Story
Days before the July Fourth holiday and the dedication of One World Trade Center at Ground Zero, an incident aboard a commercial jet flying over the Atlantic Ocean reminds everyone that vigilance is not a task to be taken lightly. But for iconoclastic NYPD detective Jeremy Fisk, it may also be a signal that there is much more to this case than the easy answer of this being just the work of another lone terrorist. Fisk suspects that the event might also be a warning sign that another scheme has been set in motion.

Meet John Milton. He considers himself an artisan. A craftsman. His trade is murder. Milton is the man the government sends after you when everything else has failed. Ruthless. Brilliant. Anonymous. Lethal. You wouldn't pick him out of a crowd but you wouldn't want to be on his list. In this second dip into his case files (see 1000 Yards for a further novella), Milton is sent to Italy to investigate the death of a colleague from Group 15.

Thought provoking and vivid
Would you listen to Russian Holiday again? Why?
Yes, the story is vivid in is descriptions and brings you back again and again to find out what will happen next.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Russian Holiday?
I think the most memorable moments in this book is when Bob recalls what it is like to have real relationships with other people. For most of the story he is a loner, but every once in a while he really cares for someone - which creates quite a bit of conflict for him.
What about David J Clarkson’s performance did you like?
David did an excellent job of bringing the story to life. He put emotion into the characters and well as created different voices for each of them, which made it easy to follow along with while I was listening in the car.
