Excellent!

[Joan · Rating 4 out of 5]

'Reckoning' a perfect name for a gripping, fast moving thriller. A conspiracy of greedy amoral men, the brain of an evil elderly man who is paid to orchestrate there dreams. They hope for an empire that spans the world and he hopes for a chance to get is revenge before he retires. Gallagher, a retired FBI agent who retired under a cloud. A job that went wrong and took the lives of 2 of his men. His guilt never leaves and he returns to Ireland to try and build a bridge to his estranged daughter. Emma whose ambition blinded her to the fact she was being groomed and manipulated, a puppet to the conspiracy. No one wants to listen to Gallagher, they treat him as a damaged fool and won't heed his warnings.
