My Review
Let me start by saying this is not a book I can recommend. It's well written and very well produced.
This is a thriller that thrills. It has likeable protagonists who you can easily like and you'll want to follow their exploits. It's got "driven" people, people on a mission, very good bad guys, and lots of likeable people in between. As I said it's very well put together and I really enjoyed listening to it until the end of the last chapter.
So what was wrong with it. Simply put, the ending.
It's like half a book. The plot of the story does not end or even reach a good climax. It simply stops at a point where the plot is on a downer. This left me with a real bad taste in my mouth.
