Customer Reviews

A worthy sequel!

I liked the first book in the series and so getting a chance to read this one was a nice surprise. I like how Jack Warr has grown and changed since this first book, with the arrival of his daughter Hannah and expertise in how to catch robbers, having learned during the Wimbledon Prowler. In this one, there is a group of thieves that have been on the loose for a few years, unfortunately they have graduated to killing and there is a deadline to get them before it happens again. Jack has to balance between what his birth father (who was a gangster) and what the father who raised him gave him personality wise to catch this band of thieves. He has some grey bits that are not coplike but his moral compass is pretty good. There is lots of excitement and stupid cops like Lee in this book. I liked this book and I liked the tie in with the title of Judas horse. It was cool to learn about that with horses and how it could apply to people too. You don't need to read the first book to enjoy this but I recommend both of them.
