I didn’t realise before reading this that it wasn’t the first in the Nathan Cody series and think if I had read some of his other ones first I might have enjoyed this book more.

The books starts of great and drew me in quickly - I loved the coded message left for Sara and how she was able to work it out!
Cody is a complex character and had obviously been through a very traumatic experience whilst in the job (this is when I would have been helpful to read previous books) so we see many sides to him. I found it hard to like him and some of the situations he is put in by Waldo didn’t help either.

I found an awful lot of this book was based on the other books so at times I felt it slow and hard going. The beginning of the story was exciting, the middle was ok and then the ending seemed very quick and rushed. It does leave you hanging on for what will happen in future books though which is good!

A mixed review of this book but as previously said, I think I would have enjoyed it more had I read David Jackson’s books previously.
