If you thought the first one was great, this one surpasses it by a metric mile. The assassinations are what set this book on top. Because of them, the storyline has more depth and is more intricate. Five stars on Goodreads means it's amazing, and this book is more then that. The action is ever so present, and never, not at one point, does it let up. The only downside to this series is the wait for the next book(s).

Excellent Thriller
A thriller with many twists and turns. The involvement of the islanders and their "take no prisoners" mind set makes the action much more intense. Looking forward to the next book.

Hard to put down
Hard to put it down because there was always something pending. Lots of characters, some with names that were difficult to remember.

This is a great book too, but I didn't like it as much as kidnap. I liked the whole book but the ending was the best part. did not see it coming. I read the whole book In one day; I just could not put it down! Love this these books.

Excellent
When I started reading this series they are very reminiscent of The Hardy Boys books of long ago. Excellently written and will keep you reading to the very end. I highly recommend this series for younger readers as well as older ones. Enjoy.

This sequel keeps the action going full steam with even more twists to the plot. These kids persevere against all odds to save their families...and the world! Great young adult series with plenty of enjoyment for older readers too!

PROOF THE SAME IS GOOD
Same characters and action that is. This second in a series continues the trials and tribulations for the Donald Kennedy family. More intrigue. More of nearly unbelievably smart youngsters. And more world-hopping advevture. You gotta read this book.

Fantastic
This book definitely didn't let me me down and I am very happy that I took the time to read it. The reason for 4 stars was the distracting grammatical errors.

Assassin is the sequel to Kidnap in The Billionaire series written by author Murray McDonald. Excellent second story, why not a third?

McDonald does it again
Great book. Action from start to finish with an unexpected twist at the end. Recommend to anyone who likes to read political/action thrillers.
