2 posts | 4 read
Amateur private investigator Ash McKenna's time is about to expireon his visa, that is. Having fled the demons that haunted him in the U.S., Ash has been laying low in Prague for nearly three months. Now, it's time to move on. But as he contemplates his next stop, a man named Roman appears, claiming to work for the U.S. government, and possessing intimate knowledge of Ash's many sins. Sins nobody should know. Roman offers to protect him...in exchange for a favor. It sounds simple: a bank employee named Samantha Sobolik is set to receive a package containing covert information in a handoff on the Charles Bridge. Ash must intercept the package, and deliver the contents to Roman. Ash refusesuntil Roman threatens to kill his mother. Out of options and too far away to protect her, Ash agrees. But when Ash gets to the bridge, he discovers that the handoff is actually a hit. Ash ends up battling a mysterious and deadly assassin in a fight he barely survives. As it turns out, the job is far more complicated and dangerous than anyone thought. Ash finds himself in a strange city, outmatched, hunted, and trapped in a dangerous game where nobody is what they seemincluding Samantha. The Woman From Prague is a riveting novel of international suspense from one of the very best crime writers working today.

Didn't realise this was a series when I picked it 🙈
Oh well
I really enjoyed this story for the most part, but it started losing me a little towards the end... though I think that was a mood shift rather than the book! I liked the narrator's attitude which kept things interesting, and the nostalgia of reading about Prague - a city I've spent a lot of time in. Think I'll have to read the other books now though 😉😏

Rob Hart has his anti- hero protagonist Ash McKenna living in Prague. He is approached by a man named Roman, who claims to be a government agent. He blackmails Ash into accepting a mission, but everything goes south during the exchange. Ash ends up battling a deadly assassin and is lucky to survive. His only friend is a woman named Samantha, who was part of the original exchange. It's a terrific book by a truly gifted storyteller!!
