Diluvian
DCI Jack Robson has finally achieved some sort of normality in his life. At least, normal by his standards…
But the escape of a high-profile prisoner turns up surprising links to Robson and his family, placing them in the crosshairs of corruption.
Suddenly, Robson no longer knows who to trust.
His pursuit of the escapee becomes enmeshed with a separate, highly secret investigation; one which propels Robson into a world of global conspiracies and unexpected reunions.
Quickly, the enquiry becomes a mission: a test of Robson’s resolve, both emotionally and professionally.
As the boundaries between work and personal life become increasingly blurred, he finds himself forced into choices and actions that are complex, terrifying, and–ultimately–deadly …

Arcam was the first book in this series, and it became one of my top reads of 2018. I must admit that it did make me wary when I came to read the next book in the series. The author, Jason Minick, has not disappointed. The core characters soon sprang back to life for me with just as many, if not more, heart in my mouth moments.
When a high profile killer is being transported, it soon becomes obvious that no amount of specialised training can prepare his guards for what is to go down. Not only is this blast from the past stepping back onto the streets, but he is also determined to punish the man that put him behind bars and ruin him too. DCI Jack Robson will not only face losing his career and reputation but something much more precious.
Diluvian is an all-action, adrenaline-fuelled story, with plenty of car chases and near misses. So many times carrots are dangled, as I thought the odds in the story would swing in another direction, only to be left breathless. There are some pretty gutsy characters in this story. One, in particular, had learned from the best and was never going to give up and let fate take its course.
Now this book, like I said, is an all-action read, but the last half a dozen chapters take this to another level. The rule book is out of the window as lines have to be crossed. Lives lost and the finale faced. Could this be the end! You will have to wait and see.
