When the book 1st started, I was uncertain if it was going to be a good one. But in typical James Patterson style, it grabbed me pretty quickly and held me all the way through. Fun, story and lots of intrigue. Easy to stay engaged. Another good one.

At first I wasn’t sure

Not a typical JP thriller. Story left me with wasted time feeling. I don’t recommend it for Patterson fans.

Disappointing

I liked that each step was not predictable. Thereby making a quick decision re the outcome was thwarted.

Story disjointed n over the top scenarios. Not quite up to Mr. Patterson’s standards. Had to suspend reality several times to finish. Ending suggests there may b a Book 2.
Meh.

I was very engaged in the story until the end. I stayed up to finish the book. The end was weak and unsatisfying. I can’t believe I traded sleep to finish this book.

Not worth reading
