The Paris Betrayal is a bit like a high speed train. Once you get on, you’re going to speed until the ending, and there’s little opportunity to get off.

The book opens with what appears to be a botched covert op with Ben Calix and his team. When the fallout sees Ben fighting to escape multiple attempts on his life, he needs to flee Paris.

Unfortunately, his as yet unknown enemy, is three steps ahead at almost every juncture, so, with his patriotism denied by the higher ups, Ben is suddenly all alone, except for a blue haired woman and her dog.

As Ben and his companion flee, a sort of team spirit settles over the unlikely trio, then a face from the past arrives and his world is shattered, again. On the face of it, the return should be welcome, but the message this ghost delivers is anything but.

The Paris Betrayal delivers high octane action on every page. My mind was left reeling as I tried to keep up with the twists and turns in this masterful thriller. Ben Calix is a leading man not to be missed.
