Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the opportunity to read and review "One Minute More", the exciting prequel to Robert Rotenberg's 'Ari Greene' series. Having read all of the books in the series, I was excited to be able to meet Ari Greene prior to his arrival on the Robbery Homicide Squad. And I was not disappointed.
It’s a long-shot mission. No one thinks much of the information the Toronto chief of police receives from a mysterious a would-be assassin is about to cross the border into Canada to kill the heads of the seven most powerful countries in the world. Undeterred, he sends young police officer Ari Greene to a sleepy Quebec–Vermont border town to investigate.
During a festive and colourful July 4th parade, Greene spots his unlikely target and gives chase across borders and boundaries. But as the hours and the minutes until the summit tick down, bodies start to pile up… Travelling to Montreal and then back towards Toronto, the assassin leaves a trail of bodies - anyone they can use, and then kill, to get closer to their prey: the members of the G7 (including the Prime Minister of Canada, the Prime Minister of England, the President of the United States and the emerging power in post-Soviet Russia).
This is a conspiracy long in the making, and no one, not even international heads of state, are safe.
Non stop action, from start to finish. Highly recommended.
