I loved this story!
January Justice is a story with unscrupulous characters, who are ex-revolutionaries, desperadoes, criminals, kidnappers, and people who are experienced in firearms and bomb-making. At times I wondered who was truly trustworthy. I hoped the main character and hero, Malcolm Cutter, had the training and resilience and wisdom to know how to deal with them.
January Justice is told from a first person voice, Malcolm Cutter. At times he reminded me a bit of Humphrey Bogart's character Sam Spade, in the movie The Maltese Falcon.
The main character Malcolm Cutter is a man's man. He is confident, bold, resilient. He's sarcastic, but charming. He's a thinker and planner, but he's also a man of action. He's methodical, but plans for surprises. His training in the military prepared him for his job as a chauffeur, and later bodyguard. I enjoyed reading a story that was full of action, and at the same time plausible and believable. So often an action type novel just doesn't seem like it could be anything other than fantasy type fiction. I'm hoping there will be a sequel to January Justice .

This was an intense, fast, read. If someone tried to tell me all the different things that would happen with this book I would have told them they were crazy that a book with all that would be horrible. Well Dickson proved me wrong with January Justice. This was a great thrilling read. Highly recommend it to all who love thrillers.
