The possibilities seem endless and when an author can make me feel the suspense and tension like this, then it’s a win for me!ĭespite being so far into the series, you can pick this one up as a standalone without issue. However, that being said, when it comes to the espionage thriller genre and things are well-researched like this, it can almost feel too real. The research the author puts in really shows and makes this even more enjoyable to read. What you can expect out of a Brad Taylor thriller is non-stop action, believable and relatable characters, and the scenery and scenarios feel so authentic.
