May 2008 Debut of the Month.
The first in a series featuring American journalist Henry Parker, an innocent caught up in murder and hunted by both the police and some very unpleasant “baddies”. Aided and abetted by a “good woman” and battling his way through police corruption, revenge and an assassin with psychological problems, he (obviously) wins the day.
I am making this sound very glib but actually it is a cut-above the norm in this area and a good start to what should develop into a terrific series. The next comes in January 2009.
Comparison: Harlan Coben, James Patterson, Simon Kernick
