Great book, but VERY long. The paperback is 706 pages!!! The story is far too complicated to condense, but the FBI agent and the detective were fun to read about. But it does go on and on and on and ON. Still, if you're down to your last book and it's snowing outside, it's a good one to have on hand.

    Story about members of a hunting club plotting a nuclear attack on American cities to insight the United States to retaliate against Muslims, who would be suspected of setting off the bombs.Detective John Corey and his wife investigate. Excellent premise, but disappointing storyline making it a drawn out read.

    So why does the hero (that's principal male character in a novel) have to be likable? My preferred book with Corey in it is "Night Fall". Actually I have followed John Corey and I wouldn't necessarily say I like him but I certainly find him riotously irreverent and dedicated.
