"Cracking, self-contained adventure that is informative and entertaining throughout. A rollercoaster ride towards doom you might think, but Gregory gives her characters a way out."
"Cornwell knows how to write an engaging yarn and surrounds his heroes with a wonderfully quirky range of supporting characters. Interesting plot and classic against-the-clock ending holds the reader."
"Staid by today's standards, but there's no getting away from the epic sweep of Winston Graham's well-known saga. Famously televised in the 1970s and originator of a string of sequels."
