This novel was packed with excitement from beginning to end. International intrigue, spies, murders, assassins, and a vending machine operator! Who knew these would mesh into such a dramatic plot?

The only halfway negative thing I can think of is there were just so many characters, I had trouble keeping up with everyone. But there had to be that many to fulfill the whole storyline. It was my fault if I couldn't keep up with everyone! M.M. Frick did an excellent job with these characters, making them come to life - even the smaller background ones who only showed up once or twice. I could feel who these people were and what motivated them.

The action moves quickly and surprises were around every corner....errrm page turn. I kept trying to find a double agent - oh he's really a bad guy... no he is! I won't tell you if I was right or wrong, but it's a great book to read. Would make an awesome movie as well!
