It all adds up to one thing: this is definitely a credit-worthy summer read. Perhaps that's what makes it so engaging - and terrifying. There's enough history thrown in that sometimes the events feel entirely plausible. The characters are well formed, flawed and interesting. Hayes has a way of foreshadowing that also keeps the ball rolling. There's an expert pacing to everything that keeps you engaged even when there's no action. I normally don't go for thrillers, but this one is exceptional. ![]() And then it turns into a rip-roaring page-turner. It really lays a foundation so you can understand what makes people who they are. It's interesting - because of the history and insight it provides - but it can be a little dry. The first part of the book sounds and feels like non-fiction. Hayes takes his time setting up the characters and the scenario. ![]() I kept at it because of the warning and I'm very glad I did. I easily could have put it aside those first hours. Before I downloaded the book, I saw where another reviewer warned that it takes about 9 hours to get into it. ![]()
