No Entry is the authors's second in a series, but can be read as a standalone. The protagonist, Barry Mackay is determined to solve the mystery surrounding animal trafficking. He stumbles into the middle of international crime, kidnapping and the prostitution of young women. And while in the thick of all of that, several scientists are being murdered? Can Mackay possibly figure it all out? Does it tie together? The action is quick and relentless, paced in such a way as to amp up the tension. Although I enjoyed the unique plot-lines, I did feel as though there was a bit too much going on. I prefer slightly less plot and more character development so I know that is an odd personal preference.

I loved the two stories that Barry Mackay was pursuing. The killing of scientists was close to home and so realistic, while the African and European adventures were exciting as he hunted down the traffickers. The novel flowed well and put me right in the believable plot.
