Summary
Chris Hutchinson is a man on the run. Imprisoned for a crime he didn't commit, Hutch escapes from a British maximum security prison and starts a new life in Hong Kong. Then a ghost from his past catches up with him, forcing him to help a former terrorist break out of a Bankok prison. Or face life behind bars once more.
Meanwhile, the Drug Enforcement Administration wants to nail the vicious drug warlord responsible fo rflooding the States with cheap heroin. And decides to use Hutch as a pawn in a deadly game.
Hutch's bid for freedom takes him into the lawless killing fields of the Golden Triangle, where the scene is set for one final act of betrayal.

complicated.......
I usually like this auther but in this instance he has created a complicated story and leaps from one set of circumstances to another and makesit difficult to follow the story. sorry but not his best work.

Where's Tommy Cruise?
Any additional comments?
Tom Cruise wouldn't have been out of place in this mission impossible.
Delivered in a Cockney accent.
Completely plausible and authentic in every other way.

Extremely enjoyable
The plot was good and while I often felt I had a fair idea where it was going next (and I turned out to be right), that didn't spoil my enjoyment because it got there with style. It was almost like you could see the outcome unfolding, like a sports event shown in slow motion, but you were left admiring the way it was achieved and not wishing the author had blindsided you with a plot twist.
I thought a large part of the plaudits for my enjoyment should go to the narrator, who brought the right amount of suspense without over acting it, and had a good selection of believable accents that drew you into the characters and brought them to life excellently. His portrayal of Billy Winter was excellent and he got across just the right balance of nasty piece of work with a silver tongue … a difficult balancing act.

Really enjoyable
A new author to me but as I love the far east I thought it sounded quite interesting and I wasn't disappointed. It was a fast paced thriller with qiute a few twists and a very satisfying end. I thought the narrator did really well with the various accents even if I did find his delivery a bit irksome at times. All in all a good listen giving a really good insight into the inside workings of the Thai justice system which I assume was fairly true to life.

Good plot
It took me awhile to get into this and I did restart as I lost the plot - but I think it was more me that the book. I really am pleased I did as it was worth it and the plot took several twists and turns that you don't see coming. Although I do feel the end was rushed and rapped up too quick - would have appreciated a bit more detail - but I did enjoy and really like this narrator - just love his voice
