Well Written With Lots of Action.

This is a well crafted and written, non stop action and mystery novel. The two central characters are in mortal danger but from who and why? They decide the best defence is attack to lure out their adversary. Full of twists and turns brought to life by good narration. Very enjoyable.

Answer the. question, Ksvin.

When Michael saw who his target was, he knew it was a trap. The woman sitting in the cafe was Nadia, Mossad agent and former girlfriend. He jerked her out of the way just in time for the sniper's bullets to miss them both. But who wanted them dead, and why? So they ran and hid in the safest way they knew how: they faked their deaths. But eventually they would have to face up to those questions when, two years later, it became obvious that someone suspected they were still alive and wanted to remedy that.

This is an intense and intriguing thriller which takes the reader with the main protagonists across parts of America and Europe in their search for people, both dead and alive, to ensure their own personal safety. Whilst the character of Wolf steadily emerges, that of Nadia is less well defined: she is very much the secondary half of the double act, treated like the little woman to be told what to do, rather than consulted over life and death issues. Which seems unlikely, given that she was Mossad trained and, despite their long and very close association both in working and personal situations, Wolf was not even aware that she, like him, was a trained sniper. Plus his constant comments to her about her use of reductions in her speech really annoyed me; I can imagine what it would have done to a feisty,real life woman. But these are minor grumbles. The story keeps the reader guessing as it twists and destructively meanders through a cast of spooks and politicians,removing some of them along the way. Who can be trusted? And, again, why were they so badly wanted dead? Good plot, well written. And also well read by Paul J.McSorley, who delivers with a fitting subdued passion, his pleasant on the ear voice gives individual protagonist voicings, though occasionally these are not easy too differentiate in conversation. Over all, though, a fine performance, well suited to the book content.

My thanks to the rights holder of A Lone Wolf, who, at my request, freely gifted me with a complimentary copy via Audiobook Boom. It was a thriller which kept me engrossed, and guessing, the whole time. This is the first of a new series and I very much look forward to continuing the journey with Michael Wolf and his wife.
