Well ... really far-fetched. In the epilogue Thor also writes himself what he has come up with anything.
But no matter ... what came out, is an action-packed thriller and faster. Harvath - an ex-CIA agent - machine accidentally a car bombing in Paris and rescues a scientist. Later it turns out that this just examined those above sura for the American president. He should find them with the help of a first edition of Don Quixote, a Kryptierautomatens of Thomas Jefferson and all other possible Plunder. Parallel to this is another CIA agent - Ozbek - on the investigation into a murder case in which a survivor claimed to have been a spy for the FBI, who deny that, however. Then more radical Islamists a role to play, who want to prevent the uncovering of Surat in order to continue their struggle against the decadent West can and a renegade CIA hit man who has become Muslim and murders for the Islamists.
Despite the many storylines of the novel is never confusing. He reserves from start to finish his exciting reading and one wonders again what may happen. Somewhat predictably about the book is the one that moderately to not at all heroic and patriotic actions erfolgsgewöhnte Harvarths; and that on the contrary, constantly successful actions of former CIA killer. He actually creates everything he makes himself, is in between even virtuous, and not murder, but creates at the end of all the keys that are needed to find the Sure to bring in. The end is very sobering; not winning the wicked, but read for yourself ...
As I said, that book reads quickly and exciting and you've spent a few interesting hours in the train on the way to work (or where you can read whatever). The Patriotic the title comes in the book does not really to bear and moderate actions of the protagonist Harvarths also is not worth 100 -ig for the hero. But still better than average: 5 stars.
