Angel of Death is the 12th book in the James Ryker series and a very entertaining read.

I've only read one previous book in the series, and I found this one to be a much slicker and more engaging read with our two main characters, Ryker and Angel, alternating points of view. It's quite a globe-trotter, although much of the action takes place in the UK, but a UK told very much through American eyes (and with US spelling)- including gas stations and quite a few handguns. That said, the narrative is good enough for these things to pass me by with only a slight chuckle as the action ramps up.

Ryker is as violent as in the previous book, but he might just have met his match in Angel of Death.

This is a really solid read, sure to appeal to fans of the genre and those looking for an action-packed thriller.

My thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for my review copy.

Book 6 in the James Ryker Series and Ryker is still desperately trying to track down The Syndicate. This time, working with his colleague/handler the target is terrorist Ismail Karaman. Karaman is an extremely wealthy Middle Eastern who Ryker believes is head of the secretive organisation.

Briefly, Karaman had survived an attempt at capture by an SIS agent Angel some years before. Angel had been caught and imprisoned in Beirut. Now embittered and looking for revenge she is after blood. So the Ryker and Angel find themselves with the same target. What can possibly go wrong? Well, simply everything as the word “trust” flies out the window as bullets come the other way.

Ryker is a great character, former intelligence agent, he is loyal and honest but also ruthless. Fast paced, some graphic violence and an explosive and fatal climax this is a shocking and exciting page turner.

This was a good book that was super fast paced, had tons and tons of action, had so many twists and turns that it felt like I was on a rollercoaster. I think the pacing was fantastic, and the plot was good. I enjoyed this book!

Thank you to NetGalley, the author, and the publisher for this complimentary ARC in exchange for an honest review!!

Why have I never read this author before?? I feel I have missed out but will make up for it now. I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Interesting characters and an excellent storyline with lots of twists and turns.

The action in this book starts from the first page and doesn’t stop. It is full of twists and betrayals and sometimes it was hard to tell the good guys from the bad guys. I will definitely read this author again. Thank you to net galley for an advanced readers copy.

The James Ryker series I believe is one of the best espionage thriller series there is out there, and I have been a fan since book one. An ex-intelligence agent, Ryker provides the reader with everything you could wish for in a character that lives life on the edge. He is highly intelligent, ruthless, loyal and has suffered great traumas in his life, but as the books progress and we learn more about him, he is also incredibly human and relatable.

Each book is chocked full of action and suspense and the latest ‘Angel of Death’ is no different. Here Sinclair presents us with some fabulous characters, a deadly terrorist Ismail Karaman who creates fear and destruction wherever he goes but seems to be bullet proof while maintaining his affluent lifestyle while committing appalling crimes. But now he will have to rise to a new challenge and face up to a fearful nemesis named the ‘Angel of Death’, a former agent who Karaman has left a never-ending mark on, destroying her family and left her rotting in a Lebanese prison.

So now Karaman has two incredibly highly trained targets on his back, both Ryker and a woman who is thirsty for revenge, these are two people you certainly do not want to mess with but for the reader, we are about to be highly entertained. As always, I opened the first page of the book and was then unable to put it down and finished this in the early hours of this morning. So many twists and turns will keep you glued to the pages and if you are looking for action you will not be disappointed. The suspense is palpable throughout and the fast moving and complex plot ensures that this book will be another winner for Rob Sinclair.

Thank you to Netgalley, the author and publisher for an advanced copy of the book, all opinions expressed are my own.

I was on the edge of my seat from start to finish, it had that thriller element that I wanted. I thought Rob Sinclair wrote this in a unique way and that the overall story worked with the revenge element. The characters felt like they belonged in this world. It's amazing that we're twelve books in the James Ryker series and that it continues to be a great series.
