skill at both visual and written art is outstanding, but her history of diversity does not end there. Her brief synopsis gels the plot – ‘Months after recovering from coma, Ash discovers that the man who performed her brain surgery has a questionable medical experience and a dark past. Should she expose him, at the risk of becoming vulnerable to his revenge? The last thing Ash expects when she lands in Clearwater, Florida is to be stalked by a troubled teenager. If that's not bad enough, she is caught in a shooting spree next to the nearby elementary school. The cops think it’s an attempt at mass killing, but Ash wonders if the only victim was specifically targeted by the killer. Will she manage to identify him and have him arrested before he comes after her?’

    Beauty of prose bound together with a sensitive thriller make this a very special new series from a very fine writer. With follow-up of this stature the continuation of this series is assured! Highly recommended. Grady Harp, May 20

    The deft hand of a poet dabbles with soft touches and images throughout this exciting thriller. The main character moves through the story from one unexpected twist to the next. Unputdownable. What I liked best about this story was the fine writing and down-to-earth world. How normal people get trapped in nightmarish scenarios makes the story so believable. Well worth the read. Highly recommended.

    I was given a preview copy. I like to be useful and by providing a typo-sweep, I get read it early... I'm a huge fan of Uvi Poznansky's writing, must have read everything she's published... This is a great addition to the collection. Would love to see this series televised. Well Done Uvi.
