Colin Murray – Freelance Editor at Writers’ Services UK writes: “This very competently written thriller has been well researched and thought through. The characters are nicely drawn and the author writes clearly and keeps the pace fast. The Killing Code combines some of the scientific elements of Michael Crichton and some of the barnstorming aspects of Matthew Reilly to hit the adult thriller market spot on.”About the AuthorCraig Hurren has amassed many years of experience as an executive in the pharmaceutical and healthcare industries.
