Review - Judas Goat, 05 The
Fast moving with some snappy dialogue. Certainly not a memorable book, nor one you'd recommend to your grandmother.

| Notes: | Mr. Dixon hired Spencer to track down the members of a terrorist organization that bombed a restaurant and killed his family in London. Parker puts an add in the paper asking for info, and several members of the gang come to his hotel to kill him. He shoots them, then follows another member of the organization, a woman named Kathie, to several cities in Europe. He asks his friend Hawk to come help. Kathie leads them to Paul the head of the organization. Paul realizes that Spencer and Hawk would be hard to kill, so he delivers to them Kathie (alive) and the last two of the bombers (dead). This completes Spencer's contract with Dixon, but he realizes that Paul is up to something bigger. Dixon gives his OK for Spencer and Hawk to keep going. Kathie switches sides and helps them. They track Paul to the Olympics in Montreal and discover he's going to shoot athletes on the medal platform. They stop him and wipe out his organization. Kathie kills Paul. |
