Higgins, Jack Memoirs of a Dance Hall Romeo
HarperCollins Publishers July 26, 1990 0-00-617746-8 / 9780006177463 Paperback Very Good
Some writers can surprise their fans and win new admirers with a change of pace; this slender yet interminable coming-of-age tale by immensely popular suspense novelist Higgins suggests only that the author shouldn't abandon his career in genre fiction just yet. The abrasively sentimental (and appar ently autobiographical) narrative concerns Oliver Shaw, an eager young sold ier just out of the British army in 1949 and ready for action of a differen t kind.

Higgins, Jack Midnight Runner
Berkley April 1, 2003 0-425-18941-4 / 9780425189412 Paperback Very Good
"Death is the Midnight Runner" goes the Arab proverb that gives Higgins's l atest its name, but the title could as well refer to the book itself, swift and coursing with dark passion. A sequel to last year's electrifying Edge of Danger, this 33rd novel from the bestselling author finds the usual Higg ins crew most notably, former IRA enforcer Sean Dillon and his present boss , Gen. Charles Ferguson, head of a super-secret British agency answering on ly to the prime minister responding to various revenge gambits by the beaut iful and fabulously wealthy half-bedu, half-English Lady Kate Rashid, count ess of Loch Dhu and head of the Rashid Bedu tribe of Hazar, whose three bro thers were killed by Dillon and his comrades in the earlier book, after, am ong other acts of infamy, a Rashid assassination attempt on U.S. President Jack Cazalet. Kate first goes after U.S. Sen. Daniel Quinn, sent by Cazalet to England to investigate Kate and her operations, by seeking to discredit the senator's daughter in a drug scandal, but the young woman dies from th e drugs given her without her knowledge. Quinn, seeking his own revenge, in duces Dillon and company to confront Kate, no problem when they learn that her master plan involves blowing up a bridge in Hazar desert, thereby disru pting world oil flow and plunging the globe into economic crisis; and, of c ourse, Kate wants to kill Dillon and his pals as well. The action rolls fro m grand London hotel dining rooms and Oval Office to the Hazar desert, and mostly it's as clipped and brutal, as credible and steel-hearted as Higgins 's best.

Higgins, Jack The Killing Ground
Berkley November 4, 200 0-425-22445-7 / 9780425224458 Paperback As New
A crisp clean softcover (as new). After almost two score books, many of them bestsellers, Higgins (Without Mercy) knows how to fire up a thriller. In the first half-dozen pages, he establishes his London locale; reintroduces recurring lead Sean Dillon, the colorful former IRA man turned British intelligence antiterrorism op; has Sean shoot a smalltime hood's ear off; and intimates there are much bigger fish to fry beyond the hood's Russian employer. The real villain is a Muslim extremist of the al-Qaeda variety: Hussein Rashid, aka the Hammer of God, and one of the most successful assassins alive, with 27 certified kills of American and British soldiers and Iraqi politicians. Hussein has his sights set on Charles Ferguson, head of British intelligence. It's a longstanding grudge, complicated by the recent kidnapping of Hussein's promised bride, his 13-year-old cousin Sara, who was earlier kidnapped by Hussein himself. The proceedings are complicated; it helps if the reader is a veteran of this long-running series. But it's all pure Higgins: almost every shot hits square between the eyes, and all the characters are hard lads indeed.

Higgins, Jack The President's Daughter
Berkley July 1, 1998 0-425-16341-5 / 9780425163412 Paperback Good+
The President's Daughter is to thrillers what Hong Kong is to movies: hyper physical and flashy, filled with international menace, and perfectly choreo graphed so there's no wasted action whatsoever. And like those movies, the book's a wonderful ride, particularly if you don't ask too many questions a fter you climb aboard. The characters are strictly Central Casting: a galla nt war-hero president twitted by terrorists, a craggy old pro called out of retirement, an I.R.A. scoundrel with a heart of ... well, brass at least. The daughter of the title is a comely French countess (of course), who's ki dnapped by a nefarious group of Israeli extremists. In return for her safet y, they want Dad to nuke several Arab countries. Will he be forced to push the button, or will a trio of agents be able to reach her in time? Typical of the genre, the book's pull is the intelligence of the villains multiplie d by the ingenuity of the heroes. The President's Daughter scores highly on both and readers itching for a globe-trotting game of cat-and-rat won't be disappointed.
