★★★★
"Told in short and sharp chapters that are based around believable dialogue, this political thriller wastes no space. Its descriptions get right to the point, and each plot twist pushes the action forward. Madden and McCord are the types of characters who make for great series reading, and by all indications that is exactly what fans can expect going forward. SAVING VENGEANCE is a supercharged political and military thriller that has a firm grip on the pulse of international politics."
