Now with The Arctic Event James Cobb has taken over writing and it's every bit as good the prior two books, and miles ahead in quality of the initial books by Gayle Lynds.
I'm looking forward to the next book in the series where Kyle Mills, one of my favourite authors, takes the reigns. Although it is a bit disappointing to see James Cobb didn't get the gig again as this book was excellent.
The author of this is now on my list to read more. Very well done, exciting. Almost as good as the original Robert Ludlum books. It's almost like Ludlum is still with us.
Not a book I would want to re-read a second time.
