Another excellent Grave book. Gilstrap was great, just a smidge less great than in his first one. If not for a couple of slow spots it would have been a fiver. Gail is a good permanent addition. I thought Harvey might have become one but I like the way Gilstrap handled him. This is going to be a great series.

First book I read on my Kindle! More of the same, semi-decent thriller. Good to fall asleep to.

After reading No Mercy I looked forward to reading Hostage Zero. It did not let me down. I like the cast of characters that John Gilstrap has assembled. Jonathan Grave is someone you want to know better, and Boxer is someone you want on your side. I hope this series continues.
Hostage rescue expert Jonathan Grave is used to going where even the government won't. An innocent man has been shot and two young people are missing. But tracking them down is just the beginning.
Jonathan must plunge into the heart of an ugly secret whose insidious path reaches into the highest corridors of power and he must defeat enemies who are willing to kill again and again to keep the truth from being revealed.
