"Former SAS soldier David Shelley was part of the most covert operations team in the special forces. Now settling down to civilian life in London, he has plans for a safer and more stable existence. But the shocking death of a young woman Shelley once helped protect puts those plans on hold. The police rule the death a suicide but the grieving parents can't accept their beloved Emma would take her own life. They need to find out what really happened, and they turn to their former bodyguard, Shelley, for help. When they discover that Emma had fallen into a dark and seedy world of drugs and online pornography, the father demands retribution. But his desire for revenge will make enemies of people that even Shelley may not be able to protect them from, and take them into a war from which there may be no escape"--… (mehr)

Suspense

This one was pretty bad, with lots of sudden saves and near misses that weren't believable and without any foreshadowing. The general plotline and some of the characters were all that saved it from a 1-star from me. ( )

Ugh. This story was all over the place with silly story lines. It felt like the first release of an author, not one with several best selling series. The first quarter was Shelley insisting he work for the Drakes and then refusing to work for them once they agreed. Three identical jokes that Russians aren't Chechens. Patterson should give the check back to his publisher and have his name removed from the book. ( )

This was alright, there's more meat to it than your average double spaced, ten million chapters Patterson novel, yet the storage itself was quite far fetched and unrealistic I felt.

A ex-SAS bodyguard is called by an ex-client moments before she kills herself, he's then roped into a revenge mission that goes south and a run in with Chechen Mafia ensues. Said run in contains various double crosses, some hostage trades and general 'twists' that don't really have all that much impact on the reader.

It's entertaining, but it wasn't good, much like a B grade movie. ( )

Awful. The novel started strong with a mysterious divide, but the rest of the book was a bunch of Russian Mafia and former Special Forces fighting it out, backstabbing and double crossing trying to exact revenge. Horrible, boring-don’t waste your time.
