Favorite Review

Profanity	Violence	Sexual Content

Very little profanity,	Not overly descriptive, but shooting and explosions	Almost none, although there is a sensual moment or two

Characterization	Plot	Overall Rating

Characters are well-rounded and believable	You don't know what is coming next. Very enjoyable.	This is one of the best espionage thrillers in years. Excellent work

Jack Higgins has a well-developed writing and story-telling style. It starts off quickly and maintains an excellent pace throughout. The characters are adequate, but not exceptionally vivid. Higgins is one of the best in the thriller genre.
