Stephen Fry has written a good group of likeable killers devoted to doing what is right for the country at any cost. Jack seems to be the one in the group that wants to see the good in everyone one, even those that no longer possess any good. It's very interesting to watch his struggle with doing what he feels is right and what must be done.
KODIAK SKY is a masterful thriller with characters that you want to see win whatever the cost. Though this is part of a series it is possible to read and enjoy as a standalone. I had not read the others in the series but thoroughly enjoyed this one. I'm interested to see where Stephen Fry take this series as the ending was a little shocking.
