Very intriguing plot, kept me up very late one night. I'd rate it higher but for two things 1-lenghty asides, like random poem, some mention of NY Attorney General that have no impact on the plot and 2-little tiny things that don't make sense...Mark while staying at Emily's drives away in his car, but he has no car there, she picked him up....
I do like how all the subplots wound up. And I was very impressed with the depth of the knowledge of the author - chemistry, gambling, football, torture WOW
would read and purchase another book by this author for sure

Cannot put this book down! It is an outstanding suspense thriller that is addictive. The characters and scenarios are both fascinating and realistic. As the suspense ratchets up, unexpected twists and turns keep the reader engaged. Great book, best I've read in a long time, highly recommend!
