The Paris Betrayal is the first book I've read by Author James R. Hannibal. I wasn't quite sure what to expect, but I was intrigued by the title and description. Thankfully I was not disappointed! Mystery/Suspense is my favorite genre to read right now and for me to really love a book it needs to grab me from the get-go and this one did just that. It had be turning each page eager to find out what happens next. It is a very relatable book for what's going on in today's world. It is post pandemic and talks about bio-weapons however, not covid ,this could still be hard for some to read about. It did not bother me, but readers might want to be aware going into it.
After a rough mission in Rome involving the discovery of a devastating bioweapon, Company spy Ben Calix returns to Paris to find his perfectly ordered world has collapsed. A sniper attack, an ambush, a call for help that brings French SWAT forces down on his head. Ben is out. this is a severance-reserved for incompetents and traitors.
Searching for answers and anticipating a coming attack, Ben and a woman swept up in his misfortunes must find the sniper who tried to kill him, the medic who saved his life, the schoolmaster who trained him, and an upstart hacker from his former team. More than that, Ben must come to grips with his own insignificance as the Company's plan to stop Leviathan from unleashing the bioweapon at any cost moves forward without him. He struggles against the infection that is swiftly claiming territory withing his own body.
Be warned that when you pick up this book you are not going to want to put it down. So clear your schedule and get ready for a great suspense novel that will keep you guessing.
