Sam Pope #12
The Fighter
FIGHT FOR YOUR LIFE...
Over three years ago, Amara Singh made the decision to step away from her life as a detective and join 'Directive One', a covert government team that worked off the grid for the good of the nation. As her career is blossoming, she soon stumbles across the name Vladimir Balikov and his links to a potential nuclear attack.
Balikov is a ghost. A man of unspeakable wealth but no digital footprint. All they have is an annual visit to Budapest, where he hosts an underground fighting tournament, where his wealthy supporters pit desperate criminals against each other in a fight to the death. With her director unwilling to put one of the team into the tournament, Singh can only think of one potential fighter...
Sam Pope.
But to get to the devil's front door, Sam must walk through hell itself, by infiltrating a Serbian war prison and fighting his way to notoriety. And that fight soon becomes a fight for not just his own survival.
THE FIGHTER is the twelfth entry in this blockbuster, international best-selling series that will thrill fans of Lee Child, Vince Flynn, Mark Dawson and Chris Ryan.

Good book. Its nice to see that Sam and Amara have come to terms with each others' true feelings and moved on. And now Amara and her team would have their own series, just like Townsend. However, I hope that the next Sam Pope book comes out soon. I am eager to see what Sam would do once he returns to England with information on some powerful people who allied themselves with Balikov, who has been defeated. I hope he goes against that admiral who fired Commissioner Brian next. I really didn't like that guy's attitude. I also hope we will be able to see Ruth Ashton and Adrian Pearce soon. The last time we saw them, Ruth was an ex-cop with a need for vengeance against Pope and Adrian was pissed off at Sam for getting him partially involved in his war with Dana Kovalenko. There's also that female assassin who escaped after Ducard's defeat. Yep, there are a lot of unresolved issues that Sam needs to deal with.

Wanted - A Fighter.
Sam Pope was the most wanted man in England. Amara Singh was a fast rising Operative working for an ‘Off the Books’ government agency. After a briefing on the latest mission she had been assigned to she knew the only way it had a chance at success was to find a fighter. Amara knew exactly who she needed. Will Sam Pope agree to be The Fighter? Agree to be incarcerated in one of the most terrifying prisons in Siberia. Every day could end with Sam losing his fight for survival, the mission spiralling out of control. Will his focus remain on the reason this mission is worth fighting for?

Five Stars
I have read all of the Sam Pope books in order and have never been disappointed. This was another great read and it was lovely to see the reappearance of a few familiar faces. As usual, the action was non stop with lots of twists and turns. I will now patiently wait for the next book in the series. Dear Mr Enright, keep up the good work, and from me another well deserved 5 stars ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

Feeling betrayed. truly fighting for his life.
One mission after another, recuperating, Sam was found again by Directive One and they persuaded him to help bring down a Russian, a very nasty Russian who was building a nuclear bomb, using guilt tactics to get him to join the mission and more or less told he was expendable which was more hurtful than he let on, especially as the person asking was supposed to love him. Again another thrilling book.

Yet another excellent story
I have read and enjoyed all the Sam Pope books. Robert Enright never fails to deliver a well written, exciting story. This is no exception. In fact, it is even better. I was pleased to read more of Amira Singh's journey.

Not his best - disappointed
The book did not captivate me as previous have, it's a race to throw down some unbelievable plot lines and characters and get to the main story - unbreakable hero goes into he'll hold to bring down tyrant child molester.

Wow read in 2 goes .
Could not put it down. As good as the rest of the series. The story was riveting you wanted Sam to come through and at the end you wanted to know what next I hope there will be one. Brilliant.

Brutal
If you have followed Sam Pope, very little of the content will surprise you. Brilliantly constructed, great plot, European travel and a sinister Russian plotting to take over the world. The last Pope novel? One hopes not.

Thank you Robert Enright
Another great book in this series. I’m excited too that there are a couple of books coming up based on other popular characters who have cropped up during Sam Pope’s fight for good. Keep writing and I will keep buying/ reading it.

The biggest fight you will have is not putting this down
Sam Pope is back for book 12 and the action has been ramped up to the max. This was also the book I had been waiting for, with the return of a character from Sam's past. Rolll on book 13.

I never, ever give anything top marks but If I could, I would give the Sam Pope books 4.9/5. Robert Enright and Sam Pope, remind me of Lee Childs Jack Reached series, and that is the biggest compliment I could give any writer

A great fight to the end
Another great read! As a team how could they miss. But, as usual they had an opponent that wouldn't give up. This took some great jostling of previous people throughout the stories to get involved to bring bring it to closure. They did in a great finish.

Great Series
Sad to see the end of the Sam Pope series. If you're for a great read start at the beginning and be prepared for a rollercoaster ride.

Entertainingly
Not bad actually. Relatively well choreographed fight scenes quite brutish at times but the story however unlikely flowed along nicely

Never one to give up.
As ever, Sam Pope does the right thing at some considerable, personal cost. Is the man really human? It's a good job he's who he is.
