"Audacious, authentic, full of tension and tradecraft ... maybe it’s true and maybe it isn’t, but either way it’s a great thriller read." -- Lee Child
"This is the best first thriller I have read since THE DAY OF THE JACKAL, and that was a long time ago. With one mighty bound Tom Cain has vaulted over Archer and Grisham and stands close on Freddy Forsyth’s tail." -- Wilbur Smith
