The Walker Conspiracy Paperback – April 17, 2014

This book was suggested to me by a friend, and as an avid reader I'm pretty picky about my reading selections. I must admit that I was highly impressed with Finden's work, especially for a first time author. There were numerous unexpected plot twists, marvelously in-depth character descriptions, and most impressively, thoroughly detailed descriptions of the many international locales that the story meandered through such as Havana, Antibes, Siena and Istanbul...it felt like Finden was a long time resident of each city, sitting in person describing the mood, scenery and action while it was all happening right then and there.I gave the book to my husband Andrew when we went to the cottage, and he had a tough time putting the book away, finishing the last page on the top deck of the BC Ferry on the way home after our 4 day trip as the sun was setting over the mountains....he loved it!Congratulations to the author for a great first novel, and we'll be sure to buy his next book when it's published.

A timely and fast paced thriller at the intersection of banking and technology that highlights how nefarious actors might hold our financial institutions hostage. As the story move swiftly around the world, the reader is left with bated breath for the next plot twist that concludes with a unexpected ending.The main story line is driven by characters to which the reader can easily relate, particularly those that have worked for large corporations. At moments in the story the familiar reader can sympathies with the characters as the deal with not only with police bureaucracy, but corporate bureaucracy. While some of the corporate interactions are more stereotypes than typical, they serve the purpose of moving the story along. The quick pace of the narrative is sometimes sacrifices character development, but not to the point of limiting the appeal.This debut novel serves the genre well and combines the pace and technical detail of Tom Clancy with the familiar character types of Clive Cussler. A solid entry into the adventure thriller genre with compelling protagonists.

A well written and fast paced thriller that is impossible to put down. The elaborate and twisting plot weaves a path across the Atlantic and back, and takes the reader on an exciting race to uncover the mysterious kidnapping of a senior executive sitting at the cross-section of a grand plan to bring down the global financial system. Character development is excellent - from the two compelling protagonists to the evil mastermind behind the sinister plot. What a debut for Mr. Finden!

I am not someone that reads a lot (3-4 books a year) but I could not get my eyes off this book until I finished it. Great story and I was also very impressed by the research done behind each character. A must read if you like the genre.
