Goodreads review by David on May 25, 2017

I've been a fan of Jack Higgins for years. 'The Eagle Has Landed' is my favorite. The character 'Liam Devlin' is brilliant, and unfortunately not used in many books by the author.

HOARDER CHALLENGE #26-TURN THE OTHER CHEEK Here's another Higgins book that I leave on my shelf until I need a 'purse bag book'.

He was phoning them in, if he was even doing the writing; cookie-cutter characters, in one case he replaced a killed character with an exact replica, right down to religion and grandfather (both grandfathers were superstar Rabbis). He kept f......more
