Thoughts

The third book in the Atlee Pine series, and if we’re being honest, this one was a bit of a dip in form - it felt like there was the big mystery and we’re getting a bit closer but it’s just not happening quickly enough. I did quite enjoy Puller making a guest appearance and it was shocking when he got injured in the line of duty, but all’s well that ends well. Anyway, it’s an okay thriller but really feel like we’re just reading this one to get to the next one where everything will be revealed.

Rating: 3 / 5
