London has been bombed for the second time in two years, but this time the enemy is a lot closer to home. MI6 agent Paul Aston is sent to investigate, but nothing could have prepared him for the scenes of horror and devastation. The government blames MI6 for the catastrophe while MI6 blames the government, but the truth behind what the media are calling 18/8 is more chilling than anyone could have imagined. Slowly Aston tears away the layers of corruption, betrayal, and murder to reveal the culprit, someone with a deep seething hatred of MI6 who will stop at nothing until his vengeance is satisfied.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent for a saga begining,

This review is from: The Mentor (Paperback)
I enjoyed a lot this book. The main character is very interesting because combine a sharp mind and a lot of "regular people everyday issues" as well. I think the main character is still far beyond a "James Bond" (and it is a good thing!), but I think he will evolve in the incoming books but maintaining a credible and human side. The romantic situation was well managed and gives room to continue better in the future, not playing all the cards in this first book.(good thing too!)
Overall: Good pace, very human and credible characters, excellent additional surprises at the end and very addictive. Excellent start for this new author.

Booze and brains,

This review is from: The Mentor (Paperback)
Very cleverly written . Surprise by the turn of the tale in the middle of the story. Didn't quite connect the why of the (t)reason to the sexual link.
It's not because you drink a lot that your brain goes to mush seems to be the author's message.....self defense ??
