Assassin Eighteen

Praise for AGENT SEVENTEEN -AGENT SEVENTEEN reinvents the hitman novel. It’s a cinematic rollercoaster, full of authentic emotion and high-octane action. The tension explodes off the pages; John Brownlow is a master of suspense * Jeff Abbott, New York Times bestselling author of TRAITOR’S DANCE *A gripping debut thriller from a British-Canadian screenwriter and it keeps readers on the edge of their seats through a roller-coaster ride of high-octane action that builds to an explosive finale * Sunday Express *A slick, clever, edge-of-the-seat thriller * Crime Review *This is a fresh adrenaline-charged, and snarkily funny spy thriller with an explosive climax * The Peterborough Telegraph *This high-velocity thriller seems destined for the big screen… thanks to British-Canadian screenwriter-turned-novelist John Brownlow’s vivid imagery, ultra-detailed action sequences and elaborate plotting. * National Post *Keeps you on the edge of your seat and guessing with every turn of the page. A fantastic and thrilling new entry into the modern-day spy genre * Rawson Marshall Thurber, director of DODGEBALL, CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE, SKYSCRAPER and RED NOTICE *Exquisite writing… the dialogue is pitch perfect… a book club title that is different from the usual - grittier and very powerful * Book Reporter *The book takes off like a rocket … Brownlow is an accomplished screenwriter, and it shows * The Financial Times *The pace never falters a single inch in this high octane, breathless thriller. Lean, mean and thoroughly enjoyable * Crime Time *Fresh and entertaining … it is no surprise it has been snapped up by Hollywood * Daily Mail *This is probably the most action-packed spy thriller that fans of the genre will read this year, with short busy chapters where conspiracies unfold at the rate of a particularly sharp shooting pistol dispensing bullets * Irish Examiner *Praise for ASSASSIN EIGHTEEN -… the action is breathless and almost every single, short chapter ends with a cliff-hanger, and twists continuously pepper the narrative … if ever a series is to emulate the James Bond one, Brownlow’s ultra-propulsive prose, plots and characters could well be the one * Maxim Jakubowski, Crime Time *ASSASSIN EIGHTEEN is a speeding bullet of a novel. It never lets up and never lets you go once you’re in its grip. Highly explosive and bloody fun! * Tim Glister *ASSASSIN EIGHTEEN … brings a profane wit and some emotional heft to the world of high-end international assassins. … The sharp self-awareness, persistent humour and vivid characters help this enjoyable, lively novel stand out from the crowd. * Brian Cliff and Elizabeth Mannion for The Irish Times *
