I had never heard of Shagan and I found this book at a sale. It is everything a superthriller should be. You can judge a great book in my house by how many times the wife says "You need to turn that light off and get to sleep, you have to go to work in the morning." I'm now looking for the movie they made from this book, with George C Scott and Marlin Brando!!! Great!!
