Summary: Imaginative story overcomes flaws
Review: Thomas Perry is a very imaginative writer. The character, indeed the whole concept of a guide who helps people hide is unique and therefore interesting to one who spends a lot of time reading suspense and mystery novels. My only complaint is that Jane is too good - the reader never doubts that she will get out of any jam, so the suspense is somewhat deflated. But the writing and the story more than make up for this.As far as the presentation of the Mafia as a powerful, efficient machine, well, just suspend your disbelief and you'll do fine. It's certainly more interesting than the myth of the invincible US military we are subjected to in countless boring novels. I'm looking for more Thomas Perry right now...

Summary: GREAT BOOK!
Review: While this is my first book by this author, I was immediately caught up in the first chapter and could not put it down. Very suspensful and there is enough background within the novel that I did not feel lost by not having read the previous books. I look forward to reading the first books now and recommend this book to anyone who enjoys thriller/mystery/suspense stories
