This is one of Robin Cook's best books. I think it's his "break-out book - cementing his place as one of the best writers of thrillers in our time.

Is this book Robin Cooks best? Not by a long shot! What was interesting about this book though, was to see Robin Cook write a book that was out of his normal arena. He normally writes medical mystery novels, which is not the case with this particular book. As always though, he presents his story well and leaves the mind asking questions until the very end.
