Ratings and reviews

...Not ad good as the first two. The twist was predictable. The link explaining the switched off alarm systems was pretty thin, as was the explanation of how he knew about the squeaky floorboards. Well written though. Does not get boring.

I'm going to try and get ye third book Toymaker to see if it has a better plot without it being given away too early. Bit too much padding.

Great book to follow on from the first two. Once again the main character, s are allowed to be exposed to the reader during the compelling story line. Same advice as my last review,, read the books in the correct sequence. No doubt the two short stories will fill in even more gaps. I await eagerly the fourth in the series due out in March 2015
