This was a very good book. Fast moving, great chacters and lots of turns but always on point. I found myself cheering for the bad guy! I thought the end of the book could never end the way I wanted but.... It's a great read!! I've just ordered three other of Jack Higgins books and I can hardly wait to get them.
