About "The Blue Nowhere"

Nicely written book about a 2 opposing hackers. It has quite correct security language and in this sense doesn't get on the nerves of us people who know a bit about computers. If you are a programmer or a computer security person you'll know what I mean :)

[Michael Carlson · Rating 3 out of 5]

One out of three ain't bad. This is a collection of three (abridged) suspense novellas by the always-great Jeffery Deaver. Without realizing it at first I'd already read the second and third offering. But the first story was new to me and was great. Deaver loves to pull the rug out from under you in his stories. You (and the protagonist) KNOW where the story is going and who the bad guy is ... and then you don't.
