Orla McLeod knows too much about violence for her own good. She knows about pain, she knows about guilt and she knows about survival. And because she was barely a teenager when she learnt about these things, she knows what they can do to a child. So when she and a nine-year-old boy are the only ones left alive in a freezing Glasgow tenement after a Special Branch undercover operation she was spearheading has gone disastrously wrong, there's no way Orla McLeod's going to let anyone else take care of Jamie Buchanan. Not when Jamie's the sole witness to Tord Svenson committing an act of savagery of the kind that's rapidly turning him into one of the most feared criminals in Europe. Especially since Svenson knows a lot about survival too.

I loved this book especially the action parts, the author manages to turn fast paced action into a slow motion look into the minds of characters without sacrificing suspense.

RELEASE NOTES:

I left this book in the newspaper stand at Starbucks. I guess it isn't really a stand, its just a little...I'm at a loss for the word...anyways, its with the free papers.
