Summary: Another winner for Higgins!
Comment: Jack Higgins has woven a cast of characters that are daring and very real in this dangerous world. He has created a separate hit squad on either side of the Atlantic to deal with baddies - and one of the best characters he has in Sean Dillon, formerly of the IRA and now working for the government. He is a killing machine. Yet it is tearing him apart. He is a shark that must keep moving or else he'll die, and he knows it and must go on.
This book gives more info on the Rashid family and how Baron Von Berger made his wealth in part of the Rashids and part of his secret possession of Hitler's diary that implicates the current American President Cazalet's father during world war peace negotiations. The good guys go after the bad company to retreive the diary and stop Von Berger & co.
This series of books is excellent and keeps its quality. I urge those who have not followed from the beginning to indulge and get the paperbacks and follow up these excellent characters. Imaging Sean Penn as Sean Dillon...not pretty, but gets the job effectively done...

Summary: "Nazis . . . I really hate those guys."
Comment: One of the deadpan lines delivered by the heroic Indiana Jones in one of the 1930-1940 successful series, reminds me of the question how bad could a book be that continues to punish the Evil empire?
Jack Higgins never lets us down. We always know what's coming. The quips between Hannah Bernstein and Sean Dillon; the wisdom and experience of Charles Ferguson; the accolades from the President and the Prime Minister. We've seen it all before and we love it!
It's hard to give it a 5 star rating because there's nothing new. Here we have Baron von Berger, having survived certain death in the bunker, presently living the good life as an industrialist with access to Hitler's billions. He eventually becomes involved with Kate Rashid, the sister of Mid Eastern oil barons (the Rashid Brothers) and von Berger's empire becomes exponentially larger.
His long lost son, Marco Rossi, returns to him and the two plot vengeance on General Fergusen and Sean, as a result of the latters' involvement in the killing of the Rashid brothers and possibly of the death of sister Kate.
Mr. Higgins writes an enjoyable story. A fast read. He won't stretch you like Dennis Lehane or John LeCarre or Elizabeth George. A fun read. If you want more, this is probably not the place to start.

Summary: Dillon never ceases to amaze me
Comment: I have read ALL of the Dillon adventures and I find them all exillarating. Jakc Higgins captivates me with each story. I find myself putting everything else aside just to find out what happens next. Who is Dillon going to kill next? I can't wait for Mr.Higgin's next book, To the point I read the other 17 Dillon adventures over again. Mr. Higgins I don't belive can disappoint me. Once you read one its just like potato chips there is no such thing as just one, you gotta have more.
