Chilling suspense. Adorable, humor packed description. It is amazing to overlook how Nelson DeMille connected every incident from the beginning to the last page to shape up the plot. The reader gets to go a short trip to plum island, Gold coast and Long isle. John Corey's portrait becomes that of an injured indolent slow learner cop in the beginning and in the swift progress of the story the reader can see him taking control of the events behaving whose status suddenly upgrades to a "know-everything". Witty, thrilling and elegant. A must read.

Could be described as a handbook to guerrilla warfare. Gives A to Z lessons on how to begin,organize and wage a guerrilla warfare. I must admit that the book is a compilation of the so called Guerrilla tactics which are completely irrelevant and useless in the present scenario. One can also find heavy doses of Marxism protruding out even in lines of technical description. This book can't be perfect, for if it were how did che got executed by a drunken Bolivian army man ;) (he could have implemented the techniques and won over Bolivia)
