Great book as always, Devlin and Brosnan never let me down!!

[deaconbernie · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

It is very interesting to watch how an author's characters grow in complexity as the author continues a series. Higgins forms a good plot, sometimes misleading a reader, sometimes leaving the reader to grope. He is dependable in that his characters, though using evil means as easily as they might use good means, in good prevails. Since this is an 1982 Copywrite, it is great that he is still pumping out this type of fiction with a few facts now and then totantalize.,

Just a bit of masculine brain candy.
