Killing for a living is easy, living for a reason is much harder, Meet Ruslan Akulov. In the shadowy world of assassins for hire, he is known as ‘Wolf Six’!! Good book! This book was definitely action packed! Like a movie! It also had high suspense, plenty of murder, mystery, assassins, action, intrigue, a sort of who done it and some crazy twists! The story was very interesting! I definitely recommend reading this book! Thank you NetGalley and the publisher for sharing this book with me!

I love thrillers that take place in different places and cultures (bonus points for having occasional words in other languages to decipher) and author Alex Shaw expertly delivers that in Wolf Six. The fast-paced action happens in locales such as: Zurich/Vienna, Kyiv, Moscow, Morocco, Havana, Chicago and more. Could not put this one down, can’t wait for the next installment in the series. Thank you to NetGalley, Boldwood, and of course Alex Shaw for this ARC copy to review.

Wolf Six is a great protagonist. As a former member of the Werewolves, an elite Russian Special Forces group, he has been a free-agent assassin (with principals) for some time. He’s taken a new contract when everything seems to fall apart. He’s made enemies on all sides and must put his unique skills on display to survive the Russian mafia, the CIA, and others. Lots of action, and it’s works without suspending credibility.

A racing, action-packed, but thoughtful, page turner.
Akulov, the former top tier Russian operator, now freelance assassin of only the worst of society, is catapulted by his main regret, into a twisted net of violence and deceit, in which he has to rely on his natural cunning to outwit the many who want him dead.
Detailed descriptions of place, and good characterisations add to the well drafted plot. Great reading for fans of Mitch Rapp, Ben Hope and the like.
