"I loved the international chase in this book, and the adrenaline and excitement of not knowing where it would take me, or what would happen next, meant I sometimes forgot to breathe. There was rivalry and hostility, but ultimately cooperation, between many agencies and units, but I was never quite sure who to trust.

There is a little bit inside of me who would love to be as fearless, strong and clever as Mel, but I’m not sure I could cope with the adrenaline or danger of her life. For all her strengths and ability to think clearly in a crisis, this book also showed her vulnerability, and the real test came when the enemy targeted her weak spot. I never doubted her, but with a climax so personal, I wasn’t quite sure who would have coolest head at the end of the chase.

This was a great read and sufficiently different to many of my usual books, that it refreshed my mind and awakened my senses."

"A fast-paced, tense novel with an intricate plot and fascinating details of military techniques and special operations. Mel and her colleagues are fallible but likeable protagonists, who come from an interesting range of backgrounds, and all of them develop throughout the story. Double Pursuit is a fast-moving, exciting thriller, which I thoroughly recommend."
