I love crime thrillers, and flying has always fascinated me whether I am inside the plane or watching from the ground! I will have to check this one out. Thanks for another excellent review!

This sounds like an exciting and entertaining read. I love crime thrillers. I am also intrigued about New Zealand, which I know to be a laid-back and relatively peaceful place. Thanks for the great review.

It's interesting to see a book set in New Zealand. However, the plot is not for me, so I will skip it.

This is an interesting crime fiction novel highlighting a unique crime syndicate, adventure, action, a ruthless Russian antagonist, and a captivating plot. The book is temporarily free on Amazon Kindle and has a well-written OnlineBookClub review. Congrats on the BOTD selection.

Flying lessons leading to a quarrel and then a crime thriller plot - seems to an interesting plot for weaving a story. Thanks for the nice review.

Although I have flown in a plane before, I know nothing about aircrafts and pilots. I am sure there are readers who will enjoy this crime thriller. Thank you for your review.

I tend to avoid books about drug smuggling, so I'll take a pass on this one. However, after reading the first couple of chapters, it's clear that Mr. Reynolds is a fine writer. The prose is excellent, particularly the dialogue. Congratulations to the author on his achievement and for earning BOTD.

I can only imagine fighting while flying. Interesting plot. The author did well to add backstories for each character. Thanks for the review.

Post by María Andrea Fernández Sepúlveda »

This is the kind of story that starts with an event that seems even trivial, but then the situation escalates in unexpected ways. The characters make choices that have consequences they didn't expect. A fight over a woman leads to the involvement of Vladimir Zhukov, who makes things dangerous for everyone.
Although our lives aren't often as interesting as the plot of the story, I think we can all relate to the fact that even the tiniest of decisions can have unexpected consequences. I don't care much for stories about flying, but I can see how a book full of adventure and with great character development will appeal to young and not-so-young audiences.
Thank you for your fantastic review!

This is an intriguing story that will keep one glued to the book until the end.

It's amazing how far a man can go for the woman he loves and the consequences that can follow. I would like to say Matt went too far but then, if he didn't, the actions and intrigue of the plot would not be unraveled.

Thanks for the 'on point' review.

This is a story of love and crime. Flying seems an integral part of this story. But there are also flying feelings when Matt’s girlfriend Fleur, along for the ride, causes a fight. The story seems to gain momentum with a gang leader and smuggling. From the review, the story is a thriller with very interesting characters . The author seems to have put together a great story. There are many lessons to learn at a glance. Hope to read it soon.
