James Pattinson's Life-Preserver although fifteen years old has stood the test of time and is up there with his other fire star quality novels such as Obituary for Howard Gray, Crane and The Animal Gang. This is another book you won't want to put down until the last page. In this adventure we are taken to Central America where a democratically elected president narrowly avoids death in his escape from a military coup. Obviously he must remain in hiding to stay alive so when he is approached by a photographer with pictures of the current president and one of his blood thirsty ruthless general's wives naked together he believes he has a the ultimate life preserver so he can live a life without fear. Of course men who have lived their whole lives through violence do not see it the same way as is evident when he receives a package containing a part of his daughter and demands for the photos in return for the rest of her.
