I received a complimentary copy of this book to review and was pleasantly surprised.  For a first effort I must say that Mr. Royle paid close attention to detail.  All of the pieces fit together well and he didn't leave any loose ends.The book certainly starts of at a gallop, but, unlike what other reviewers have said, I felt that the story bogged down after the intro.  I thought that Gabriel's escape was not plausible maybe even too comic-bookish, and I felt that Jonah and Mariko's relationship was improbable.  I also felt that the various sex scenes throughout the novel were unnecessary.I gave the book four stars because this is not a book that I would normally read and I did not want to be too harsh.  I am sure that many readers who enjoy cop stories, plot twists, and romance will love this novel.
