I’ve read many good thrillers written by Australian authors, and it’s good to know our neighbor to the north is also home to talented thriller writers. In Entry Point, Ethan Jones delivers the goods. This military thriller, featuring Canadian Intelligence Service agent Carrie O’Connor, moves along at a brisk pace and is packed with realistic action that could be yesterday’s news. Jones does a nice job of developing the character of O’Connor, and it is a welcome and refreshing break from the norm to have a strong female protagonist. This is a good read, recommended without any reservations.
Just finished this book which I received as an ARC copy. I haven’t read the others as yet but definitely will do! This is another good read from Ethan. Thoroughly enjoyed this book – full of characters but it doesn’t get mixed up in itself. Carrie, reads like a serious but good fun character with a dry sense of humour.
I’d recommend this book if you enjoy action and great character leads!
Canadian Intelligence officers in Afghanistan try to read the tea leaves and stay alive – 4 Stars
Taliban fighter Wahidi asks for Carrie O’Connor after shooting up a police station. Wahidi and Carrie go back 10 years — more than enough time to forget or harbor strong memories in a not-yet-ended war.
We join Taliban, CIA, Canadian, ISIS, Russian, Afghan and American representatives in fleeting meet-ups, with and without bullets flying to learn about a long-planned attack on the occasion of a visit by the President of the United states.
For a spy (AKA intelligence operative), something big is supposed to happen. Carrie’s job is to figure out and defuse the situation. Without giving a spoiler, you realize how close to impossible Carrie’s task is and how she is bound to slip up.
The interplay between set pieces representing different factions is presented well. The local bosses want to restrict all outgoing information and gobble up anything that might be useful. Cooperation is disallowed at the highest levels but the guys and gals in the trenches need to bend the rules a little.
Intelligence leaks mixed with the aroma of local cooking, multiple languages and senseless violence in the name of honor or religion can make for quick death. Somehow safe houses have working refrigerators and coffee makers warming the bodies too fuel adrenalin that fires the book’s near constant excitement.
It is an interesting story with many twists. There are people who perform extremely well in spite of horrible pain. Working in a war zone is almost as bad as being a local who has no choice but do whatever is needed to survive.
A traitor within the Taliban or a ruse to trap Carrie and the CIS? That is what Carrie has to determine when an Afghani turns himself over to government officials claiming he has info about an operation of importance. There is just one little condition to revealing what he knows – he will only talk the Canadian intelligence, and specifically Carrie O’Connor.
Get ready for some clean-action packed reading in this third book in the Carrie O’Connor series. Highly recommended for your tbr pile or to give as a gift. Appropriate reading for teens and up (some YA fiction is graphic and totally ewww, so, yes, teens).
Carrie and Nathan are partnered in this thrilling action filled book. One of the best from Ethan Jones. There is a lot of betrayal and the action goes on and on. CIS is Canada’s version of CIA and the characters are great. Carrie is always great even when she is not paired with her best partner Justin. All of the Carrie Chronicles books are great reads.
Elite operative Carrie O’Connor survived Afghanistan twice and said she would never go back. Then terrorist group attacks a police station and shockingly the leader turns his gun on his own men. When the smoke clears, he is the only survivor and surrenders, but will only speak with Carrie…On the way Carrie and her group get ambushed but make it out with just some injuries. It takes several days and some pull from Carrie’s boss before they are able to talk to the terrorist leader. With different intel they find out the US President will be visiting in the Afghan area as well as the Canadian ambassador. Lots of action, twists, turns IEDs and RPGs making the book hard to put down. Great characters and well written, recommended without any reservations.
ANOTHER DANGEROUS EPISODE IN THE CARRIE CHRONICLES THAT HAS OUR HEROINE SMACK IN THE MIDDLE OF AN ACTION-PACKED, GRIPPING, INTENSE AND EMOTIONAL ADVENTURE. IF YOU LIKE YOUR READING SMOKING HOT, THEN CARRIE IS FOR YOU.
RECOMMENDED.
AN ARC BOOK, THIS IS MY HONEST AND FREELY GIVEN REVIEW.
Entry Point – a review by Rosemary Kenny
Carrie O’Connor’s in the thick of the action as ever, in Ethan Jones’ new Carrie Chronicles thriller Entry Point, a title that, like the action within, is multi-faceted and liable to changing definitions and locations.
Along with Nathan, her CIS comrade in arms, Carrie’s plunged into international events and threats in the Far East that need her quick-thinking, fearless actions and operational experience to save the day, once more.
Danger and treachery are all around, making even a simple action a matter of life and death that cannot be second-guessed. Who will survive?
Ethan Jones expertly crafts a complete scenario that’s realistic, totally engaging and very well nuanced, to draw the reader deep into Carrie’s character-driven story, Entry Point.
Exceptionally exciting and believably flawed, you’ll definitely love and be fully satisfied by Entry Point, as with all Ethan Jones’ other great spy-thrillers.
Satisfaction is guaranteed, so get your copy today!
Carrie and her partner get a very unusual call when she is specifically called for by a surrendering Taliban leader.
As usual, missions don’t go quite as planned and seem to grow larger and involve more players. Taliban, ISIS, CIA, Russians, Afghan military and police all become involved. Carrie and Nathan have to sort through incomplete intelligence and deal with allies and enemies withholding information, or providing false info. Deciding who to trust and how to act requires all the skills and experience Carrie and Nathan can bring to the table.
I was provided with a free advance reader copy. This is my voluntary and honest review.
An action-packed thriller with a heroine secret agent
Entry Point is the first of this series by Ethan Jones that I’ve read. And it has all of the action, spies, traitors, secret agents, and shootouts that are found in the other Jones series (Javin Pierce, Justin Hall, and Max Thorne).
You can’t go wrong in reading it. So get started!
