When the first sentence of the book starts with, “Sophie stood at one end of a swimming pool … about to dive headfirst into a sea of dead bodies” you know that this is a book that you want to keep reading. Midnight Gambler, an impossible to put down thriller by Don Carr, follows Sophie Grant, a determined EPA Special Agent with a complex family history, as she battles to make the world a cleaner and safer place in the Napoli region of Italy.
Unfortunately, Grant’s actions in Italy are constantly thwarted by the midnight gambler, a legendary Italian assassin who seems to be always one step ahead, complicating her efforts and those of the local CIA station and the Italian carabinieri. Packed with environmental toxins, exploding yachts, hidden tunnels, warehouse firefights, car chases, and even nuclear bombs, Midnight Rambler is a rollercoaster of action that will keep you on the edge of your seat. Carr’s plot twists are as treacherous and unpredictable as the narrow, winding streets of Napoli, ensuring you’ll be flinching at every turn of the page.
Every so often, you come across a book by a new author that leaves you utterly speechless. Midnight Gambler is one such book – a pulse-pounding thriller that grips you from start to finish. Trust me, you won’t want to miss this one.
