Customer Reviews

Well Written, Fast Moving and a Good "Spy" Story.

I enjoyed Mr. Pease's writing style in this well put together intelligence "spy" novel. The book offers a very realistic glimpse of what we can only imagine as the inner workings of our top intelligence networks and what they are pursumably up to. Well put together and thought out story line and plot. Suspenseful. Possibly unrealistic at times but not in any way unbelievable for the reader in the middle of the event. A fast read and one that you do not want to put down.
