Code Raven #1
Xposed
XPOSED is a wild action-adventure novella that uncovers a dark and dangerous world of high-level intrigue, passion, power, and greed.
After seizing millions of dollars from an illegal arms-for-drugs deal between a rogue CIA faction, and a South American cartel, Luci retires from clandestine operations and hides out in Central America with her four-year-old daughter. Spotted by her enemies, she is chased up the Pacific coast to Mexico where she is saved by teammates of ex-Navy SEAL Zach, a member of ‘Raven’s Group.’
Meanwhile, the US government is in the throes of cyber warfare with China. Luke Raven, a high-tech billionaire, is the only man that can save America from the deadly fallout. He enlists the help of Luci, an ex-Mossad assassin, who now feels an obligation to Luke Raven for rescuing her.
They take their high-stakes adventure across the USA and over the ocean to Paris. The action culminates in Shanghai, China where an ultra-wealthy and ruthless business tycoon possesses highly sensitive information that would have catastrophic results for the USA in the wrong hands. But will they get there soon enough to secure the data from their enemies?

About the author
Lynda Filler
32 books167 followers2022 I'm currently in Istanbul, Turkey an amazing city for a writer who sees plots everywhere. I left Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, a town of hot humid days and sultry passionate nights, in early 2019 to travel the world. Istanbul was a two-day layover in a multi-country trip of several months. But I fell in love with Istanbul and a Turk. After I used up all my one-way tickets, I let my heart lead the way and came back to Istanbul. CAFE CONFIDENTIAL is that story! https://amzn.to/3dKBAWA
I write spy/mystery, romantic suspense, memoir, and poetry. I've been accused of writing based-on-real-events-and-character stories in my Code Raven Series. I will definitely admit that there are a few real-life characters and events in each one of my books! But a girl never kisses and tells, right?
The demand for more memoirs has led me to write Destiny's Daughter. As Humpty Dumpty would say: We all fall down. And fall down I did towards the end of lockdowns during the pandemic. Destiny's Daughter shares the journey from vitamin C to Xanax. It hasn't been easy, but in the interests of authenticity, I've kept it real. Thanks for the reviews. We average 4.8/5, so I know my message is touching hearts and sharing the message that we are all one. Your pain is mine, mine is yours. Thanks for being in my life and allowing me to be a part of yours.

Himanish (hacker, RAW, research analysis agent, India) had gone off the air & left Samaar (Mossad/MI6 agent) hanging.
She was $250,000,000 richer so her/daughter Alice (4) can live quite all right.
Danger still lurks around every corner for them though.
A powerboat was waiting for them. The skipper name is Jaime (aka Z-man).
Luci Huatulco was waiting for them as they got aboard.
Jorge, Joachim, & Moises had been after Luci for quite some time.
Samaar & Alice trusted/loved Yelapa & Lorena (widow, Texas A & M, miscarriage, 911).
Zach (Raven’s Group member, ex-USN SEAL) kept a watchful eye out for all of them.
What was Sying Li Ma (29, Chinese, Caltech U), Sam Woo, & their bunch up to?
Tasha’s father Vladimir Gregorki ruled the world. He controlled an empire of drugs, sex trafficking, information bartering/exchange.
You wanted entertainment Katching Kittens sex club was the place to go.
Jin Mao Grand Hyatt. Akaarn top tech expert, & Luke Raven (billionaire, 3 PhD, Caltech U professor, scientist, tech expert) had received some important news.
Warning: This book contains extremely graphic adult content, violence, or expletive language &/or uncensored sexually explicit material which is only suitable for mature readers. It may be offensive or have potential adverse psychological effects on the reader.
I did not receive any type of compensation for reading & reviewing this book. While I receive free books from publishers & authors, I am under no obligation to write a positive review, only an honest one. All thoughts & opinions are entirely my own.
A very awesome book cover, & great font/writing style. A very well written adventure book. It was very easy for me to read/follow from start/finish & never a dull moment. There were no grammar/typo errors, nor any repetitive or out of line sequence sentences. Lots of exciting scenarios, with several twists/turns & a great set of unique characters to keep track of. This could also make another great adventure movie, or better yet a mini TV series. To be continued? There is no doubt in my mind this is a very easy rating of 5 stars.

