This is a rollercoaster none stop from start to finish

This story has it all,the end of the world and maybe a new beginning, starts with a virus that infected systems throughout the world. The steps taken to prevent further destruction a nuclear warhead is programmed to detonate just about where Sam and his family are flying in a helicopter an emergency landing is needed in the most perilous place, that's just the beginning and it doesn't stop there. A must read excitement throughout and some move for thought

Great read

I have read all of the Sam Reilly books so far and have loved every one of them. They all keep you enthralled until the end as you never know what is going to happen next. I like the way the author revolves the story around actual facts, and therefore I have learned about a lot of facts I never knew before.

Another unbelievable story

I have enjoyed this series and I guess I will read the next one, but it is time for it to end and create new characters to write about that are more realistic.

A must read for Sam and Tom fans!

I have been struggling for something to read since the last Sam Reilly book. This was perfect. I couldn’t put it down. Loved it!!!

a tale of nuclear Armageddon and what it might look like. The team is split up and all fight for our lives.
