With a sharp eye for detail, a good story-line and some tense, witty and hot interaction between the characters in this book, the author had had me turning the pages, intrigued as to what was going to happen next. Overall a great read and looking forward to the next instalment.

Loved this! Layers of the story line kept the reader engaged from the get go. Lots of action to keep you interested and enough suspense to keep you guessing. The author had obviously done his research and the use of known Australian cities and suburbs kept it real for the reader. The fact that he left it open for a sequel was much appreciated because I never wanted the book to end! Highly recommended! Congratulations to this new and evolving Australian author.

Suspenseful tale of international crime and politics. Grounded in current realities, with tense interpersonal relationships and well developed dialogue. Characters and situations leave you ready for a sequel.
