King has entered the spy genre arena with some hefty ammunition of his own."TheBestReviews.com and the Old Book Barn Gazette
"King, a former courier of top-secret information, delivers a tightly wound debut thriller ... [with] intelligent dialogue, relentless pacing and well-rounded characters (including a hauntingly familiar American president)." Publisher's Weekly
