After the SPOOKS’ difficult mission in Cuba, Morton Chapel has accepted Kathryn Lennox’s help in attempting to treat his daughter, Megan. The girl has been catatonic since she witnessed her father shoot her demented mother Madeleine. But Chapel speaks of possession rather than insanity; an hypothesis the rational Kathryn finds it difficult to accept. And Madeleine’s father, a mining industry mogul, intends to exact his revenge from the SPOOKS leader.

If there is one thing any reader of Spooks should have learnt by now it is that nothing is ever clean-cut or easy and that cover is very haunting but doesn't prepare you for the story!   And the art by Christian Rossi is just superb and I really want to find out whether this is water colour, ink wash or....gods forbid -art done on a computer!

I think that the only thing you need to write about this book is "Spooks".  Its been fun and grim from 1-5 so looking forward to future stories!  Big moustaches.  Cannot go wrong with big moustaches.

BUY BUY BUY BUY -but not big moustaches. Those you have to grow.
