[Avarill · Rating 4 out of 5]

Espionage, MIR, undercover agents, & war history, I thoroughly enjoyed the book. Having always been an avid reader of Sherlock Holmes, it was enjoyable to find similar tension. Be not mistaken, Sherlock Holmes will always top all other writers in my world of writers. I'll more than likely look forward to reading another book by Gordon Stevens.

I found it on our bookshelves, and couldn't remember if I'd read it, so picked it up and realised that I had, but had forgotten most of the plot, so it was like reading it afresh. The blurb and the beginning show more promise than the book actually delivers, and it ends in a rather humdrum "shoot-em-up" manner.

Review later. I quite enjoyed this.
