John Hanzls writing style and story are similar in some ways to Robert Ludlums earlier novelsa definite plus. John has an exciting style which draws you in and keeps you turning the pages.
Kaye Trout, Midwest Book Review
Mr. Hanzl does an excellent job of weaving several subplots around the main plot for a fast-paced, page-turning journey with characters who come to life almost immediately.
