More About the Author

Andrew Britton was born in Peterborough, England, in 1981. He spent his formative years in the UK and Camlough, County Armagh Ireland, a small village which is home to most of the family on his mother's side. In 1988, his family immigrated to the United States, taking up residence in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Just before his junior year of high school, Britton moved to Raleigh, North Carolina, where he currently resides.

Britton graduated from Leesville Road High School in 1999 and immediately joined the U.S. Army. He served as a combat engineer for three years. During that time, he was assigned to the 1st Engineer Battalion at Fort Riley, Kansas. In the summer of 2001, he received orders for Korea, where he served with the 2ID, the famed 2nd Infantry Division. He was honorably discharged as a specialist in 2002.

Less than two months after separating from the armed forces, Britton began taking classes at Wake Technical Community College, transferring to the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in the fall of 2004. As an undergraduate at UNC, Britton studied economics and psychology. His education has been on hiatus for the past year, though he intends to return to school as soon as his schedule allows.

Apart from writing, Britton enjoys reading, traveling, and the occasional beer at the local bar.

This review is from: Heart of Betrayal (Paperback)

Those of you in the US, just be aware that the title in the UK is

"Heart of Betrayal". Here in the US, "The American". Was disappointed as I thought I was getting the fourth book of his series. Price was right, but I guess I should have read the review first before ordering. Guess I'll just wait and order it from my local library.

This review is from: Heart of Betrayal (Paperback)

The heart of Betrayal " The American" was exciting from start to finish.

I could not put it aside and I did go back and read it a 2nd time. so as I was set up for reading the sequel "The Assassin" which again just blew me away. Andrew truly has a great knack for keeping you glued from page to page. very fast paced. very exciting. he is truly a star.It is edge of your seat reading.What all good thriller readers seek in a good book.

I highly recommend it and the follow up The Asassin and The Invisible.
