Journal Entry 1 by Plum-crazy from Brighouse, West Yorkshire United Kingdom on Monday, March 21, 2011
Six years ago, Jack Till helped Wendy Harper disappear. But now her ex-boyfriend and former business partner, Eric Fuller, is being framed for her presumed murder in an effort to smoke her out, and Till must find her before tango-dancing assassins Paul and Sylvie Turner do.
The Turners are merely hired to do a job, though, and prefer to remain anonymous. When they find that a middleman has let the true employer know their identities, finishing the job is no longer enough. Their fee just went up. And now they must double-cross the man who wants Wendy dead before he can double-cross them—if their jealousy and cold-blooded calculations don't result in a fatal lovers' quarrel first.

I'd never heard of this author but when I saw this in a charity shop for 25p it seemed too good to miss - after all it I could always just release it for the AUGUST ONE WORD CHALLENGE. But I read it.....& what a cracking read it was!
Jack Till helped Wendy Harper disappear 6 years ago & now he needs to find her...& this could so easily have been the whole story, Jack tracking down Wendy & trying to get her to safety but instead we also get the story of Paul & Sylvie Turner - the two assassins who are also hunting Wendy. In fact I enjoyed the background of how they became assassins & their side of the story more than that of Jack & Wendys!
The two stories running alongside results in a gripping, fast-paced thriller that for me was above average. I'll be on the lookout for more by this author & to see if Jack...& in indeed the Turners....feature in any other books.
