Rick Fuller #7
Made to Be Broken
Rick Fuller is a broken man. For over a year, he has spent his waking hours drinking in the seedy bars of Pattaya, tortured by guilt and tormented by what might have been.
That is until the beautiful and enigmatic MI6 agent, Harriet Casey walks into the Cha Cha Saloon with a picture of him on her phone, a computer program stolen from Russian gangsters and a plane ticket back to Manchester, where his old friend and ally Des Cogan is waiting for him.
Intrigue, cross and double cross, push Rick and his new team deeper than ever before into the dangerous world of political espionage. As the bullets fly and the body count rises, time is running out for them to return the mysterious program back into the right hands.
But just who’s hands are they?

Oh what can I say about Rick and Des? These guys really do the business and they are brilliant to read, funny stylish and brutal in the same breathe. No spoilers, but I think Robert has just lined up the new generation!!!!

loved it just like previous ones, with reservations on length and ending. Bit of an abrupt end, and seemed shorter than the other books. This one left me feeling that I had missed something. Still I'd recommend it to anyone reading them in order, if nothing else to keep up to date on the characters progress

Great Book
Thoroughly enjoy this author, but to be confused with another by the same name though.
Looking forward to the next one as I thought it was over at the end of the last book but it appears Robo has successfully revitalised the series for which in most grateful.

Enjoyable.
A pleasant read, the mix of old and new characters being blended together, with suitable references to the “history,” of the past books. Well written, maintaining and building the interest, to the final as expected outcome!

Robert White has done it again.
The Rick Fuller series just keeps getting better in my opinion.
As fast paced as always and difficult to put down once you start.
If you have read the others In the series this won’t disappoint. If you haven’t where have you been!

Another triumph.
I was worried how the saga would continue from the three character narrative of the previous books, but this is just as good. As usual his new characters blend seamlessly into the storyline as if they had been there all the time. A thoroughly gripping read.

Another gripping Rick Fuller tale.
Good story reuniting the team,and ending the story with hints of what's coming in the next. Catching. Infectious. My kind of escapism.

Rick fuller thriller
Another hit , nice to see fuller back and the story continue with a new crew forming, another page turner but maybe not as strong a storyline.

Cracking
Love the Fuller books, this one no exception. New Characters just blend in perfectly. Next one will be interesting.
How will Rick deal with the release of you know who.

Brilliant
Book 7 in this series, is as brilliant as 1-6 were!
The fluidity of the character's dynamic is celebrated, throughout the series so far.
Looking forward to book 8!
