Excellent first novel full of suspense, humor, twists & turns and even some romance. This is the story how a young man becomes someone capable of working for a secret government agency and killing upon demand. He starts out as a young man by taking revenge on those who have hurt people he cares about and learns how to survive in the most difficult of circumstances and protect himself. He is hired by a government agency that is so secret that is doesn't exist to the regular world and finds himself changing identities, losing girlfriends, and even attending his own funeral. There is a lot packed into this spy thriller!
Not for everyone, and I'm not sure what it says about me, to really enjoy a book from the perspective of a psychopath killer who starts killing from a young age. Haha, I admit I liked it.
This book started out pretty interesting. I found it unbelievable, but at least entertaining. As Robert started his training with the agency I began to get bored. There were too many unnecessary details that took away from the story, and a lot of typos. It wasn't a bad story, and it had a lot of potential but it could have definitely stood an outside editor.
While this book could have used an editor because of many typing errors, It did intrigue me. At times, the descriptions were a bit too long; yet, it did show clearly how someone can become a cold-blooded killer. Scary to see inside the mind of a killer!
Disclaimer: I did receive this book for free from a Goodreads Giveaway, yet all the thoughts in this review are my own.
I guess I should list my own book since I have read it many times during the editing process. This is the first novel I have finished and I have self published it on Createspace.com and Amazon kindle.
