The Tudor Deception is a Ben Hope motion thriller set across the age outdated thriller of King Richard III and the Princes within the Tower.
When an historian dies and a bomb meant for Ben leaves a younger girls with a lacking leg, Ben is decided to deal out some justice to the culprits.
This story takes Ben on a scenic tour round Britain and Europe on a path which started 500 years in the past. Whereas studying it I recalled a few of my very own historical past classes and fascination with the period concerned. I appreciated the concept of the hyperlinks to the trendy day which allowed our hero to have his story. A few of my favorite elements concerned the Hells Angels bikers and it introduced a little bit of humour to interrupt up the heavy motion scenes.
It has been some time since I final picked up a Ben Hope story and it has jogged my memory to look out for extra books within the sequence.
