A
Soldier’s Revenge: A Will Cochrane Novel – Matthew Dunn (William Morrow)
Take one chilled plate of revenge add a pinch of fish
out of water and the chase is on! That is the best single line I can muster to
describe the latest installment in the ongoing Will Cochrane series by former
MI6 spy master Matthew Dunn, A Soldier’s
Revenge.
Cochrane thinks he turn the page on his career as a
spy/killer and is looking forward to the next chapter; adopting a pair of
little boys, the sons of a former mate who was brutally murdered and whos
Mother was caught in the crossfire of his last mission. As idyllic as that
sounds, it all comes to a screeching halt when Cochrane wakes up covered in the
blood of a mysterious dead women in his New York hotel room.
Then the chase is on; Cochrane’s skills are put to the
test in the strange environments, moving from urban to rural settings in quick
order. A pair of New York’s finest detectives are on his tail along with a
cadre of local police officers and some mysterious players from Federal law
enforcement and the unseen hand of someone from Cochrane’s past hell bent on
revenge.
Dunn is a man possessed of a particular set of skills
from his hands on experience in the field that he puts to use in driving the
action sequences of the story. You’ll find yourself muttering, “I did not see
that coming,” as Dunn mixes things up with just the right amount of twists and
turns along the way. The Cochrane series gets better with each installment.
