Summary

After a showdown with the notorious Yemeni terrorist known as The Panther, life seems to be getting quieter for maverick federal agent John Corey. Professionally sidelined, away from his wife, and partnered up with a young, good-looking rookie named Tess, Corey is saddled with a dead-end job running easy surveillance on a group of Russian UN delegates in New York City.

But then his subjects slip the net, Tess starts acting suspiciously, and an old, dangerous foe reappears. With Russia resurgent and a clear and present danger in his own backyard, suddenly Corey's life hits the fast lane once again.

Critic reviews

"Big, compelling and furiously paced, it screams to a terrific climax." ( Daily Mail)
"DeMille's strengths are legend. His characters are rounded and appealing.... His writing is fluid and accessible and his plots are tremendous." ( Sun)
"Corey: a wise-ass with a splendid line in sarcasm, even in the most violent of circumstances." ( The Times)
"Written with a neat wry humour, it's full-on and fast-paced." ( Daily Mail)
"Intelligent in depth and storyline...a storming read." ( Mystery People)

Master Storyteller

Nelson DeMille is a great story teller and John Corey is a great character but just as much credit must go to Jeff Harding who is a supreme reader and adds immeasurably to the experience

Save your money.

The author seems to be losing his edge. I didn't enjoy the book but kept going until the Quiet End...
