Decent thriller about a doctor without borders MD pulled into an international battle in which competing U.S. forces are the primary agitators, and the neutral Swiss become very partisan. ( )

Convoluted; at times difficult to follow.Ransom's search for Emma and his involvement/killing in his various search/escape attempts is often over the top. ( )

This was a gorgeous reading. I liked this espionage story very much. All major countries as US, Russia and England are involved, but nobody would grant someone else the success. Jonathan's wife is an agent but it let me guessing until the last page for whom she is working. Firstly, Jonathan couldn't believe what his 'wife' is up to, therefore he isn't trying to help her than to stop her. It was a breathtaking reading until the very last page. ( )

Há menos de seis meses, o respeitado cirurgião da ONG Médico sem Fronteiras Jonathan Ransom teve sua vida drasticamente transformada.

Durante uma escalada na Suíça, ele e a sua esposa, Emma, foram surpreendidos por uma tempestade. Jonathan acreditou que a mulher tivesse morrido, mas logo descobriu que ela escondia um passado obscuro. Emma é uma agente secreta e não está morta. Agora, atuando num lugar remoto da África, o Dr. Ransom tira uma folga de suas atividades humanitárias para ir a Londres, convidado a dar uma palestra num congresso de medicina. Assim que chega ao hotel de luxo onde ficará hospedado, é abordado por um desconhecido que lhe dá instruções para se encontrar com Emma. ( )

This is a good fast-action read. All the action takes place in a couple of days with travel over half of europe and a wide cast of characters. Very complex relationships between characters.Unfortunately I did not read the prior book "Rules of Deception." A lot pieces of history from "Deception" are missing which diminishes the story line. Similarly there are too many loose ends at the end - obviously there will be a sequel.I'v read several of his other books and I don't think this one is up to par but that is probably I didn't read the first of the series.I recommend you read "Deception" first.
