As a fan of Preston and Child's Pendergast series, I was really looking forward to this new series featuring Gideon Crew. Alas, it's a bit too lightweight and, well, silly in places. Felt like something I'd read in an airport then accidentally on purpose leave behind ... Hope the series improves with the second book.
