BOOK:Trigger Point: A Luc Fortesque adventure thriller AUTHOR:Douglas Misquita
MY TAKE:
Trigger Point is a gripping adventurous thriller book. The book takes us through smuggling rackets, terrorism, theft of a bioweapon, drugs and pretty much every crime you can think of. The story travels from Mexico to Europe and soon the journey of rush, thriller, suspense and action begins. It's like an action-packed travelogue.

Trigger Point is the third book in the Luc Fortesque series. Even though I didn't read the first two books in the series, I didn't felt lost even for a tiny fraction of time. It's hard for me to believe, no offence to anyone, that this mind blowing thriller is written by an Indian author. Talking about offence, I do think this book can offend some people because of the religions clashing and terrorism part but while reading this book one must remember that the book is 'fiction'. While reading this book I didn't felt distracted even for once. Whenever the book started to go off the track the author added a brand new element to the storyline to make sure the sailing through the book becomes smooth. He really did kept his readers on the edge of their seats biting their nails, in suspense.

To go a little deeper, I believe the characters could have been constructed with a little more perfection because they were a slightly raw. There was definitely some space for improvement. Come to think of the plot, it was in and out faultless. The plot was well researched and it also has this intriguing tone which made the entire experience incredible.

If you are reading my review, I strongly recommend you to start reading 'Trigger Point' Now, the book will take you through cultures of the places like Iran, Israel, Iraq, US, Switzerland and so on. The story will unfold over pages which aroused curiosity every now and then. I would like to call this book as a must read especially for people who like the thriller genre.
ABOUT THE BOOK:
Smuggling himself into Europe despite an Interpol red notice? Possible. Avenging a German bka Officer? Easy. Evading special ops teams hunting him for his secrets? Impossible. Things are about to get more… interesting for Luc fortesque. An escaped terrorist threatens a landmark dialogue between Muslims and Christians. More terrifying is the theft of a bioweapon from a secret vault operated by the holy see. That the damaging news is not public hints the weapon will be detonated. With cataclysm imminent, the world’s oldest espionage agency – The vatican’s L’ entity – must get fortesque first, hoping he might possess the cure. Treachery and corruption infect the upper echelons of religion and government, and fortesque must confront his past to be free of it. If he survives the confrontation.
