Once I'd heard To Kill The President, I wanted to 'read' more Sam Bourne novels before starting on To Kill The Truth, so I read his Pantheon, The Righteous Men, Final Reckoning and The Chosen One. They were good stories, if a little pedestrian and I enjoyed them but, once I'd gobbled up To Kill The Truth, it was clear the author has hit his stride and no mistake. Its basic premise is that, to stop all wars, history must be obliterated and a fiendish villain in the White House (names have been changed to protect the present incumbents, of course but we know who they are meant to portray) embarks on a programme of world-wide murder and arson to make sure that the memory of slavery is wiped out and Holocaust deniers can safely disseminate their views without challenge. It scared me to death! Sam Bourne writes from a feminine viewpoint very well - unlike many male authors who've tried it - and his heroine, Maggie Costello, is brave, feisty and of course, flawed. There aren't many audiobooks whose exciting bits stop me in my tracks to grip the kitchen sink but this was, for me, a real sink-gripper.
