Andrew Gross – Reckless (Harper, £6.99)****
The world of high finance is ruthless and violent, as security consultant Ty Hauck finds out. When an old friend and the whole family are murdered, it turns into a personal crusade to find the killers, which takes him to London and around Europe. Naomi Blum, a treasury investigator, is also on the trail. Together, they uncover a conspiracy which could shatter world markets and puts them in danger, but the job has to be done. Can Ty gain revenge? An excellent read and I strongly recommend it.

Adaobi Tricia Nwaubani – I Do Not Come To You By Chance (Phoenix Fiction, £7.99) ****
Brought up to value education above all, Kingsley finds this won’t find him work nor pay the hospital bills for his father. As the eldest son, it’s his duty to provide for the family, so he turns to his uncle, a fraudster. Kingsley discovers a gift for scam e-mails promising gullible Westerners untold wealth. He achieves an enviable lifestyle, but his tainted money isn’t enough to earn him the love of a woman. Witty, warm and recommended!
