Like other books published since William Johnstone's death this is as good as ever: I only wish the heirs of Ralph Compton had been as careful in selecting someone to complete/prepare his outlines for publishing. the ones now being published in his name are not a patch on his own work. No-one who has been put off by those need fear buying the new William Johnstone books as these are true to his style and quality.

the style, the shallow characterizations, even the way characters from previous books interact, all differ from the earlier books in the series. might have been barely passable as a story if the previous books hadn't given me certain expectations, but the writing felt amateurish.

I love all the Johnstone books. The only thing I have a problem with is that in books further down the line, there are lead ins in the story that come from the other books, that I may not have read, too much info means I may not want to read that book.

I can't review or really rate this book as it was a gift so I don't know anything about it.
