Due to a sudden, unexpected passing in the family a few years ago and another more recently and my subsequent (mental) health issues stemming from that, I was unable to download this book in time to review it before it was archived as I did not visit this site for several years after the bereavements. This meant I didn't read or venture onto netgalley for years as not only did it remind me of that person as they shared my passion for reading, but I also struggled to maintain interest in anything due to overwhelming depression. I was therefore unable to download this title in time and so I couldn't give a review as it wasn't successfully acquired before it was archived. The second issue that has happened with some of my other books is that I had them downloaded to one particular device and said device is now defunct, so I have no access to those books anymore, sadly.
This means I can't leave an accurate reflection of my feelings towards the book as I am unable to read it now and so I am leaving a message of explanation instead. I am now back to reading and reviewing full time as once considerable time had passed I have found that books have been helping me significantly in terms of my mindset and mental health - this was after having no interest in anything for quite a number of years after the passings. Anything requested and approved will be read and a review written and posted to Amazon (where I am a Hall of Famer & Top Reviewer), Goodreads (where I have several thousand friends and the same amount who follow my reviews) and Waterstones (or Barnes & Noble if the publisher is American based). Thank you for the opportunity and apologies for the inconvenience.
"Till Morning is Nigh" just wasn't really my cup of tea. I didn't care much for the story or the characters and didn't seem all that interesting to me. I wish I was more interested but this just didn't work for me.
Police are called to a horrific murder of an undercover policeman that was infiltrating a drug cartel. This leads to a
Far Right Wing returned ex army group totally disillusioned with the way society has degenerated and are to make a grand statement on a certain date. It's up to the security departments to find where and what has been planned.
Enter Mr. West also an ex return soldier with a shady past, several names, and recently been early released from prison now working in a desk job with a new wife and baby at security.
The story picks up pace as everyone is working towards the date making for a tense and thrilling well written plot having this reader not being able to put the book down until the finish.
This is not only a crime story there is an important message concerning soldiers that served their country only to find upon returning they do not recognise society as the one they expected and little or no help with mental and financial problems.

I am perhaps not the right target market for this but when. I read somewhere it was a good match for Lee Child I thought I would try it. It is actually of very much the same genre and well written but simply not for me probably read too many Jack Reacher and I have this genre fatigue.
