Fun Reading
This is a wonderful mystery/action book, populated with the author's usual array of quirky characters. It has lots of action, empathetic characters, and a timely story line dealing with corporate ne'er do wells getting their comeuppance. The lean writing provides sufficient detail without bogging the action down. And it's funny!
