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
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.

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. Show Less
