‘Rod Besley’s experience as a high-level transaction lawyer is on full display in this second gripping novel featuring the fictional lawyer Tom Jackson, and his sharp instincts and legal expertise shine through in this fast-paced legal thriller.
Whether Tom is drafting legal documents, navigating partnerships or stepping up as an action hero, he is a standout character.
In his second rapid-fire novel, Rod has also shifted the spotlight to the underworld, Interpol and hired security firms, with Tom Jackson at times working behind the scenes as events unfold around him.
The story takes us through many beautifully described international locations, and Rod’s eye for detail, be it in an underground railway station, to an Egyptian marketplace or to a high-end London legal boardroom or safe house, is matched by his depictions of his characters.
Congratulations Rod, another absolute page-turner!’

‘Beware Your Enemy is a cracker read! Rod Besley has excelled in this fast-paced sequel to his first book. The action is full on and unexpected and held me in a suspense-filled grip. Ruthless assassins carry out commissions for money launderers while being thwarted repeatedly by the hero and his sophisticated support group.
This is a bird’s eye view of the world of high finance and major property deals. The hero Tom Jackson, a lawyer turned crime fighter, tidies up his unfinished business in true James Bond fashion…. right down to the glamorous women! A rollicking exciting read that will hold the reader enthralled from the very start.’
