March 28, 2020Another great story
Also more than one plot . Max Doyle is reunited with his daughter Sally , living in NYC, and working for Phoenix Company . The bad guys from book 1 are plotting more disasters . A couple of people are killed with nerve poison . Multiple bombs at a museum, kidnappings . Mr. Carson writes pretty good American for a Scot, however you can see his roots in phrases and words.

Very confusing!
This an author I like very much, but this novel he must have been having a nightmare to think that his characters needed have nicknames to a point where I could not distinguish who was who.I trust that my comments will not prevent John Carson from writing more of.his very entertaining novels.

Max Doyle
A little bit too Rambo for my liking, but if you skip the gory bits, then a fun read. I'll probably read the next one at some point
