A well-crafted suspenseful thriller with perfect pacing...

Fatal Decision: A Sam Harker Thriller by T.K. Wolf is a wonderfully written and richly descriptive novel with brilliantly drawn characters and settings. The threads of storytelling are expertly woven in this high-octane thriller that will guarantee the attention of the reader. A skillfully constructed action-packed thriller, this book will have you turning the pages from beginning to end. In addition, the characters are drawn with great credibility and conviction.

The book description gives a sneak preview: ‘A killer who lurks in the shadows striking out at those who created her… Sam Harker’s life as a highly-skilled assassin was forced on her by Delphi Intelligence, the multinational corporation who controlled her life for years. After escaping, Sam has played a deadly cat-and-mouse game against her former employers… To save the man she loves; a killer must tap into the darkest parts of her personality… However, when her past catches up with her and spills over into the new life she is trying to create, Sam must return to finish one last job for Delphi… Unsure who to trust or what to expect, Sam must do whatever it takes to keep Jake safe. Even if it means destroying herself in the process… From Mexico to New York City, she faces a seemingly impossible task while navigating the complex web of secrets and factions. With no guarantee of survival, Sam must use every ounce of her skill to tip the odds in her favor… A single decision can have deadly consequences.’

I enjoyed the story, character development, and dialogue. There were plenty of plot twists that I didn’t see coming and that added to the book’s mystique. When I stopped reading to work, I found myself wondering what happened in the book, and replaying parts of the story in my head to see if I could figure more out. It has been a while since I enjoyed a book this much. It’s a well written suspenseful thriller with perfect pacing. Highly recommended.
