Yep, I, too, am a huge fan of Preston and Child. Or maybe "was" is a better word. Lately, they've been dwelling too much on serial killings, which I do not find entertaining at all. However, as far as this solo effort by Lincoln Child goes, it is a sham! The author should be embarrassed for writing this one.

Just don't miss the absolute fun and sheer excitement of reading this one. A total edge-of-your-seat, can't-put-it-down, thrilling, and awesome pageturner.

Don't wait for the movie--as I'm sure there will be one--enjoy it now!
