Thank you NetGalley and HarperCollins Publishers for this arc.

I got up from the bed yesterday morning, fed the dog, made some coffee, had a bowl of Cheerios and opened this one up. A little intimidating at first -- it had 130 chapters! Okay, that should make it easier to put down here and there to deal with life (dog-walking, laundry, housework, grocery shopping meals... you know, Saturday stuff).

So I started reading and reading and reading and reading. I had another bowl of Cheerios for lunch and just left the dog in the backyard. The laundry stayed piled up. The house is still dirty. There's no fresh food in the refrigerator. I only slowed my reading twice, once when the little "low battery" notice popped up on my Kindle. I stopped to detangle my longest USB cable and plugged it in so I could keep reading. Second slow down was due to the obnoxious and noisy dog wanting her dinner. Nearly 12 hours from starting the book, I was finally able to put it down. I had another bowl of Cheerios and called it dinner.

My butt is still numb, but I've quit drooling on myself and I think my eyes can focus well enough to post a review now.... twenty-six hours after I started reading.

This was a GREAT read for me. The story was wonderfully complex and convoluted. All the characters fully developed and most were relatable. I found the main characters, Naia Thulin and Mark Hess, both intriguing and fascinating. The political and social themes of the story were deftly woven. The author is apparently the creator of some TV program I've never heard of, but I do hope he keeps writing novels.

I really enjoyed this book, the characters were well developed. It had a very interesting and unexpected twist. I was sure I had this book all figured out but then it twisted into something entirely different. The ending is totally awesome. I would be interested in reading more of this author. My thanks to Netgalley, the publisher and the author for an advance copy of this book in exchange for a fair and honest review.

What an amazing thriller! I loved the character development and stayed up way past my bedtime to find out what was going to happen next. I highly recommend this author.
