Summary

Rio de Janeiro. Brazilians call it Cidade Maravilhosa - the Marvellous City - but crime festers in its favelas like cancer.

John Milton is visiting an old friend who runs a close protection business guarding the city's elite. Milton offers to stand in when one of his bodyguards doesn’t turn up for work. The job? Take the wife and daughter of an anticorruption judge to a school recital and bring them back again. Simple?

Not so much. The girl is snatched off the street, and Milton is nearly killed. As he recovers at a Group Fifteen safe house, he decides on two objectives.

First, find the girl.

Second, punish the kidnappers for what they’ve done.

Milton’s trip becomes a lethal quest into the heart of the lawless slums and against the gangs who wield the real power in Rio. But Milton won’t stop there - he’ll chase them right into the horrific heart of darkness until his special brand of justice has been well and truly served.

best yet

can't fault Mark Dawson's books. each one is absorbing believable and brilliant. this might be the best yet but I say that every Nye Milton book I read. the narrator is second to none. best narrator I have heard.

Another great story

His age is showing. However, he still outclasses the opposition. John Milton/Smith is what Bond should be. Dawson's series about the ex-assasin from British intelligence who travels the world righting wrongs as penance for his past continues

Another great read

This latest instalment of the John Milton continues in the same style. Thankfully with less reference to the AA, which have been a little over done in previous books.
Thoroughly entertaining, I listened attentively for two days and really couldn’t put this book down.

Another Mark Dawson gem

Paints a picture of parts of Brazil and not a nice one, John Smith manages to get things right despite all the odds against him, enjoy I know I did.

Still loving Milton , even after 14 books or so.

One Milton every few months now, seems like a good prescription. The weapon handling & detail is particularly satisfying. of course , after so many books, you can predict the story but it's well written & always brings a tear or two & goosebumps as Milton avenges his victims. I think the narrator is as important as the writing, & here , David Thorpe is just perfect..

Flawed hero

There is no better flawed hero than John Milton. Not a people person with alcohol problems, Milton is a modern hero

Another great Milton story

The Guns 'n' Roses references dragged me back to my own teenage years. I can imagine the look on Drake's face if he'd mentioned his assassin career just before he squeezed the trigger!

Entertaining

I don't usually like "hero" books but the plot was good, as were the characters. Overall I found it entertaining if lacking a little in sophistication.
