Customer Reviews

The Cotton Malone series continues.

This is the next in the series of thrillers by Steve Barry about his hero Cotton Malone. Cotton is a retired government agent from the Justice Department. He now owns a bookstore in Denmark. However, he just happened to be in a convenient location for a current project. The book is not a simple agent story. The project is tied to the Lockerbie Bomber, and pressure not to extradite. To do this, we must dive into some English history (Steve Berry stretches the history). This is mixed with Cotton’s previous personal life. It can get convoluted at times. If you like well-rounded agents and speculative history, this is the book for you.
