When I first picked up Zyklon by John Hazen and began reading, the only thing I remembered about the title was that it was the name of the gas that was used in the Nazi Concentration Camps of WWII. I was assuming that it was about the camps and the people killed with the gas. While there is a connection, the novel is set in modern times not the times of over 60 years ago. The twists and turns of the plot line hold the reader’s attention. The character development is well done from a reporter, to Presidential candidate, to Israeli agent, and to genius “crazy” people. How these all relate and others as well is the crux of the story. There are modern day murders that have a connection with former Nazi guards, exactly how this is all intertwined makes this novel hard to put down as slight turns happen with frequency. The only distracting part of the book are just a few obvious typos that somehow escaped the editing process. None of these mistypes caused the story to be at all lost or obstructed –only slightly off-putting to a critical reader. Definitely I recommend this novel if you are seeking a novel set in the modern day with connections to a darker past. There are some connections to happenings in the current world political climate and this would make a good analysis novel.

This is the second book in the Fava series. Action 6 News’s anchor, Francine Vega hunts for the Zyklon Killer before he can kill again while at the same time reporting on a heated presidential campaign. The more she digs into each story, the more they link.
This book is a murder mystery thriller but also but it also a political commentary which is remarkably like the current situation in the US with ‘fake news’ and possibly lying politicians!
The author, John Hazen has written a gripping tale that at times hits close to home, causing a little gasp when you realise. This fast paced story mixes the quite believable action with clearly well researched history...a very clever mix.
I would like to thank the Author/the Publishers/NetGalley for the opportunity to read this book in exchange for a fair and honest review
