A new series from author Nick Pengelley. Ayesha Ryder grow up in Palestinian camps and learned how to survive. She made it out and became a respected academic. But the passions and skills fostered in her childhood come back when she sets out to avenge the torture and murder of the man she love.

Somewhat far-fetched, but an enjoyable read. An unusual protagonist, who I thought I would like, but she didn't quite hit the mark, sorry. I received a review copy and was happy to read this book.

This is a fast paced book full of action and thought provoking intrigue of espionage throughout London and the Middle East. You follow with a strong female lead character in dissecting clues and trying to find where the next attack is going to happen and follow her as she works to stop it. Ryder is like Laura Croft, and she is working at finding the clues then what there meaning are. You as the reader are taken on her journey and along with her get to figure out what each clue is and where she must go next. A very good book with a great lead female character, and a great story.

Thank you for the opportunity to review this publication.
