The story becomes a suspenseful chase as they try to stay ahead of pursuers, since Mike realises early on that the murderer is associated with the police. There are a lot of shoot outs and a shocking murder (no spoilers). Through it, Mike gradually becomes the heroic figure he was far from being at the start, where he was a graphic designer whose business wasn't doing very well. He is forced to revive skills from his ex-marine background and also an old friendship with a comrade from those times.
Most of the story is from Mike's first person narration, but it does switch around to other characters to show what is happening amongst Mike's foes in the meantime. These other viewpoints reveal that he has become mixed up in a very high-level conspiracy and cover-up, and it's hard to see at times how he can possibly survive, although the fact that there is a book two does reassure the reader on that score.
This was a page-turning read, and the only reason I've given it 3 stars is, for me, the characters were mostly one dimensional and some were not that believable. I don't usually read chase thrillers and I'm probably not the right readership for this.
