Sinekatalog’s take
A CIA analyst becomes a target after thwarting an attack, putting his family at risk. The thriller is well-paced, with a human hero rather than a superhuman one. Solid, old-fashioned espionage action with a personal edge.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
