I have not read The Pharm House and think that the reading experience of this book would benefit if it is read first.

This, the second, of Bill Powers trilogy of the Harding family is an exciting and suspenseful thriller.

I love it when I fall in love with an author and their work who, to me at least. is unheard of.

The Torch is Passed is a riveting and intriguing novel. I was totally gripped and with a character driven plot, all of whom are relevant and a family who are the most interesting and complex of people, this is a book that I think will appeal to most readers.

The plot flows like a TV show and the Pharmaceutical angle makes it quite a classy tale.

I think Mr Powers can run and run with the tales that could be derived from the various individuals he has written about, and I for one would read them all.
