"First and Only" by Peter Flannery

First and Only: A Psychological Thriller by Peter Flannery

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


It seems that this is Mr Flannery’s first novel but if it is anything to go by, I hope it’s not his only one.
It grips from the start and is an exploration into two minds, one that of a true psychic and the torment that he suffers as a result, and that of his persecutor, the devil on earth from whom our hero flees and yet must one day confront. To assist this he gains the protection of a very sceptical former SAS soldier but their route as they grow closer together takes them to the very top of power in both Britain and the USA. After all, a true psychic would be a huge military asset! But dealing with a psychic is something they had no experience of, and the struggle continues as the day of reckoning with his pursuer draws inevitably and relentlessly closer.
A real page turner, and possibly already to be a film.
