The men come off the page rather better than the women. I was impressed by the characters of Tony Williams - a man with obvious flaws but a deep-seated loyalty - and Peter Rossi, a man in a morally-ambiguous profession, who almost felt a degree of responsibility for what happened, but then if he hadn't done the deal, wouldn't someone else?
It's a good plot which leaves plenty for the reader to think about, but equally , you can read it as a straightforward action thriller. And there's certainly plenty of action. I'd like to thank the author for sending a copy to the Bookbag.
If you enjoy thrillers then we can recommend some short stories - [[Thriller 2: Stories You Just Can't Put Down by Clive Cussler (editor)|Thriller]] edited by Clive Custler. You might think of Dan Brown as THE thriller writer but - be warned - ''End Game'' is way better than [[Digital Fortress by Dan Brown|Digital Fortress]] despite the fact that there's quite a bit about computers in both. You might also enjoy [[Final Girls by Riley Sager]].
