Customer Reviews

Spy thriller/twister/turner

You never heard of the country. You never heard of the people. You never heard of the American who takes an assignment in the country you never heard of. But about 4 chapters in, you start caring and wondering and expecting and guessing. And you'll be wrong. There are more twists and turns in this book then San Francisco's famous Lombard Street. And just when you think you've got it figured out, figure again. The only thing that helps you is that it ends...with another twist...and perhaps a little too soon. Whomever this guy Terrence Lynch is...he should write another book. And I'll buy it.

A good old-fashioned spy thriller

This is a fast-paced novel that keeps you on the edge of your seat chapter after chapter. It has everything you look for in an exciting cloak and dagger story: A hero that is in constant danger while attempting to serve his country in a near-impossible foreign assignment; sinister forces that are intent on stopping the hero, killing him if necessary; pulse-pounding suspense created by a highly critical battle against the clock with time running out; a series of unexpected developments that threaten to abort the hero's efforts to successfully complete his assignment. As a bonus, there is an interesting twist in the ending that gives the reader something to wonder about and draw his/her own conclusions.
