Cell FORBES, COLIN
United Kingdom Simon & Schuster Ltd 2002 0743231821 / 9780743231824 Paperback
Good , 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Ex library book, covered in mylar wrap/ tear in wrap on front cover. Review In this thriller from the breathtakingly prolific author of The Vorpal Blade and Rhinoceros, amongst many others, we meet again the homicide detective Tweed and his colleagues, Paula Grey and Bob Newman from the SIS, who are once more investigating the brutal with laconic efficiency. In the search for a terrifying murderer, Tweed and co must travel the globe, this time in the company of Jules Beaurain, an old friend of Tweed and ex-police officer from Belgium. Forbes has been compared to John Buchan, in that his heroes journey to far countries in search of justice against enemies who threaten all that we hold dear. But his books are more violent and are most certainly of the present day. The pace is dizzying and relentless, marching us closer to a thunderous climax. There is, it must be said, an element of the formulaic in this latest volume, and a tendency for strangely simplistic over-description which reads like an author trying, unsuccessfully, to slow himself down. But this is to carp at a highly successful series (especially in libraries where Forbes is shooting up the lending charts), and Forbes's many fans will be more than happy with this fast-moving and exciting novel. (Kirkus UK) --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. Review Good Book Guide Dizzying and relentless...with a thunderous climax which will not disappoint --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Good , 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. White out to ffep. The countdown to deadlock has begun...It should have been a tranquil, if unwelcome holiday for Tweed.

Now the Russians, appalled that detente may be destroyed, are asking Tweed to track him down. Somewhere in Europe, a ruthless cold-blooded killer is moving towards his unknown target, a near-genius for whom 'terror is the ultimate weapon'.

With Bob Newman, foreign correspondent turned undercover agent, and Paula Grey, his assistant, Tweed must locate the renegade before crisis becomes holocaust. The final confrontation will be one of the most terrifying they have ever faced.

No Mercy FORBES, COLIN
London Pocket Books 2004 0743490010 / 9780743490016
Good , 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall ********remainder************** Forbes launches main-man and one time top Scotland Yard detective, now SIS Deputy Director, Tweed on another of his investigative adventures, with the usual whip cracking pace and staccato narrative. A man with no memory save witnessing murder, and a request from an old friend, catapult Tweed and his team into a macabre nightmare peopled by sinister characters. Instinct leads Tweed, and assistant Paula Grey, to the edge of Dartmoor, the wealthy Volkanian family, and a grizzly discovery. Armenians mingle with armaments, and Forbes' plot unfolds rapidly between locations, as the bodies stack up, and Tweed searches for the truth amongst the lies. And if a knife-wielding psychotic wasn't enough to contend with Tweed must field security forces' infighting and an assassin on his tail, as Forbes ratchets up the tension. This is a rip-roaring tale packed with action, page turning twists, sharp shooting and some nasty serrated knife work. (Kirkus UK) --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. Review Daily Mirror Colin Forbes has no equal.

No Mercy FORBES, COLIN
Pocket Books 2004 0743490010 / 9780743490016
Good , 12mo *** Remainder *** He again meets Michael, the younger brother, who is still unable to speak. He is suffering from amnesia - or so say two psychiatrists. Unlike Buchanan, Tweed insists the horrific murders are not random. A link must exist between the four victims. He also suspects a foreign power is involved. The tempo ratchets up ferociously. With Paula, Bob Newman and his team, Tweed travels to Marseilles, where murder is a way of life. A desperate battle takes place on a mysterious island. Escaping the city alive by a hairsbreadth, they race back home. Later they return to Dartmoor. Who is the fiendish killer? One eerie climax follows another. Could Michael be the key?

Savage Gorge FORBES, COLIN
United Kingdom, 31 October 2006 Simon & Schuster 2006 0743295137 / 9780743295130
Very Good , 8vo Tweed and Paula of the SIS take over the brutal murder case of two attractive women from the plodding Chief Inspector Reebeck. A vital clue leads them to a remote and beautiful county, an area controlled by the human but dangerous 'Pit Bull'. They meet Pit Bull's strange family: his volatile daughter, Margot; his other intelligent daughter, Sable; his well-mannered and observant son, Lance; and Mrs. Shipton, their grim housekeeper. Into the picture appears the enigmatic private detective, Falkirk, and world traveler, Archie MacBlade. Tweed explores the local village, peculiar in its ways, and meets the local gossip, Mrs. Grout. With Paula at his side, he visits the strange town of Gunners Gorge, bloodstained by Cromwell long ago. More murders are committed. Is Finden Square the key? HQ of ONTRANTO, the giant oil corporation, is hidden in the heart of London and owned by the devious womanizer, Neville Guile. Tweed and Paula accelerate their dangerous race to solve the diabolical mystery. But time is not on their side . . .