XPOSED: Code Raven 1 by Lynda Filler was action packed, steamy and full of twists and turns.
Not my first read by this author or in this series, there is a prequel centring on Luke Raven. Though you don't need to read it to get this book, but I do suggest giving a read, as you get the full back story on the mystery that is Luke Raven.
I love a good action flick, and this book is on the top of my list. Right out of the gate we are tossed into a dire situation, and things only escalate from there. Since I read the prequel, I already was aquatinted with the characters and some of their back stories. This is also where I believe reading that book helps, as you don't get that much back story in this book. As it is a short read, and jamed back to the gills with action, twist and turns, it didn't leave much room for introductions.
Everything about this book had me hooked, and the ending, way to end it on a cliffhanger. It does give you a tease for the next book, but still it left you feeling like something is about to go nuclear. I can't wait to dive into the next book, there is so much left unanswered, and so much more action that I know is coming. The only thing that I would like improved on, is detail. As this was a fast read, some of the more smaller details were over looked, and I think adding just a little bit more will make this book shine like the sun.
Overall I loved this book, this series, and it's definite super high recommendation from me.
Happy Reading

Even Though Almost All The 6 Books In The #CodeRavenSeries Set By LYNDA FILLER Happen To Be Standalone Novels Yet It Would Most Definitely Make Most Enjoyable Reading To Begin With A Code Raven Prequel And Get A Clear Picture Of Where It All Began And Once The Background Is Firmly Established Then Take It Forward From There One Bestseller At A Time...That’s The Way I Truly Relish Doing It For Maximum Reading Pleasure But To Each Their Own As Equal Joy Can Br Derived Taking Up Any Standalone Thriller Of LYNDA FILLER From This Set And Going Backwards & Forward And Any Which Way You May Choose To Take This Rollercoaster Ride That Is Never Short On The Thrills & Chills That Keeps The Readers On The Edge Of Their Seat From Start To Finish While Soaking In Every Single Word That Drips From The Pen Of LYNDA FILLER.
The Research And In-depth Analysis That The Author Puts Into These Mind Blowing Thrillers Not Only Keeps The Readers Enthralled But Also Amazed At The Homework She Does So Absolutely Meticulously Which Makes Even Her Fiction Appear To Be So True To Life.

I really am a cemented fan of this Code Raven series from Lynda Filler. This little novel really packs one heck of a punch. There really is never a dull moment and it incorporates action, mystery, danger, some steamy parts, and so much more. With the prequel we are set up completely for this book to be jumped right into. I would highly recommend that you read, Code Raven before you dive into this book. It sets up the main character of Luke Raven and the rest of the cast of characters for you to be able to really get into this story line.
Like I said, there is a lot going on, but Filler manages to balance it all so well, that you don’t ever feel overwhelmed. Luci, whom I really enjoyed as a character, and her daughter has been hiding out in Central America. Things went a little crazy during a large seize of illegal weapons and drugs. When she is found by the enemy she embarks on a journey to keep her and her child safe. They travel along the coast to and through to Mexico. There she is given a reprieve when she is rescued by Zach. Zach is part of Raven’s group. With his ex-NAVY SEAL training he is able to lend his skills to help.
While all this is going on we also see where Luke Raven is in this novel. He is in the middle of the cyber war that is going on between the U.S. and China. This is where Luci becomes helpful to Luke. She uses her skills gained as a former Mossad Assassin to help Luke and the group out. What starts as a feeling of obligation to the group for helping her escape her attackers, develops into much more, and leads to some steamy interactions between the characters.
We really get some awesome imagery and world-building in this novel too. They travel amongst places from Mexico to China, to Paris. I felt as if I was on this journey with them too. Filler really has a knack for drawing you into the story and making you feel as if you are right there with the characters. This group really works hard and well together, but will they be able to accomplish their goals and intercept the enemies from getting to their data that they are trying to protect? Will they be able to stick together through it all? Jump into the Luke Raven’s group and follow them on this journey. You will find yourself anxiously awaiting the next novel much as I am right now. Now I am off to one-click another Lynda Filler novel, while I await the next!

A great read about alliances. Spy agent Samaar (code name Luci) gets in trouble after mixing with a powerful drug lord family. Escaping to Mexico, she flees with her four year old daughter Alice in hope of finding sanctuary. When an ex Navy SEALs friend Zach rescues her, she doesn't know their is a price to pay, another dangerous mission steeped in mystery to stop a powerful adversary. will she be able to work with him to stop her or will it be too late?
A great read. Well developed plot with twists and turns that I just couldn't put down. Fast paced action and great dialogue made for a captivating read. Well developed characters like Samaar/ Luci trying to balance spy life with caring for her daughter or Zach standing up for himself with a caring nature underneath. A terrific supporting cast of fun friends ready for action like Maggs or RB and a terrific villain that will send shivers up your spine without being melodramatic.
I loved the visual detail throughout the novel like the inside of Luke Ravens house or the enemies lair full of small details as if you were actually there. The natural imagery was beautifully done in cases such as the Mexico coastline or the storm as something wild and dangerous but also wonderful. Once again, different cultures like Chinese and Israel were given the respect and admiration they deserve which was a lovely touch. the only issue I would raise is that sometimes it was hard to follow which character held the narrative but this could be resolved by perhaps ahvign the characters name at the top of each section to make this clearer.overall, a great read and I would give it five stars.

