Summary: Cover tributes are wrong; amateurish attempt with bad climax
Review: This novel has nuggets of interest, but the story and action feel contrived at every turn. It has the aura of someone trying to write a good mystery story rather than the aura of a good story. Like a movie in which the director's gimmicks are visible, the authors' mechanics are visible on page after page. The tributes "quoted" on the cover are misleading. This is not an enjoyable read, and the ending was like a last straw insult to the dogged reader who persevered and read the whole book. Ouch.
