My Thoughts:
With it being only a short book, it was nice and quick to read. This is one of only a handful of pieces of fiction i’ve read as i’m not much of a fictional book kind of person.
The story started off dramatically and then went into really long winded elaborate descriptive writing about situations and scenes in the book which I thought was over the top. The story also seemed to take on a whole new shift.. sold to me as a story about an assain / hitman, and it started this way, it morphed into a book about a mans way of life, then a police hunt, then a kidnap story.

Rating:
4/10 - While I enjoyed the book, I have definatly read alot better and won’t be badgering any of my friends to pick this one up.