5 out of 5 stars
Xposed is the first book in the Code Raven Series written by Lynda Filler and it’s the second book that I have read by this author. The story line was really good we get to see espionage, love and loss and what the main character does to over-come his loss and what he has been up to since his loss.
Luke Raven aka Raven is the world's most elusive billionaire. He has a brain trust that cannot be controlled. And is a warrior and a patriot at heart. He is also the only man who can America from the deadly fallout in cyberwarfare with China.
Luci a highly trained operative, returns from Kosovo to retrieve two hundred and fifty million dollars in diamonds safely stored in Uruguay. Spotted by a drug cartel, she is chased up the Pacific coast of Mexico where she is saved by ex-Navy Seal Zach, a member of ‘Raven’s Group’.
Luke and his team recruit Luci to help execute a dangerous, highly classified special operations mission that is crucial to national security. Luci completes the critical Team Profile. They take their high-paced adventure across the USA and over the ocean to Paris. The action culminates in Shanghai, China where an ultra-wealthy and ruthless business tycoon possesses highly sensitive information that would have catastrophic results in the wrong hands. But will they get there soon enough to secure the information from their enemies?
I just love this series and can’t wait to read more….

XPosed is the first book in the Code Raven series by Lynda Filler. This series centres around the Raven Group, which is a top-secret special ops team- and the series chronicles the action-packed missions they embark on. There is some brilliant action, with suspense, a cross-country/ intercontinental adventure, danger, intrigue, covert ops, life and death, assassins, cyber warfare, Cartels, CIA, and drama.
After meeting all the characters in the Prequel, Code Raven, I was excited to begin the adventures with this book and I am happy to say that Ms. Filler didn’t disappoint. This book has quite a lot packed into a small space, but reading it feels like a much bigger novel (in a good way). I enjoyed getting to know the characters we met in the prequel, a little bit better. This is great team of characters that easily enticed me into their story and kept me avidly following along. I love all the of the Raven Group Team, but Lucy really made an impact in this book and admire her all the more now after reading XPosed.
The book is a fast-paced and is a very quick and easy read. I can’t wait to go on another adventure with Luke and the rest of the team in the next book! Bring on book #2!
Get set for a thrilling ride.
Thank you, Ms. Filler!

I am absolutely loving these books, Im wore out because I feel like I'm working as hard as they are to save the US. Luke Raven is got to be one of my favorite lead characters ever, and actually I'm loving all of them. Im feeling a little bad for Zach and hope that something happens in the next book to make him smile a bit more.
This was fast paced and there were new characters brought in to the mix but the way they are brought in is just awesome. I just can't believe how invested I am in this story and these people after 2 very short books. So much happens and in looking back I am totally impressed with how this author does this and makes me feel like I read a full novel when both so far have been under 100 pages.
I can not wait to dive into the next…
Awesome!!!

What a mind Ms. Filler has as the Raven Group takes on a new ‘associate’ in the form of Samaar, code name Luci. Badass lady all around! In this first adventure the VERY high tech Raven team have just rescued Luci and her 4 YO daughter, Alice, from sure death by a South American Cartel. She, along with several others of the team, are thrust into Paris, to Shanghai and a quick stop in Sedona, AZ. Top secret vehicles on land, sea and in the air. WHOO HOO! What a ride!

This is a action packed novella. With a twist of adventure. This is a no spoiler review.
Lucia and her 4 year old daughter, are on the run. Things are heating up for this ex Mossad assassin. She must get out of Central America and save her daughter. She is good at what she does. But now it's time to keep her daughter safe.
Luke Raven is a billionaire. His objective is to save the USA from cyber warfare with China. He travels from the USA to Paris to Shanghai, China where the evil is about to exchange hands. The tycoon they seek could take the USA down. They must stop this before it's too late.
Lynda Filler has continued this highly intense action novella. This is the second installment of this series. That holds your interest. What's scary is that some things in this book are believable. Her characters are just as believable. So much action for this book. I am looking forward to reading the next installment of the series. This is not a standalone, you must follow the series in order. But you will be happy you did. Keep the story going Lynda Filler!

