Being difficult to please in that when I read fiction I want to be grabbed more or less immediately or my interest wanes is not easy.  As I result I bin many books not even a quarter of the way through.  I also do not enjoy 'Spy' type or similar genre where the 'hero' is very much indestructible and therefore capable of singlehandedly righting the major events being pulled off by legions of incredibly wealthy (money no object) bad characters who have spent years and fortunes putting together whatever scenario the 'indestructible' is able to destroy in a few chapters. (Poor grammar choices - but trying to get a point across)So, when John Purkiss comes along he is exceptionally good at what he does but is fallable too, can't seem to keep a relationship together as his female acquaintances tend to get themselves killed or move on. He has weaknesses and failings but is stubborn and relentless.I just enjoy these books and need more !!!!
