| An exciting tale bearing similarities to Forsyth’s first book. It isn’t quite as good, but that says more about the brilliance of The Day of the Jackal than any major flaw in this particular narrative. | |

| Judd uses an interesting literary device to tell the story, but I’m not sure it best serves the plot. The pace was plodding throughout and the narrative left me indifferent. | |

| A brilliantly written and well plotted narrative. The characters will stay with me - I just wish the ending was less ambiguous… | |