XPOSED is a great 5 star read that has several POV’s.
There was so much going on my head was spinning. At first it took me a little bit to get everyone’s stories straight. Luci and her daughter are in danger, she has fled their home in search of safety. When Zach finds her he helps her get to safety and than asks her to join him for a mission. Can she keep her daughter safe and complete the mission?
Luke is also dealing with some dangerous people and having Luci work with the Raven group will hopefully help them complete the mission. Seeing Luci again also brings back the attraction they have for each other. We do get some steamy moments between them.
The enemy that the Raven group is up against are dangerous and ruthless people who will stop at nothing to get what they want. I was on the edge of my seat the whole time waiting to see what was coming next. All of the characters added a great element to the story. I can’t wait to read what's coming next. Lynda Filler has done a great job with her writing in this series, a must read if your looking for suspense, danger, mystery and so much more.

Luke is also dealing with some dangerous people and having Luci work with the Raven group will hopefully help them complete the mission. Seeing Luci again also brings back the attraction they have for each other. We do get some steamy moments between them.
The enemy that the Raven group is up against are dangerous and ruthless people who will stop at nothing to get what they want. I was on the edge of my seat the whole time waiting to see what was coming next. All of the characters added a great element to the story. I can’t wait to read what's coming next. Lynda Filler has done a great job with her writing in this series, a must read if your looking for suspense, danger, mystery and so much more.

XPOSED by Lynda Filler is the continuation to Code Raven Prequel that I absolutely fell in love with! This series absolutely kicks butt! There is so much in so few pages and feels as if you have lived through much more! You absolutely need to read the Prequel before continuing to XPOSED as Prequel sets the scene and introduces all the players, well, most of them anyhow!
The writer has given us a fast paced action with great dialogue and a rollercoaster ride with twists and turns that make your stomach fall out! There is a lot of visual imaging in the story so you can close your eyes and picture it all in your head!
XPOSED takes us deeper into the Raven Group and the life of its head – Luke Raven – and his team. The other main lead of the story is an agent Samaar (code name Luci) and I am telling you, she will take us to some interesting directions!
I am looking forward to the next instalment of the series and I hope there will be many to come!

Luke Raven, billionaire, takes on the world with the help of many friends and assassins. A breach in the CIA has exposed the names of all operatives and it’s a race to keep the information out of the hands of the world’s terrorists. Made of an ex mossad agent, ex navy seals and other well trained military soldiers, the adventure begins. Cast of characters is amazing, non stop action from beginning to end and a story line so good you won’t be able to put this book done will have you wanting more.

An action packed book. Lots going on, and pretty darn sexy. I do have to say, I wished Samaar was with Zach as opposed to Luke. Oh well, can't have it all. The mystery, espionage part was well done. Raven is like a human computer, he is simply everywhere. The camaraderie between the team members were good to read. I could literally picture them all together.
Overall a solid 3 stars read for me. I was given a copy in exchange of an honest review.

XPOSED: Code Raven 1
By: Lynda Filler
5 out of 5 stars
The story XPOSED: Code Raven 1 by Lynda Filler is an amazing thriller that I loved reading. It hooked me in from the very beginning and the need to know what happens had me reading the book in one sitting. It is an action/adventure that had me on the edge of my seat wondering what was going to happen next. I loved reading about the characters that work for the Raven’s Group. They are a group who work well together, are competitive, and are loyal to each other. The founder of the group Luke Raven is a man that is highly intelligent and doesn’t spare any expense to get positive results when on a mission. He picks the best to work with him and knows his team well. I also enjoyed reading about the characters of Zach and Luci and learning about their background. The enemy that they are up against is a ruthless, cunning, and vindictive adversary. Sensitive information is in the wrong hands. Will Luke and the Raven’s Group be able to get the data back and secured? This story has the characters in danger and depending on each other for their mission to succeed. This is a well-written page-turner that you will not soon forget. I look forward to reading the next book in this series.

This is a good read. There is action but not the adrenaline rush type of shoot outs. The characters are interesting and there is a good straight plot with one big twist. The ending leaves a lot of room for the next books in this series.

