Great cast (0 more)
A classy film with a wide array of fine English actors on show. A compelling story set during the days of the cold war. However the very slow pace will put a lot of people off and it's running time is a fair bit longer than needed. One you really need to pay close attention to, and work out the code words and what they refer to. It just didn't have any real action for me, which let it down. A fine performance from talented cast nevertheless.

Caleb Daniloff opens up about his life as an alcoholic as he travels to the cities he used to live in to run marathons. The book mixes the past and the present to weave a compelling and emotionally captivating story. I really got caught up in his story and enjoyed every page of it. And as a running, I certainly identified with the descriptions of the races.

When one of the competitors dies during the annual pancake eating contest, Dani finds her family's maple syrup business falling under suspicion. After all, the contestant's syrup was poisoned.

I enjoyed the book from the very beginning, but the more I read the further I got pulled in. The characters were complex and compelling and the mystery was great. The humor was an added bonus. Just watch out for those maple syrup cravings.

Jason's story continues in this brilliant follow-up
Not to give away the story, but starting off with a twist virtually guarantees that the rest of the story will be above and beyond. Jason's got a lot of choices he needs to make, and having changed the fundamentals of the game, a lot of people are gunning for him.

Including Alexion.

And let's not mention Alfred's offer, the one that Jason seems equally unsure of and eager for.

Travis has developed a very compelling antihero, and I can't wait to see what happens next!
