Simon Gervais brings together blood, bullets, and betrayal in his latest Clayton White novel. The Last Sentinel propels readers through the pages faster than a RPG headed towards its target. This is a story that proves no target is fully protected from those who mean to do them harm, given enough time, resources, and motivation.
When previously unthinkable attacks occur simultaneously in southern Florida, Ex-Secret Service agent Clayton White’s vacation is cut short by a barrage of gunfire, thrusting him into action to save the love of his life, who also just happens to be the daughter of the Vice President of the United States. The VP, a man with his own violent past, does not escape the day's events unscathed. Despite the tension and animosity between Clayton and the VP, revenge is a powerful incentive to put the past behind them. While the Americans are busy trying to identify who is responsible for the attacks, their enemy is seeking his own vengeance for the murder of his father at the hands of Clayton and his former commander. The only question is the amount of collateral damage each party is willing to tolerate to complete their mission.
Gervais continues to utilize his past professional experience to enhance his storylines and that extensive knowledge is on full display in this book. Fans, both new and old, will appreciate the fact that the writing and storytelling somehow continue to get better and better each book. Any action or adrenaline junkies out there should pick up this book to help satisfy that addiction.
