Review

PANIC’ is the first Jeff Abbot novel that I had the pleasure of reading but it most certainly will not be my last. In the last couple of years I have found myself shying away from the mystery/ suspense genre a bit (which happens to be one of my favorites) because, with the exception of the usual suspects such as James Patterson, Dan Brown and Harlan Coben I haven’t found too many authors that have held my interest enough to pick up another of their books. However, after reading ‘PANIC’ Jeff Abbot has put himself in the aforementioned category of a “must read” author.

‘PANIC’ is an intricate tale of spies and espionage that takes you deeper into the world of the “Deeps” with every turn of the page. The Deeps are a freelance spy network that has worked for every high-ranking government agency in the world including the CIA, FBI and KGB. They stay under the radar, have connections in extremely high places and you never know who is an operative. Unfortunately for filmmaker Evan Crasher his picture perfect life is turned upside down when he finds out that his parents are two of the Deeps chief agents. Now with his mother dead and his father being held captive Evan is forced to attempt to take down the Deeps all on his own. However, this task proves to be even harder than first imagined as the layers of this story slowly peel away to reveal just how far the Deeps run.

Abbot has masterfully woven a tale with brilliant twists and turns at every corner. I assure you this book is impossible to put down and will keep you wanting more, if you are a fan of thrillers ‘PANIC’ is a must! I urge you to go out and buy this book you won't be dissapointed i give it 5 stars!
