About this listen

Jeremy Summers, a British banker with a secret that could reveal MI6 intelligence sources involved in the war against drug-funded terrorism, has been seized at gunpoint, in broad daylight, on the streets of west London. An old contact, Raglan - an Englishman who served in the French Foreign Legion - is on his trail.

Raglan's pursuit will lead him to the winter-ravaged wasteland of a remote Russian penal colony. A place that holds Russia's most brutal murderers. A place of death and retribution. How will he get in? More importantly, how will he get out...alive?

I really liked this. Enough that I listened to it twice (albeit a few years apart). The narration is great and the story well written. I’d highly recommend if you like action books.

Loved it.

Good story but ended too soon and somewhat abruptly. Good listening though, keeps you going from chapter to chapter. Look forward to the next novel.

Slightly different to the usual settings for this type of novel, particularly the second half. Well read and enjoyable.

Enjoyable yarn

I had thought this would be a thriller, but it is more an action book, with long passages devoted to fighting. No real character development. Women there to either be protected of screwed. What is the male equivalent of a chick book? Dick book?

Enjoyable listen with excellent performance. Storyline is a bit far fetched but managed to persevere with it.

Very good narration

I was searching for a book that had great narration and a good story. this delivered on both. the plot along with the characters and story keep you wanting more and all very believable. what was refreshing was the actual realism in which the story unfolds, with main characters actually being killed or murdered & as silly as it sounds they actually stop and have something to eat and do normal things that anyone would. I know that sounds stupid but it's what makes the story plausible. it doesnt take anything away from the pace of the book and I cant wait for the second in the Raglan series.

definitely a big thumbs up 👍👍👍

thoroughly enjoyed this book

Fantastic well worth listening. I would also advise buying either audible or paper back, very well written.

An excellent novel, thrilling to the end and very well narrated. It made a refreshing change to the stereotypical American characters.

Thoroughly Enyable
