I liked it!

As someone who usually reads genres other than this one, I really enjoyed this book. The author is effective at putting the reader in the scene, which I enjoyed because there is a lot of action in this story. I also appreciated that although the descriptions were accurate, they were not overly graphic of violent. This book would make a great movie!

Excellent Debut!!

This is a very well written debut novel. I absolutely love finding new authors, especially talented new authors! I believe Allen Hill fits this description.

I would suggest reading the publisher’s summary as it gives a very comprehensive overview. This book is a new take on an ex-military man. Most books have former military officers becoming Robin Hoods but the protagonist in this book ends up working for a drug cartel. It’s not until he meets up with a woman whose sister has been kidnapped by and her sister’s boyfriend murdered by said cartel that he sees the light.

Christopher Lane does an outstanding job narrating. I wish he would narrate more books in the mystery/thriller genre.
This book has my HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION.!!
