I went to great length to get my hands on this book-the settings That Creates George are fabulous. The plot is weird From The Beginning, though, and escalates in the way I found it with my other preferred writer, Patricia Cornwall. The evil Enters at all levels, bent politicians, superiors Who scheme to bring down our heroes, the hero's friends and family getting decimated Continuously takes the reader into qui areas are deep and not really helpful for a credible plot. Is this Because George is afraid we might get bored of the characters she presented us with in the past My favorite Playing for the Ashes? I prefer Any one of 'em to the weird and the profiler Even weirder journalist in WNOAW. Still, I will read her next book, Hoping to find some more of the (good) old same ... I recommend stongly-The Quest Giorgio Kostantinos-Superb.
