Rating: 3 stars
Summary: It is a fast-paced thriller
Review: A friend of mine gave me this book and I picked it up since I needed a faster-paced read in the midst of moving. This book is definitely a fast-paced thriller ~~ you can't put it down.

With events beginning with a bombing in a Georgetown restaurant, Kirk Macgrevor begins the hunt for the killers and finds a conspiracy between the Japanese and unidentified sources in the White House ~~ and with the countdown of a space ship in Japan looming, Macgrevor races against time to find the killers. He writes to keep you on your toes ~~ and I thoroughly enjoyed it even though the book has left me with more questions than answers ~~ as if the last few chapters were written in a haste and no answers to be found. That is why I rate this book a 3 star ~~ something was missing.

Other than that, it is an enjoyable read. It's a great summer read ~~ it's a thriller unlike others.

Summary: Very Unrealistic
Review: I have read all of Hagberg's books and unfortunately this one is not as good as the others. It goes into the realm of too unrealistic for a thriller. This story is definitely not on par with Ludlum and Cussler.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Good - but a little slow through the middle
Review: This is my first experience with David Hagberg. The book was good though I found it a little slow through the middle. The incident at the beginning was well written and had my hopes up for a continuing excitement level. This however tapered off somewhat through the middle of the book and then picked up with the last 1/3 when the story starts moving fairly fast.

Overall good book - I'd recommend it to others and would read other Hagberg titles.

Also: My copy (paperback) of the book fell apart. The cover came off and pages broke out of the binding.
