Midnight Runner (Sean Dillon #10)

Midnight Runner by Jack Higgins is the follow up (in the middle of a series) to his previous book Edge of Danger - the remaining antagonists of the previous book plot revenge against Sean Dillon.

Though there is as much action and suspense Edge of Danger and Midnight Runner as in his other books, the villains in these two books were not as compelling for me. Having said that, Higgins is still a master of the thriller.

Sean Dillon and Billy Salter are excellent characters who readers will follow on any adventure. They are the right combination of good and bad to get away with just about anything - sure they work outside of the law but they do it for the right reasons - to get the bad guys. All of Higgins repeating characters are interesting, complicated people who are worth reading about and the series overall is worth the time to read for any fans of suspense thrillers.
