This was a high octane thriller. I liked the way it was written and enjoyed the fast pace of the story. I found the main character a little detached and couldn't warm to her. Overall it was a solid read.

I adored this book and it’s main protagonist Hayley Chill, it was a page turning addictive read with a cadence and rhythm to the prose that was genuinely engaging.

The story itself, a political and moral minefield, was utterly gripping, as Hayley leaves the army and enters the hallowed halls of the White House, where she uncovers a plot against the President and ends up in isolated hot water.

The setting is brilliantly described, the plot is taut and clever, Hayley is unique and strangely likeable with her odd demeanour and her extensive experience. It is so much fun, definitively unpredictable, flooring me at the end with a cleverly done resolution.

Definitely one to watch in 2020, if you like your political thrillers layered, intelligent and ultimately authentic then Deep State is for you. Here’s wishing Hayley Chill many more adventures.

Highly Recommended.

Thanks to Netgalley for this ARC.

I really enjoyed reading this book, and felt it was a very good political thriller. Very likeable main character who uncovers a plot against The President and has to depend on and use all her skills and resources to stop this plot and bring those responsible to justice. She doesn’t know who to trust, who is involved and for me this made for an excellent and thrilling read. The story was very fast paced, and I thought flowed together seamlessly. Very VERY surprising and shocking ending that I did not see coming and a brilliant final twist.

Well thought out story by the author and I loved this.
