This is a splendid entry in the Hawke series. As with its predecessors, the book is tightly plotted and energetically written… We get to see just how dangerous and reckless Hawke can be when the life of someone he loves is on the line… A propulsive, high-concept thriller.” — Booklist

“In the prologue of bestseller Bell’s exciting, at times affecting 10th Alex Hawke novel, Vladimir Putin, who’s on the run from his country’s oligarchs, parachutes out of the jet he used to escape Russia.… This entry boasts all the attributes Bell’s fans have come to love.” — Publishers Weekly
