Product description
Review
'Full-on and adrenalin-fuelled to the point of making a James Bond movie look sedate... At the helm is a heroine who would put Bond in his place. Definitely a character of interest and one to watch' ― The Sun
‘I loved Safe From Harm, a thriller that had me in a choke-hold from its great opening line to the white-knuckle climax. Sam Wylde is a hero for our times. And she kicks major butt. RJ Bailey has created a serial hero to rival Jack Reacher himself’ -- Tony Parsons

- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 2 July 2017Format: Kindle EditionVerified PurchaseOh how I loved this book. This will most definitely be on my Outstanding Books of The Year list.
A fast paced, thrill a minute, edge-of-the-seat glimpse into the world of a female Close Protection Officer.
I had to read this in short bursts because reading it sent me into fright or flight mode with adrenaline levels so high, I thought a heart attack might be imminent!
Not for the faint hearted or those with an aversion to reading about women in dangerous situations who know how to fight their way out of trouble and are more than capable of getting the upper hand in violent confrontations.
The protagonist Samantha (Sam) Rae Wylde is a former army medic with service in Afghanistan. There are occasional flashbacks to that time which add to Samantha's back story and we find out more about her life and how she became a PPO, although I suspect there is much more to learn about this character and we will in subsequent series (can't wait!)
With a personal tragedy behind her and a young teenage daughter to care for, Samantha becomes employed by a rich Asian family who might have links to some dangerous groups.
With plots, counter-plots and characters who aren't all they seem the story moves very swiftly from one dilemma to another with Sam right at the centre of it all.
I loved Sam's humour, and wry observational style throughout and bits of the witty remarks and come-backs made me laugh out loud at times.
I hated the author though for leaving some unfinished business at the end of this book but it makes me look forward to the next in the series, so that I can be scared out of my wits again!
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 31 July 2017Format: Kindle EditionVerified PurchaseFast paced enjoyable read. Easy to identify and empathise with the lead characters. Plenty going on without being too difficult to follow. Looking forward to next title.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 21 March 2017Format: PaperbackVerified PurchaseAs a die hard Jack Reacher fan (and like all die hard Jack Reacher fans, I consider the casting of the midget Tom Cruise in the films to be beyond a joke, shame on you Lee Child for letting it happen) it came as a refreshing change to discover a full-on, sexy, take no prisoners heroine in the form of Sam Wylde. Reminded me of Modesty Blaise! This book is a genuine page turner, so much so that I was regularly getting an earful of "when are you going to turn your light out" from my trouble and strife! A great plot with constant surprises along the way - I highly recommend this book. Can't wait for the next one which is promised. The famous Jack Reacher strapline is 'Men want to be him, women want to be with him'. Well I wouldn't mind a ration of passion with Sam Wylde. She's as hot as it gets!
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 24 July 2019Format: Kindle EditionVerified PurchaseVery readable book, making it page turning in parts, good introduction to the characters which I suspect will appear in the future books
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 25 July 2017Format: Kindle EditionVerified PurchaseGood read with an excellent story line. Ending leaves you for e conclusion.
Presume this is the first in a Trilogy of books.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 8 December 2016Format: Kindle EditionVerified PurchaseExciting plot and very well drawn characters. I loved all the back story and personal life of the main character and felt I understood her motivation and I want to read more about her. The information given about the life of a personal protection officer was all new to me and i had no idea that women are so important in this profession. I loved the way she looked at the world in colours which indicated the danger of a given situation such as red for danger or yellow for fairly safe. She applied these colours to her personal life and especially to the life of her teenage daughter.
This is a well written and fast moving book and I recommend it to all.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 7 March 2017Format: Kindle EditionVerified PurchaseThis was soooo damn good. From the first page you know it's going to grip you, and it did not disappoint. The main character is just fantastic with her life experiences. I strongly advice people get this book ...Today!! I loved the ending because I'm now eagerly awaiting the second book to follow this independent woman on a mission.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 2 August 2017Format: Kindle EditionVerified PurchaseA really exciting read and with all good books one where you really cared about the main character.
