About this listen

Jeremy Summers, a British banker with a secret that could reveal MI6 intelligence sources involved in the war against drug-funded terrorism, has been seized at gunpoint, in broad daylight, on the streets of west London. An old contact, Raglan - an Englishman who served in the French Foreign Legion - is on his trail.

Raglan's pursuit will lead him to the winter-ravaged wasteland of a remote Russian penal colony. A place that holds Russia's most brutal murderers. A place of death and retribution. How will he get in? More importantly, how will he get out...alive?

A good English action novel which is almost believable. Much better than your average American trash overwhelmed with violence.

Excellent

Had listened to David Holman's other books and loved them all but this one being set in current times was something new so l was a little apprehensive. However like his other stories this moves at a good pass, excellent description of place and utilities. The characters are good but a little predictable. Not a book that will change the world but good entertainment.

Rolls along at a good pass

Why bother? A nothing story with few redeeming features. Hangs it's justification on detailed graphic violence.

Unsavoury James Bond type unreality.
