    Nowhere near his best
  

*by E***H on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 16 November 2016*

I've read several books by this author and, on the whole, they are enjoyable as long as you suspend belief. I couldn't on this one however....a plot full of holes and a "hero" hell bent on self destruction and ignoring all help. There were so many holes in the plot. Why not just have him shot in the first few chapters? That would have saved all the unnecessary complicated ways used to frame him and try to murder him throughout the rest of the novel. I finished it but it just left me frustrated....a generally unpleasant book.

Joe suspects that the safety flags were moved but his superiors won't listen, badly affected by the death of his comrade Joe is returned to the UK for a short time. But Joe cannot relax even with his family and still sees threats all around with his guard up constantly its grating on his wife and child its as though he's still 'out there'.His sixth sense serves him well . there is indeed  a threat one with its roots back in the Afghanistan, and it's all too real and all too dangerous .A cold blooded ruthless adversary will find him and carry out a blood chilling evil that will result in Joes imprisonment, the first of many obstacles Joe will have to overcome as he clears his name and fights back.High tension thrills and action pulse through this story breathlessly following Joe's efforts

    Lacks a good bit of credability
  

*by M***T on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 12 November 2017*

This was the first book I have read by Chris Ryan and found it to start off ok but then deteriorated into something unbelievable. Does this happen on a regular basis where you have off duty Special Forces leaving dead bodies lying around? Are they all so pig headed and really don't give a damn about much in the real world? I am a female reader, like a good thriller be it military or otherwise but even I found it hard to understand why he went off and left his son with an old friend he had not seen for years, who was severely injured, then couldn't have cared less when she died. Dragged his severely traumatised son to wherever so he could have vengeance, but that I suppose is another story. Perhaps that is what a soldier does and the public don't hear about it. I know its fiction but perhaps a bit of believability wouldn't go amiss.
