I jumped into this character in book #4 since I got a free copy on NET GALLEY #bestbooksiteever.

Anyone it was good but typical assassin 'round the world with no food/rest/or reload. It is a good story I just like a little more detail.

I did like the I'm a good guy but really I am a really, really bad guy part.

The book opens with a somber note that is sensitively explored and takes you straight into the action. It builds from there taking the reader on a rollercoaster ride. The characters were believable and it captures a good sense of emotion throughout.

Definitely worth a read!

Very enjoyable and set at a frenetic pace that takes you to the heart of Syria and the centre of Paris, the Assassin’s Code is my first experience of David Slaton and one I look forward to visiting again in the near future.

Incredibly atmospheric and strong in characterisation the author sets the scene with a strong foundation while Slaton and his family are as far away from civilisation as they possibly can, hiding. Not far enough however as technology, or the use of, catches up with the former assassin and it places Slaton, his wife and child in imminent danger. Something has to happen and it certainly does.

Slaton travels to Paris and finds himself bang in the middle of an international incident. The story moves along rapidly as we follow three main characters. All three arcs come together in a fitting climax and an intriguing finale. Very well thought out and explained.

I can only imagine the back story from the first few novels but it didn’t once hold me back from enjoying the latest novel but I’d certainly read them if I had the chance. Excellent thriller writing and a little action and deadly force thrown in for good measure!
