'The Ajax File is a gripping, fast-paced thriller that kept me hooked throughout - I really found it hard to put down as I just needed to know what was going to happen next! The book blends suspense, intrigue, and complex characters, building tension and developing a story that feels both grounded and edge-of-your-seat exciting.

The plot centres around an intelligent and resourceful protagonist, Miles, whose normal commute into work turns his world upside down, causing him to question everything he thought he knew about himself and his family. His life now in danger, he needs to find out the truth fast as he is being relentlessly hunted by dangerous killers. The pursuit of the answers to his questions is filled with dark secrets and leads to a series of unexpected twists, drawing the reader into a world where danger lurks at every turn. The pace of the story is great, and there’s never a dull moment!

I also really enjoyed the development of the characters within the story. Each character is multi-dimensional, each with their own motivations and struggles, which adds a layer of depth to the plot. D S Sam Lennox is great and I really enjoyed learning more about her as the story progressed. The action scenes are really well executed, the attention to detail in the writing shows good background knowledge and the dialogue is both witty and authentic.

Overall, The Ajax File is really worth a read - I could easily see this being adapted into a film/TV series as the story really is captivating and I could not put it down. It's full of plot twists and turns right until the end - highly recommended!'
