Sleeper 13 by Rob Sinclair
Another belter of a thriller from Sinclair. Aydin, trained as one of the most elite insurgents (or terrorists) of his generation (I’m not telling you who for) is doing things for a cause he doesn’t believe in and looking for a way out. But is there ever a way out for someone like him? And will Rachel, an MI5 agent, who suspects there is to be a big terrorist atrocity make others believe her? Tension and action on every page as the two forces head for the denouement.

GHOST by James Swallow
You could go straight from Sleeper 13 to Ghost because it will keep the adrenaline racing nicely as a devastating threat emerges from the dark net, and a betrayal a heart of a covert strike force doesn’t help matters. A deadly pursuit across a digital battlefield, and a terrorist out for revenge add to the building stress. Crikey. Will Marc Dane track down the mastermind, or will there be world war? Knife edge drama, tautly written, the pages turn like greased lightning. Enjoy, and don’t bite your nails.

In the Dark by Andreas Pfluger
Fascinating novel with a blind detective on the trail of a psychopath. I found the plot riveting but also the world of the blind. A world dependent on sound, smell and intuition. It definitely builds in an important level of interest. So, Aaron receives a call. A prisoner has committed a brutal murder in his high security cell, and he will only confess to Special Agent Jenny Aaron. Do read this, it holds the attention on many levels. Bravo.
