Summary

Imagine you are having lunch at an exclusive restaurant, filled with Hollywood’s hottest stars. And a masked gunman walks in and takes everyone hostage. You must bargain for your life against a twisted individual who knows everything about you. He also has a bomb set to detonate if his heart rate changes. If he dies. You die. You have four hours to stay alive. What would you do?

Critic reviews

'James Carol is a non-American who has mastered the idiom of the US thriller … Carol is no [Lee] Child clone, and carves out his own menacing canvas with real panache.' (The Independent)
‘Strikingly well-researched and written with a real swagger, it leaves you desperate for more.' (The Mail)

The killing game

Even though I listened to the sample I had to stop at chapter 10 as I had enough. Bought as a BOGOF. Might be a good story in there so will buy the book.

Terrifying, tense, edge of your seat stuff.

Really enjoyed this one. The tension, the suspense, and the danger. I can imagine that probably has happened somewhere in the states, it wouldn't surprise me. Well written and narrated, and I liked how it switched from restaurant to news room, to rest room. I thought King's actions at the end were correct, but he didn't realise the danger he'd put them in by doing as he did. Of course, the good guys nearly always save the day! My favourite scene I think was the "game" of Russian Roulette 6 of them played, as I didn't know who would get the... Well, wrong wheel. Although I did feel sorry for the bomber a little at the end, because of what we're told. A really exciting and suspenseful thriller, with terror mixed in, and a very good read.
