A typical fast-paced Cook thriller although I was often frustrated with the foolishness of the heroine's actions.

I almost didn't read this book because I saw the movie, but this book has nothing to do with the movie. It was so good, I read it in two days. If you love Robin Cook, this is a must read.

Starts out great, but kinda burns out before the end. Interesting premise, though.

This was the first Robin Cook thriller I've read, but I blazed through it and was hunting for another one from my TBR piles. The book may have been written a couple of decades ago but the subject is still relevant, and Mr. Cook's writing style is descriptive but smooth and coherent. I was delighted to find (somewhere) I have about ten books to look forward to!
