As intense and chilling as le Carre, Egleton is one of today's best thriller writers (Booklist)

If you have never me Peter Ashton before stand by for action. This is his seventh appearence in an Egleton thriller and the pace is as fast as ever. (Birmingham Post)

A nerve-shredding cocktail of murder, mystery and international intrigue by a master of keeping you glued to a book (Peterborough Evening telegraph (5/5 starred review)

The action is brisk, the characters sharply drawn and only le Carre does backbiting better (Kirkus Reviews)
