Today I’m delighted to be hosting the blog tour for the first novel in the Henry Crown Paying The Price series, Collapse.

Synopsis

Henry Crowne: Paying the Price – Book One

COLLAPSE (Surviving is a skill – Killing another)

He is a secret IRA operative.

He is one of the most successful City banker in London

…then the 2008 Financial Crisis happens.

Nancy Wu, former eminent Queen’s Counsel, now prominent patron of the arts, receives the most unexpected call for help. Henry Crowne is accused of murder in a case that seems decided from the very beginning. His Irish background, financial terrorist connections and investment banking success inexorably tilt the scales against him. Nancy’s own lingering darker past calls for her to mount Henry’s defence but her client is the biggest obstacle. Will she manage to unpick the devious manipulations of a most twisted mind?

Collapse is a financial and espionage thriller, the first book in the Henry Crowne: Paying the Price trilogy. If you like The Big Short, The Fear Index and A Week in December you will enjoy the twists and turns of Freddie P Peters’ latest fast-paced thriller. Discover it now…

My thoughts

This is a very different type of thriller than I would normally read. It was incredibly engaging and there is much to enjoy within this first in a brand new trilogy. The high staked financial world is something I know very little about but Freddie made me feel the high adrenaline atmosphere that goes with it, especially when combined with terrorism, espionage and murder. Did I like this world? Let’s just say I am glad I could visit within the pages of this novel but it was rather exciting and a thrill to journey there briefly. Fast paced throughout, this is a super read and I”m pleased to say the next two novels in the series are now available to.

Thank you to Anne Cater for inviting me to take part in this blog tour and to Freddie Peters for my review copy.
