Here’s the blurb
The BRAND NEW, action-packed Ryker thriller from million-copy bestselling author Rob Sinclair.
His past is coming back with a vengeance…
Ex-intelligence agent James Ryker has done many things in the past he’d prefer to forget. The last time he saw Gregor Minko – son to one of Ukraine’s most dangerous and politically influential arms dealers – Gregor was a scared 6-year-old boy in need of protection. But Ryker had to walk away. The boy wasn’t the mission.
Twenty years on Ryker is approached by two strangers in Antibes, France, asking for his help in finding Gregor – now going by the name of Gregor Rebrov. With a back catalogue of ‘crimes against the Russian state’, Gregor has escaped from a gulag in Siberia and is now in the wind.
Fuelled by old demons and painful memories of his own brutal actions in the past, Ryker finds himself once again in the thick of a complicated race against time and who knows how many of the world’s secret services, to find Gregor and get some answers.
As answers turn into more questions, they lead Ryker closer to home… and he can’t shake the feeling that he may be to blame.
A brand new high-stakes thriller. Perfect for fans of Lee Child and Robert Ludlum.

My Review
The Enemy Within is the latest novel in the James Ryker series. I’ve not read all the books, but I’ve read enough to know they guarantee an action-packed adventure in which our main character will encounter a few baddies.
The Enemy Within quickly grabbed my attention, especially with the addition of Gregor’s point of view from the gulag, while James is in a somewhat better position in the south of France. As we’re taken back to Ryker’s past, events in the present start to unfold, and we’re also treated to a trip to the Ukraine and Russian border.
I don’t know if this book is more violent than earlier ones in the series or because one of the storylines is Ryker as a younger man; it’s just that we discover how truly lethal he used to be, but the body count is certainly high.
The ending was delightfully twisty, and readers will learn much about Ryker from reading the latest instalment.
It is a violent, bloody and twisty tale, with elements of the current difficulties of the Ukraine war threaded through, which also makes it shockingly current.
Check out my review for The Green Viper.
