Format:Paperback
David Morrel specialises in one-man adventures. And this is a special adventure! The reader can relate to the ethical and moral issues the charachter undergoes, and can even feel his pain when he comes to the decision that in order to save his own life he must once again pick up the gun.
This book is GRIPPING!

Format:Mass Market Paperback
This book is one of Morrell's finest, along with THE FIFTH PROFESSION and EXTREME DENIAL. It moves right from the start and doesn't let you go. Morrell's writing is fast-paced and intense. a fantastic thriller.
Format:Kindle Edition
This book drags me along like a little girl drags a rag doll down the street. The doll ain't getting away. Sometimes the girl shakes the doll or pulls it through the mud. Maybe a dog tries to wrench it away from her, but she wins the tug of war. Likewise, this book pulls me through a rocky adventure. I'm happy to be dragged along.
If you crave adventure stories, you might also try The Golden Catch, a thriller/adventure novel where the action unfolds in the stormy Aleutian Islands.

It has aged quite badly when you consider modern technology but this is an outstanding thriller with an excellent storyline that speeds along. Highly recommended.
