Sure Fire - Jack Higgins with Justin Richards


Dug out by... Dave

Tightly written with action coming thick and fast from the start. I liked the switching of viewpoint to show the various parties involved. It's a pacy read.

If you liked this, try...

Robert Muchamore's Cherub series, Anthony Horowitz's Alex Rider books or the Young Bond books by Charlie Higson

Postbag - May Contain Spoilers

Dave ~ Actually, I didn't like it much in the end, despite noting down at one point that the tightly-written prose reminded me of Hemingway. It was just too much action for me. Relentless. But then, some readers will like that.
