    About this audiobook

    A ruthless killer is seeking revenge – and she has Sean Dillon in her sights – in this adrenalin-fuelled adventure from the master of the modern thriller.

    The murderous Rashid family were forced to pay the ultimate price for their crimes by the British Government’s secret enforcer Sean Dillon and his undercover team. Yet one member of that oil-rich dynasty was allowed to live, and that could have been Dillon’s fatal mistake.

    Kate Rashid witnessed her brothers being killed one by one, and now she has sworn vengeance. Sean Dillon, White House operative Blake Johnson, even the US President himself…their time is coming, and only she knows how – or when.

      Oh jack, you so disappointed me. This was a really good story until the last six or seven pages and then the whole thing went sailing off the edge of the world. The usual characters are all in character. A good guy is introduced, an American Senator, who learns to his dismay he isn't quite the man he was in his twenties. It is in how this character decides how to deal with his new found limitations that makes for a great scene, perhaps one Higgins' best in all his works.

      This is the 10th book in the Sean Dillion series and it was in a word, disappointing.In the last book Kate Rashid attempted to organise the assassination of the US President, shot a police officer 3 times and and laundry list of other crimes. Her three brothers were killed by the "goodies" yet at the end of the book, this extremely rich criminal was... let go.Now guess what a career criminal still wishes to commit crime. Who wouldda known hey?So basically this book's entire plot line is based around an immense plot failure of the last book, if you're able to swallow the stupidity of that it's not a too terrible. However the entire time I just found myself thinking how ludicrous the scenarios played out in the book were and how it all could have been avoided with an ounce of common sense.
