4.0

A satisfying thriller, which leaves itself open to a sequel

Squandered an exciting start to embrace cliché, repetitive dialogue, and illogical plotting. Good action thrillers are about the pacing, but that doesn't mean that other elements can't detract, especially when executed so amateurishly.

Interesting characters, lots of action, a page turner. The main character, Sam Capra, is a family man whose 7-months pregnant wife vanishes and Sam is accused of being a traitor. First in a trilogy.

It was a little slow for me in the beginning while developing the character but half way in became fast paced and I could hardly put it down

I have been reading this series backwards for some reason. I have really enjoyed them. I don't write to much in my reviews because I do not want to give the story away. In this book Sam has to come to grips with the fact that his wife is a traitor.

I love the premise of this series of books but for whatever reason it takes me a long time to get through them. Fast at times slow at most other times. Will continue to read them however!

1st in a series, I want to read the entire series
dark mysterious tense fast-paced

Reminded me a lot of Casino Royale (the movie, not the short story). If you like spy action movies you'll like this book.
