An electrifying novel of blood, vengeance, and international intrigue from the New York Times–bestselling author of The Eagle Has Landed.
As a high-powered Wall Street lawyer, Sarah Talbot believed her world was comfortable and secure—until her beloved stepson was found dead of a drug overdose in Paris. Her initial grief is compounded when she learns that his body was used to transport heroin by an unstoppable European cartel.
Trained by British SAS, Irish-born Sean Egan has no problem killing whenever and wherever someone has to die. Dealing with death is second nature to him. So when his sister’s drug-poisoned corpse is found floating in the Thames, he knows it’s not an accident—it’s murder.
Bonded by their shared loss, Egan and Talbot come together, vow to find those responsible, and make them pay. Pursuing an enemy known only as “Mr. Smith” and hunted by a master assassin, they cannot imagine the truth they will uncover—and the dangers they will face. All they know is that they cannot stop until they have their revenge—no matter the cost.

A Season in Hell edition by Jack Higgins Mystery Thriller Suspense eBooks Reviews
Excellent well paced novel with lots of action and many multi-faceted characters. A fast paced trip to many diverse and interesting locals all over creation. Highly recommend this action packed thriller.
Jack Higgins can always be relied upon for an exciting page-turning easy-reading adventure story. This book certainly meets those expectations.
Sarah Talbot is a top Wall Street operator with connections to the US President. When she is at the top of her career she is devastated that her son has been murdered in Paris. Sean Egan is a former SAS and UK intelligence operative. He is similarly devastated when his sister is murdered, also in Paris. What brings them together in grief and revenge is the fact that both bodies were used to to smuggle heroin into the UK.
Sean and Sarah will stop at nothing to avenge the deaths that have one other common factor - the victims were drugged before death with a chemical that takes away their ability to understand what is happening. This chemical has only been seen elsewhere in assassinations in Northern Ireland. Their search for the drug mastermind takes them through London, Paris, Sicily, and Ireland as they uncover organised crime gangs that may be responsible. All the time they are tracked and sometimes assisted by a brutal operator working for the mastermind, known only as "Mr Smith". The most surprising thing is that they are assisted by a top Mafia boss who has never been involved with drugs and has a vendetta with another Mafia family who are at the top of the drug trade.
This was not as good as Higgins classic "The Eagle has Landed" and the "Night of the Fox" but was still a pretty good read, albeit a bit dated.
I have read very many Jack Higgin's thrillers.
They are the sort of books to read in a few days, maybe on holiday.
I think he has written just one good book and then changed characters, title and plot
to generate a whole series!
In a few cases Higgin repeats events from a previous book.
The main character always seems to be lighting a cigarette and/or drinking Bushmills.
Having said that he has "a way with the words" to quote one of his expressions.
The books are difficult to put down other that for coffee or sleep!
These remarks apply to nearly all of his books. They are exciting to read but after a couple of weeks
they are difficult to recall. They lack real depth.
I thoroughly enjoyed this action adventure. It's written in such a way that you can even like the bad guys. It's a delightful, fast moving and intriguing story. You get invested in the characters and the plot & can't wait to see what happens next. But pay attention, because the action just keeps coming.
A typical high
A typical Higgins book with lots of action and geography, taking the reader from one country to another with a partial solution to the total plot. An education on the countryside and the local populations traits and habits which keeps you wondering where and what will happen next. A suspenseful read.
Again, the complicated situations and characters keep the reader hooked. Twists and turns kept me sticking to see what happens next.
Was not particularly impressed with all the side stuff that came with this book as it had a lot of unwanted pictures at the end.
Rimbaud, being Rimbaud, takes you on a twisted journey through his mind in A Season in Hell. The Illuminations may tend to be better reading. Both English translation (impressive translation) and French script.
