Even in its genre, this is a particularly poorly written book. Normally I read such books during travel, and don't really care its worth less than toilet paper. This time it ended up on my freshly bought E-reader, as part of a welcome package. It was the first book I tried, and it made me hate the new thing.. only exceptionally bad books are able to do that. Luckily the next book made me enjoy it again.

Another mostly well-written action thriller from McNab. A little thin on story in this one - running out of ideas perhaps? - but the usual elements of his stories were all there. I like the way he kind of summarises things and how everybody ends up right at the end. It worked well in this book in particular, because there had been a couple of loose ends that I had forgotten all about. the bizarre thing was though, the first part of the book was very well writte, very tense and edgy, and the last More...

A good action romp with a simple enough plot. Great for those times when you want to take a break from something complex.

The final Nick Stone episode (for now) and one of the best, reminded me of the film 3 kings at the start. The book was fast paced and tense, good ending and glad that once the finale happened there was a few pages to finish off the story which I have found frustrating with the Nick Stone series in the past. Overall a very enjoyable read and hopefully not the last we will hear of Nick Stone.

Slower paced than all the other McNab books I've read. Better towards the end but not enough going on to really engage.

Not Andy's best book. Nick Drake seemed a little one-dimensional. Perhaps it was his missing family or love interest. Whatever it was this reader was not too concerned as to the outcome of the plot.

Certainly not short of twists and turns in the plot!
