The fight scenes in this book range from the very one-sided moments, where Mallowry proves that even two are no match for one when that one has special forces, training, to those where Mallory is really up against it and it looks as though his fate may well be sealed.

The other characters featured are also cleverly drawn and you can tell that Middleton has enjoyed the writing of this book. However, Mallory works out that there is someone else involved, someone who is keeping out of things but pulling everyone’s strings. However when a Serbian with a knife attempts to kill both Oceane and Mallory he is determined to find out what has happened.

Following his service in the military, he would work as private security for VIPs in South Africa, and it was this expertise in security he would bring to his work in television, and ‘SAS: Who Dares Wins.Yes it’s OTT and Mallory is clearly made of titanium but it’s highly entertaining and I definitely enjoy it. Fortune brings him together with one of the town's residents, an old gentleman by the name of Serge, who tells Mallory of his fears for his granddaughter, Océane, who he has lost touch with following a heated argument. A great thriller from Ant Middleton; I have also enjoyed his motivational books and seen his talks, a very inspirational guy. If there's any chance of shooting, fighting, action and the like you can bank on him being in the center.
