This was my first book by this Author. A friend who recycles his books gave this to me over the summer. I started it around 2nd week of August..then I had to put it down due to school starting. I picked it back up over the Labor Day holiday weekend and could not put it down! I liked the pace, the short chapters, the descriptive geographic locations with a real focus on detail. This type of book that spans countries and continents are among my favorite reads. The print was not too small either so it aided in the reading speed. If you love a mystery of a grand scale, this is a great read. I will now seek to read his others books.
Happy reading...open your mind and try something new each time you pick up a book. Finally, the last few pages talks about the current situation that Journalists experience currently in Russia. It reflected on some of the deaths over the years when a dedicated Journalist seeks out stories that is not popular with the Kremlin. Sad, but yet interesting.