Code Raven: Xposed is book 1 in this series from author Lynda Filler. I would recommend that you read the prequel Code Raven, just to get a better understanding. Once again she has proven how captivating her storylines and characters are and I can't wait to see what else is to come.
Lynda Filler has already proved just by book 1 how great this series is going to be. Xposed was thrilling, action-paced and full of twists and turns that left you wondering what was going to happen next and left you wanting more.
The characters in which Lynda has created are relatable, real and you can't help but want to find out more. I'm glad we got more of Luke and Zach, but that we was given a taste into Luci’s story.
This is a brilliant captivating story that is mentally visual in all aspects of the story. Being a quick read you never feel as though the story is rushed you get just the right amount!

Xposed is part of the Code Raven series by Lynda FIller. It is full of action and many twists and turns that keeps you reading. I definitely recommend reading Code Raven: Prequel. It will help you understand Luke Raven and the other characters in the series. There is a lot going on from Luke Raven being in the middle of a cyber war and Zach who is part of Raven's group doing a rescue in Mexico. Luci, who was rescued in Mexico is helpful to Luke with all her skills she has learned. But what will happen between the two? Do they have chemistry?
Another great book by Lynda Filler. Her writing is descriptive and you feel like you are traveling along with the characters. The characters are well developed and very believable. I am really looking forward to reading the next book in the Code Raven series.

Lynda Filler is a mastermind. Her Code Raven series is one for the books. Even though this is Exposed: Code Raven is the first book, I recommend Code Raven as it is a prequel. It is in the prequel were the characters were introduced and given some back-ground information. Code Raven is a high-level action with passion, power, and greed wrapped into one book. I love the feeling of danger from the comfort of my chair. Filler takes you on a roller coaster ride. The scenery is beautiful go from China to USA to Paris. If you like action and adventure then you will love the Code: Raven series.

Rated 5 stars
This is my second book by this author. The story is fast moving and entertaining. There is a lot of action and storytelling packed into this short book! The characters are all so cool. I love the idea of the super secret Raven Group. It was nice getting to meet the rest of the group as well as some more in-depth insight into Luci‘s life. Everyone seems to have quite the background. Poor Zach! I thought he was going to get his girl. I enjoyed all the camaraderie between these characters. I see the next book is avail soon. I am curious about the next story.

This is part of the Code Raven series. I enjoyed this book just as much as the first one I read. I enjoy how this story is so full of action and the Raven's Group, not sure what to say about them but love them. This story is full of twists and turns that left me sitting on the edge of my seat. What will happen when Luke enlists the help of Luci who by the way was rescued by Luke. These are relatable characters that I also connected with. I highly recommend this book.

After reading Xposed I feel I made the right decision in reading the prequel Code Raven ...it’s a quick read and I feel it really sets the stage with the characters and explains how/why the organization was established and what it’s about.
This book is filled with mystery, action, steamy scenes, twist and turns that will keep you on the edge. The book is so descriptive you will feel like you are being taken along on the ride of your life and traveling through some amazing places. I love when you can feel and see the scenes play out as you read the words...like you are living the story.
I can’t wait to read Abducted and see where the journey continues. I know it will be a heart pounding story that will have me more obsessed with this organization.

Its crazy how a word can have so many meanings just by putting it in different context. Luci is in hiding and those after her are coming soon. Being on the run with a toddler is frightening. I was a little confused with all the jumping around the author did. There are a lot of characters and many side stories. This story has a lot of action and danger. Luci finds herself in so much danger I would be afraid to come out the house. She has a very tough girl mentality but shows a soft spot for a few people. I couldn’t imagine putting my life in danger the way they do. Overall it was interesting to read.

Another exciting read from Lynda Filler – for such short stories this author certainly knows how to pack them full of action from the very first word. After reading the prequel to this book I was really looking forward to carrying on and finding out more about the characters. I really enjoyed reading about Luke in Code Raven so I was couldn’t wait to see how his story would continue. We are also introduced to Luci in this story too and I really liked and admired her as a character. I think the author does an amazing job with the characters development, I really do feel like I know them. Along with the great characters is some amazing world-building too, the authors descriptions of all the different settings definitely helped me visualise what I was reading.
I am really looking forward to the next book in the series!

XPosed by Lynda Filler follows the journey of the recluse yet billionaire and impressively smart Luke Raven.
Raven has set it in to his mind to go after the person / individual responsible for murdering his wife and daughter. He has made it his whole mission in life to save the United States as well as seek revenge for the wrongs that were done to him.
XPosed is full of suspense and action as certain key players run and hide for their lives in order to assist Raven in his mission. I absolutely loved the relationships that those individuals develop. The commitment and honor that they show to save their mission and to see it through. I definitely consider this a 4 Star Book!
