About the author
Jane Jago
91 books171 followersI live in the beautiful west country with my big, silly dog and my big sensible husband.
I spent the first half of my working life cooking and the second half editing other people's manuscripts.
At last I have time to write down the stories that have been disturbing my sleep for as long as I can remember.
Writing my first title took two years, because the characters kept doing unexpected things. I've since learned that they are always going to break out of the mould. So I just sit back and enjoy the ride.

Loyalty, romance and family
The Cracksman Code is tale of family in all its forms. It meanders between action and romance, winds in descriptive detail that places you firmly in the crowded, loving atmosphere of this big, noisy Cracksman crew as they navigate life in their own unique way.
"They're real. In an increasingly plastic world they are as refreshing as a swim in a cold Scottish loch."
Jago also steers plenty of other subtle messages towards the reader through her tale: racism, class, relationships and parenting all get an airing. Her writing style is relaxed and her dialogue rolls along with the plot.

Speechless
So many feels in a fast-paced international shoot-em-up genre-bending masterpiece.
Not for the Jack Reacher crowd, but if David Baldacci’s sensitivities, or even Robert Crais’ (think “Suspect”) appeal, this homage to happily ever after with gunplay, mayhem and good triumphant over evil deeds should absolutely delight.
