PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Aydin Torkal, the 20-something hero of this exciting thriller from British author Sinclair (the Enemy series), was born in Turkey but taken as a child by his father to Afghanistan to be trained as a terrorist. Aydin, now part of a sleeper cell in Paris, is toying with leaving the cell when he sees a TV news report about a terrorist bombing in Aleppo, Syria. One victim happens to be his twin sister, who was working in Aleppo with a humanitarian charity. This prompts Aydin to finally desert. As he flees from place to place, he's forced to kill some of his jihadi brethren, including several in Berlin. Meanwhile, Rachel Cox, a member of the British Secret Intelligence Service, goes to Berlin to investigate the murder by cyanide of several unidentified corpses discovered in a demolished van and discovers a possible link between this crime and Aydin. Rachel's superiors suspect Aydin is part of an impending terrorist attack, but Rachel believes there's some critical information concerning Aydin they don't know. The suspense builds as Aydin faces danger and Rachel tries to prevent a terrorist attack. This is a real page-turner, impossible to put down.
