Received a complimentary copy. No one loves a good shoot-em-up-bang bang more than me. Alex King is a great spy and if you love spy novels you should read these. More action oriented than James Bond if you can imagine that.

A Good Read
Always a pleasure to read a new Alex King story. A short read, though it took me a couple of days. Fast moving as it tells of a past job that was left incomplete.
