Book Description:

Mike Lynch is going through hard times. But things get much worse when he witnesses a murder in a lay-by. Snatching the victim’s car in order to get away, Mike soon makes a shocking discovery - the victim’s young daughter and her nanny are hiding in the rear footwell. This is when the real trouble begins.

Mike wants to go to the police, but the nanny, Melissa, wants to delay until the daughter, Charlie, is somewhere safe. Mike agrees to this request before finding out the seriousness of the situation, and just how much danger they are really in.

Who exactly was the man he saw murdered? And who is the man he saw pulling the trigger?

In a situation where nothing is what it seems, Mike will have to fight for his life to protect a woman and a child he doesn’t know. And when the death count rises, he will discover what kind of man he really is.

MY REVIEW

I’ve read Degrees of Darkness by this author and yet again the author has written another brilliant story. 

Mike Lynch thought he was having a bad day. Yes it was bad but was about to get so much worse. When he witnesses a shooting at a lay by he ends up driving away in a different car to save himself. He’s even more shocked when he finds the victims daughter, Charlie and her nanny Melissa in the footwell behind him. Melissa begs him not to go to the police and so he finds himself being chased while trying to keep Melissa and Charlie safe and alive. Mike like us has so many questions running around in his head. Thankfully they are all answered as we keep reading. 

Although Mike Lynch didn’t come across to me as a strong character straight away  he certainly showed how strong and brave he was as I kept reading. I loved that it was told in first person point of view through Mikes eyes. 

This book proves to me I don’t read enough action adventure stories. From start to finish its a fast paced thriller. The twists and turns were unpredictable and had me ranting at my kindle. Brilliant storyline that had me thinking I’d love to see this on the television.


Although a different kind of thriller than I normally read I totally loved it. Am looking forward to reading more from this author.
