Revenge
By Martina Cole
⭐️⭐️⭐️

He thought he was invincible. He was wrong.

REVENGE by the 'undisputed queen of crime writing' (Guardian) and Sunday Times No.1 bestseller Martina Cole is an unflinching novel that exposes a world that many would rather ignore...

Michael Flynn is untouchable. He's the boss of a dangerous empire, the biggest the criminal world has ever seen. No one crosses him, no one gets in his way, and everyone does what he says - including the law.

But you don't get to where Michael is without making enemies. Someone is out for revenge. And it's best served when least expected.

I liked this but it wasn’t my favourite of hers I found some of it too similar to some of her other stories and yes I know she has a type and way of writing but this wasn’t as good as those she’s written before. Although it was brutal and possibly more so than others.

Airport fiction.

The type of - largely disposable - novels you pick up and read whilst in an airport, waiting on a flight, or actually on said flight itself.

Which is exactly when and where I read this, without knowing it is actually the 4th in a series!

Thankfully, however, it is written in such a way that you do not *need* to have read the previous, although - and I'm guessing here - I suspect it may help to provide some wider context if you do so.

Anyway, in this the master thief Riley Wolfe gets involved in a plot to steal the Rosetta Stone from the British Museum, with the help of a new partner, whilst a ruthless new criminal collector has a vendetta against him for stealing from their collection.

Plot twist, if you can call it that, you can see coming from a mile off.

May read more; wouldn't be in a hurry to do so.
