One thing I particularly like is the short, punchy chapters. There's always something happening, whether it's a bit of action, a new twist or another development in the story. Most chapters seem to end on a mini-cliffhanger, leaving you thinking, "Go on then, just one more chapter." Before you know it, you've read another fifty pages!
This time, Jack Morgan is investigating a missing-person case that gradually draws him back to Afghanistan and events from his military past. I really liked this connection, as it gives the story a more personal edge than your average action thriller.
For me, not quite as good as "Private Dublin", but another thoroughly enjoyable book that's difficult to put down.
Score: 8/10
