Description
For fans of Dan Brown and Clive Cussler, THE LOCH NESS LEGACY is a "fantastic read" (Graham Brown) that "delivers an adrenaline fueled thrill ride" (Allison Brennan).
BOOK DESCRIPTION:
1827 -- During a trek to Loch Ness, Scotland, a young Charles Darwin encounters a mysterious and terrifying creature that provides a spark for his evolutionary theory.
2013 -- Almost two hundred years later and across the Channel in Paris, the Eiffel Tower is under attack. Only through detective work, intuition, and a judicious application of high-tech weaponry does former Army combat engineer Tyler Locke prevent a massacre.
What Tyler doesn't know is that the assault is just the beginning of a conspiracy so dark that it not only threatens the lives of those he loves, but could also ignite World War III. Racing against time to uncover Darwin's centuries-old secret, he must solve a series of cryptic clues to find a manuscript that has been so cleverly hidden it hasn't been seen since the Victorian age.
Tyler's quest takes him from the bustling tourist hotspots of Seattle to the splendor of Versailles to the remote Highlands of Scotland in a battle to reveal the shocking truth behind the legend of the Loch Ness monster.

REVIEWS:
"Boyd Morrison's Loch Ness Legacy is a fantastic read: part mystery, part thriller, part scientific exploration. Like his character, Tyler Locke, Morrison is at home with high-technology, the latest gadgets and the weaving of great escapes from the most dangerous of perils. Both are up to the challenge here, as the world faces a new danger from its warlike past, one that leads eventually to Scotland, the lake known to so many and the legendary creature that may haunt its dark and foreboding waters."
—Graham Brown, #1 NY Times bestselling author of THE EDEN PROPHECY and DEVIL'S GATE
"A quartet of heroes worth cheering for, an enemy as sinister as they come, secrets from the past, more action that you can shake a broadsword at and the Loch. Ness. Monster! What more could you ask for in a thriller? Loch Ness Legacy is a perfect storm of history, science and action that is sure to please anyone with a pulse, and maybe a few without them."
—Jeremy Robinson, bestselling author of RAGNAROK and ISLAND 731
"The Loch Ness Legacy starts with a bang and delivers an adrenaline fueled thrill ride to the very end. Tyler Locke is my new favorite hero! If you like Dan Brown and James Rollins, you'll love Boyd Morrison."
—Allison Brennan, NY Times bestselling author of STOLEN
"Boyd Morrison delivers yet another fast paced, action-packed adventure that will leave you breathless."
—Douglas Richards, NY Times bestselling author of AMPED

Review for The Loch Ness Legacy
5By Da man23Amazing, intelligent, suspenseful, exciting read! The Tyler Locke series are addicting& so very entertaining! I hope the author continues to write more of the series, allowing readers to "follow" Tyler Locke on his journeys. The gradual revelations of Tyler Locke's personal life & character adds a great dimension to the stories. He becomes a relatable & likable hero. Look forward to more exciting adventures with Tyler& Grant!Great Nessie Adventure!!
5By GdoodlefanI have read all the Tyler Locke series. While I enjoyed the earlier ones, this one really jumped out and grabbed me! I don't know if it was the lure of the Loch Ness Creature or if I've just grown into a fan of this author. Either way it was an adrenaline pumped adventure!It Lives
5By CeltpopI am a BIG fan of the techno-thriller and adventure books and this one Hit he Mark...dead center. The most fascinating thing, besides having the worlds favorite sea creature "Nessie" in the book he had some well developed characters that seemed so real. You found yourself actually visualizing what Tyler and Grant looked like. Not all books can do that. The best part is how he developed his evil nemesis and his dastardly henchmen and henchwoman. They played a critical part in the success of the story and their parts kept you on the edge of your seat. I read the book in the mornings sitting on the deck of my home with strong cup of coffee to keep me awake so I would not miss a single word. I recommend this book to anyone who need some adrenaline to get the day stArted as it is action packed and just plain fun to read.Definitely a stretch but very entertaining
4By Superbly9As a fan of Steve Berry's Cotton Malone I thought I would give this a try. Definitely of the same vein and the concept is wild but I enjoyed the read and the protagonists. Will probably read more in the series.My Heart's in the Highlands
5By PatinolSome 40 years ago, my sister and I stuck our hands in Loch Ness from the shore of Urquhart Castle, with great trepidation, I might say. At that time it was just a romantic ruin - no glass door, no gift shop. Fond memories of two young women high on Nessie lore! Boyd Morrison is new to me, but I will be reading more of his work. His locale descriptions are evocative without being too wordy, his action is non-stop, his characters jump off the page and become the reader's friend. The Loch Ness Legacy is a "hard to put down" book!Emsimms78
1By Emsimms78Worst. Book. Ever. A total waste of my time. The author must think that most readers are of a far lower intellect than himself. Word to the wise: "fancy" wording does not a book make especially when it makes NO sense at all. Total waste of money. DO NOT BUY.The Loch Ness Legacy
1By Flt. BigglesGarbage!The Loch Ness legacy
1By J301dWhatever made him think to tie these two subjects together is beyond me. What a waste of money. I would pass if it was free.Fun
4By FgexGood summer read if a bit predictableMaster storyteller
5By ChrizzlefoshizBoyd has the unique ability to tell far out stories and make you feel like its totally possible. This is no different. Tyler Locke is such a perfect hero. You wont be able to put it down and will scramble to read all of his others.
