Tom Ashdown stumbles across the kidnapping of a famous American actress shopping in London. He becomes a hero in saving Melanie Adams but then other people are intent on seeking revenge. This novel is a crime thriller that centers on the need of some people to seek revenge.
Revenge is a well crafted novel with good back stories and strong character development. Bill's writng style is similar to Robert Fisk's as his characters describe the troubles in Northern Ireland. The plot and pace of this book is good. It builds like a jigsaw with each character having an integral part to play.
Revenge is an easy and entertaining book to read. It is a full story where you feel you are living with the characters as you pick it up again for another session. I got drawn into how each character planned and executed their own act of revenge. It was all done sneaky so that they would not be found out.
The ending was a little like a Dan Brown best seller but by then Bill had ticked all the boxes for a good crime thriller with some conspiracy thrown in for good measure. Revenge is a good read and I vote it the top score of 5 stars. This is Bill's first novel and he plans to publish his second in 2014, I'll look forward to that.
Revenge is available as a 1499KB Amazon Kindle eBook and was written in 2013.
