I'm surprised that it took me so long to finish this book. I guess this just isn't my type of book.
The book is split up into two main POV's: the good guys (Sarah, FBI...) and the bad guys (Baumann). I actually found the bad guys' POV much more interesting than the wild goose chase at the other end. But even that interest wasn't enough to keep me from putting the book down. Only the drive of completing this book to start another one finally pushed me to finish this book.
Perhaps another reason why I liked the bad guys' POV because Baumann was more developed in this story. Sarah Cahill, the protagonist, was a typical, let's-save-the-world type character.
I have mixed feelings about the technical aspects in this book. On one hand, they were very informative and I always like to learn when reading. On the other hand, they were sometimes tedious to read and boring.
There was really only one part in the book that had me interested, one twist. True, I did see it coming, but it was nevertheless, a nice addition to an otherwise, typical story.
Perhaps I had an unreasonably high expectation for this book because it was written by Joseph Finder, an author I had previously enjoyed immensely, but this book just wasn't for me. However, I do recommend this book to anyone else who enjoys crime fighters with a touch of bombs.
