by Hugh Fraser

When a step out of line means a fight to the death...
London 1967
A working girl is brutally murdered in a Soho club. Rina Walker takes out the killer and attracts the
attention of a sinister line-up of gangland enforcers with a great deal to prove. When a member of
British Military Intelligence becomes aware of her failure to fulfill a contract issued by an inmate of
Broadmoor, he forces her into the deadly arena of the Cold War, with orders to kill an enemy agent.
Rina needs to call upon all her dark skills, not simply to survive, but to protect the ones she loves.

Erm,...

This was confusing, all over the place, predictable, lacking plot, thriving on completely nonsensical and gratuitous violence and ... I am so disappointed.

There was hardly any character development with respect to Rina or anyone else other than her baby sister growing into her own badass-style of assertiveness.

Other than that, I have the same issues with this book as I had with the first instalment, Harm, except there was no longer anything fresh or intriguing about the story.

Could it be that Hugh is churning out these books too fast? Not enough time to develop a plot? Or a point?

Yeah, this was not good.
