The violence of the South American drug trade has served as the backdrop for many bestsellers, but few match the intensity of Panama Red.
it’s the first book in Edward’s Dirk Lasher series and there is plenty of heavy-duty action here. Definitely enough to sate readers with military fiction genre appetites, but there’s no supercilious over-thinking.
Panama Red isn’t a novel in which a few heavily armed soldiers can just strut into a heavily armed compound and achieve their mission with drawn-out firefights and unrealistic fatalities. Edward first and foremost gives us realism and drenches his narrative in many shades of ambiguity. Clearly making his point about how deeply the roots of corruption are embedded in the soil of South America and the military effort to curtail it.
Central to Panama Red is Dirk Lasher who is smart and resilient when faced with the reality that intelligence-gathering is not enough. He’s involved in a deniable dirty war operating beyond US borders and here Edward’s orchestrates conventional action sequences terrifically well to create a penetrating atmosphere of nihilist ruthlessness that cleverly heightens the tension and sense of uncertainty.
A superb start to an adrenalin laced new military thriller series Panama Red can hold its own with the genre best with particular appeal to fans of Tom Clancy and Brad Thor. It is recommended without reservation!

Let me let you into a secret. You are unlikely to become a rich writer. And before you start waving Harry Potter and Game of Thrones under my nose, please scroll back to the word ‘unlikely’.
