Die Twice
Book - 2010
"Modern noir at its best... Here's hoping Grant is hard at work on the next installment featuring his thoroughly compelling tough guy hero, David Trevellyan." -Jeffery Deaver, on Even In his gritty, action-packed debut, Even , Andrew Grant introduced readers to David Trevellyan, a James Bond for the twentyfirst century. Now, Trevellyan returns in Grant's latest, a fastpaced, modern thriller fueled by adrenaline and revenge. Obliged to leave New York City in the aftermath of his previous mission, David Trevellyan is summoned to the British Consulate in Chicago. To the same office where, just a week before, his new handler was attacked and shot by a Royal Navy Intelligence operative gone bad. Assigned the job of finding the rogue agent and putting an end to his treacherous scheme, Trevellyan soon finds that once again, his only hopes of saving countless innocent lives lie not within the system, but in his own instincts and skills. Trust is an illusion-trust the wrong person, and it could get you killed. Drawing comparisons to Robert Ludlum, and his own brother, Lee Child, Andrew Grant's remarkably seasoned voice cuts a new path through the crime thriller genre, continuing to test the limits in this groundbreaking new series.

Add a CommentThe first book in the series wasn't bad. But this one is pretty awful. Grant is so desperate to imitate his brother, Lee Child, that he should just rethink what he's doing and find his own voice.
If you have a problem falling a sleep then this book is for you.
Came across by accident but enjoyed the book. A little slow in places but good concept and over all good plot structure. Intrigued enough to get fort book and maybe another more recent book to read.
Definitely an easy reading book.
A good concept - a secret agent of the Royal Navy operating in USA. Good characterisation, but a confusing plot and way too much time spent on 'how he was trained'
Very poorly written book.
