James R. Callan



Reviews for A Silver Medallion


A Silver Medallion is a gripping, action-packed adventure from talented author James Callan. Crystal Moore is a tough and savvy heroine who knows no fear.

New York Times Bestselling Author Bobbi Smith


A Silver Medallion, the second title in the Crystal Moore Suspense series, reads like a gold-medal thriller from page one, when Crystal Moore and her grandmother take in a young Hispanic woman who escaped from a drug-dealing, modern-day Texas slaveholder. Crystal emerges as a compelling heroine with a big heart and bold personality, and her fierce independence allows Callan the creative freedom to take his character into the heart of Mexico to rescue two young girls she's never met. ...

From BookLife Prize in Fiction, Critic's Report


The book heats up like a wood-burning sauna. The fuel he uses is suspenseful escalations, gifted writing, and a heart-gripping premise that is based on true--and truly awful--realities of slavery in our twenty-first century. Callan delivers. Powerfully. His heroine--the vulnerable, spunky Crystal Moore--and her courage will warm you to the core.

I wanted something to read before bed. WHAT a mistake!!! This book kept me up for many nights. I could not put it down! The Silver Medallion is the second in the Crystal Moore series and quite different from the first, but with the same well developed characters - you feel like you are seeing old friends again. ... Highly recommended.

I bought A Silver Medallion at a book signing and, once started reading, couldn't put it down. ... This is a great read.

E. Faber


James Callan's A Silver Medallion is a fine blend of colorful characters, action, suspense, and serious. Crystal Moore and her grandmother, Eula, are a great team as they take on modern-day slavery and academic fraud in this nonstop novel. Check it out!
