Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I picked up this book after reading a review in the Chicago Tribune that said it was "Ludlumesque" in its pacing and detail and compared the writing to John le Carre, Tom Clancy and Len Deighton. The review was correct. It's nice now and then to find a relative unknown writer who writes with such passion. Obviously Beres knows the region and Chernobyl details and was able to put it together into an engaging thriller. The characters in the book really draw the reader in. Beres' biography indicates he has the nuclear experience via a government job. I like thrillers, mysteries and romance novels and highly recommend this book.
