Action. action, action. A great read to keep you on the edge of your seat. Non-stop thriller from cover to cover. Well written and the research done by the author is obvious. Kudos.

I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

Great story with action and suspense from the beginning to the end. I also enjoyed the Code Of War series.
