BOOK BLURB:
New York. It may be Christmas in New York, but for ex-soldier turned elite bodyguard Ryan Lock it's business as usual: his mission is to protect one of America's most ruthless businessmen. A bloody shoot-out - suddenly gunshots ring out. People run for cover. Innocent people are mown down. Amid the chaos, Lock's hunt for the killers turns into an explosive game of cat and mouse. A deadly secret - Lock's search for the truth takes him from the rooftops of a New York skyscraper to a heavily fortified warehouse on the Hudson where he confronts one of the world's most dangerous women. As the clock ticks towards midnight on New Year's Eve, all routes into and out of Manhattan are sealed, and Lock realizes that not only is his own life in terrible danger but so are the lives of millions of others...
REVIEW:
New author's always have a hard time breaking in to the market, so when I heard from a friend in the publishing industry about Sean's debut (and as a fan of Lee Child's fiction) thought that I'd best give it a go. What Sean brought to the table was a story that kept you wondering exactly what was happening from the first page. Its choc full of twists, it contains characters of a dubious nature as well as brings possible next gen drug trials to the fore in a way that the reader will never forget.
A great debut and one that has left me with a taste for future novels by this author. If you want Thriller fiction with a character who deals as many knocks as he takes. Will stop at nothing to get the truth and lives by bygone principles then this is the book for you.
