***** Wonderful read. February 20th 2013 - Nancy Moore. I'm a lover of historical fiction and this is a book I loved and couldn't put down. The characters were well written and timely.
***** A Disturbingly yet immensely enjoyable read. December 12th 2012. David George Clarke. This political thriller is superbly written and for much of it the reader could be forgiven for thinking he or she had picked up the latest from Le Carré.
