AT MIDNIGHT SHE TRIED TO END HER OWN LIFE AT TEN MINUTES PAST, SHE FOUND THE BODY
The most wanted man in Britain floats alone in the ocean. Just moments from death, a young woman by the name of Rosselin Claes rescues him. He can’t remember the events that led up to the moment he was found, and he is in dire need of help. The kindness of a stranger pulls him back from the void. Yet as he rests, the curse of James Stone strikes again. Stone can’t remember a thing, and the police are moving in close, but there is one thing he is certain of: He has a debt to pay. Aftermath is the prequel to No More Shadows, and sees Stone on the run in the city of Bruges. He’s tired, hurt, and plagued by the unwanted company of the Wolf. With the police close on his tail, Stone knows it’s only a matter of time before someone puts the pieces of the puzzle together, and he once more becomes the target of every law enforcement agency in the country. But for now he can do little else but follow his own rule. Adapt and React. Jack Reacher, John Milton & Carl Logan step aside, because James Stone is here to cause some damage.
This was a fast paced action thriller that kinda introduces the main character to a new series. Unfortunately, it never really describes the man or much of his background or even why he is supposedly the most wanted man in the United Kingdom. That was left hanging like a carrot. The action scenes are well choreographed and believable. The first person style of writing is good and the editing is clean. This is a stand-alone story and I look forward to reading more in this series.
I understand that Aftermath is the prequel to No More Shadows. A fast pace well written book. Imagine the scene the woman wants to commit suicide and saves a drowning man. More information about James Stone or back ground would be excellent, but otherwise a very interesting book. I will definitely be reading the next books in the series and recommending an author unknown to me to my friends.
Aftermath is the prequel novella to No More Shadows. It's well written, moved along at a fast pace and caught my interest from the start. James Stone is an intriguing character and I can't wait to read the next book to find out what his story is. Good start to the series.
For those who want to know: This one has violence.
James Stone is fished, unconscious, out of the sea by a prostitute who was about o commit suicide. While he is asleep, she is beaten to death. He hunts and finds the killer, all the while talking to the imaginary Wolf.
Aftermath is a brief prequel to No More Shaddows by Robert Clark and is an interesting and often violent read.It describes the main character James Stone as Britain’s most wanted criminal,but doesn’t go into any datail of James’s past and why he became Britain’s most wanted but perhaps more will be revealed in the next full length.Although a short read I would be be tempted to read the next in the series.
