Publisher's summary

Chemistry grad student Kevin Hamilton is sure his advisor Michael Ward's death in a suspicious fire was no accident. The young PhD candidate received a cryptic message from Ward just before the fatal blaze - a warning that their recent collaboration on a supposedly failed experiment had actually brought about one of the most important discoveries of the century: Adamas, a chemical process worth billions, and one with the potential to topple entire industries. Now on the run with his girlfriend, Erica, Kevin must elude relentless assassins long enough to protect the top-secret information, thwart a global conspiracy, and save their lives before time runs out.

Good story. Unfortunate narration.

I'm often told that I'm too generous when I write a review - and I rarely write a review. If this book had been even a little less engaging, I would have returned it in the first half hour. The narrator's inflection - especially at the end of sentences is so distracting that it makes it difficult to follow the story. Good book, unfortunate narration.

Not one Of Boyd Morrison's best

I typically really love Boyd Morrison's books. I've read all day of Tyler Locke series and a couple others. I didn't like the run for your life story line on this one. I really didn't care for the person's style of reading. often he sounded mechanical and accents were bad, especially on the Jamaican guy.
