From the stark tragedy of a brother's death to the unlikely alliances formed in the shadows, this book is a cascade of action and intrigue. McDermott's Driscoll is a firecracker of a protagonist, flawed yet fierce, and her chemistry with Rees Colback crackles with the intensity of a live wire. The plot zigs where I expect zags, though at times the twists come at the expense of deeper character exploration.

Run and Hide (Eva Driscoll Book 1) by Alan McDermott

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Thank you to @lovebookstours for my gifted copy.

My thoughts: wow! This was a fantastic fast-paced thriller that has a strong, badass female character. I was hooked from the very beginning and I loved the short chapters. It reminded me of the Jason Bourne and Jack Ryan characters. Highly recommend and can’t wait to keep reading this series and join Eva on more adventures.

RUN AND HIDE would be more aptly named RUN AND KILL. It’s a great read but I am opposed to any authors setting off a bomb in an elementary school as a plot prop.

Nevertheless I look forward to reading more books by Alan McDermott

Full of interesting characters with plenty of action. I would have dismissed the plot as conspiracy theory when I was younger, but as a senior citizen I find it extremely plausible. I am looking forward to reading more about Eva and her associates.

Outstanding action thriller

Eva Driscoll is a lead character to admire and, at the same time, to fear. The action starts on page one and never lets up until the series of surprises at the end.

Improbable ...

Reviewed in the United States on December 9, 2021

The author can spin a yarn …. But: one gets the impression that he kept added scenarios with the sole aim of increasing the word count.
It's a reasonable yarn although: far-fetched, the usual high-level conspiracy theory about businessmen ruling the world, un-killable heroes, unlikely scenarios, etc …
It DOES drag you along for the ride but the situations may have you laughing aloud at the incongruities and improbabilities - and even occasions where the heroine is referred to at 'his'!

Good, good, really good

This was my first time reading a book by Allan McDermott but certainly will not be the last. The action was continuous, a true page turner that kept me up late. Not a moment of dull page filling moments that really add nothing to the story. It was like every word was essential to weaving the tale. Can't wait to read seek and destroy.

I have thoroughly enjoyed other books written by Alan McDermott and have been wanting to read the Eva Driscoll for some time, and so pleased I have been able to start them. Eva Driscoll is certainly a dynamo and a very smart woman but has she met her match in the ESO. Time will tell. Tom Gray makes a small appearance and a couple of his employees play a part also and it is good to see this cross-over. Such a great pace to the story. Look forward to reading more in this series.
