Oct 08, 2014 Jacqie rated it liked it. This is the first historical thriller I've read by Greg Iles. I've read some of his modern thrillers and think that he's one of the better writers in that genre. Looking at his bibliography, it looks like Black Cross is his second book. And I think this feels like it was written by an author still learning his craft.
