Hi Jade, I do a lot of research but I don't tend to include as much of it as I used to do so in the earlier books as it's not everyone's cup of tea
Tom Wood and 1 other person liked Simon Reindl's review of Traitor (Victor #10):
Traitor by Tom  Wood
"A brilliant Victor tale

Great setup.
Breakneck pace as always, fantastic Victor story. You could read it without the others, having read the series you find the references to his history."
Traitor by Tom  Wood
"Viktor it's back!!

The finest of all anti heroes. Convoluted yet not convoluted. Deep yet shallow. All business, much to his own discomfort"

Quotes by Tom Wood  (?)

“Victor waited until Ozols had passed out of the light before squeezing the trigger with smooth, even pressure. Suppressed gunshots interrupted the early morning stillness. Ozols was hit in the sternum, twice in rapid succession. The bullets were low powered, subsonic 5.7 mm, but larger rounds could have been no more fatal. Copper-encased lead tore through skin, bone, and heart before lodging side by side between vertebrae. Ozols collapsed backward, hitting the ground with a dull thud, arms outstretched, head rolling to one side. Victor melted out of the darkness and took a measured step forward. He angled the FN Five-seveN and put a bullet through Ozols’s temple. He was already dead, but in Victor’s opinion there was no such thing as overkill.”
Tom Wood, The Hunter

“Funny, because the way I see it, the more friends I have, the better I’m doing at life.” “Ah,” Victor said, “but friends can be bought. Enemies are always earned.”
Tom Wood, A Time To Die

“Victor stepped away from the spy hole of the door opposite and raised his gun. He fired, squeezing the trigger ten times in rapid succession, emptying the magazine of exactly half its ammunition. The hotel door was thick, solid pine, but the bullets in the FiveseveN were shaped like rifle rounds and cut through it with barely any loss in velocity. Two heavy objects hit the carpet, one thud after the other. The door creaked in front of him.”
Tom Wood, The Hunter
