This is a popcorn read for those who like mild thrillers. It’s not gory or scary in any way, and the story rattles along comfortably enough. It is the 20th book in the Baron series, but I don’t think you need to read these in order; they provide enough context to orient the reader, and really they are plot-driven rather than character-driven. They may do the trick when you need something quick and easy to break a reading slump, or if you’re trying to fill time.
The edition I read had been scanned using OCR, and the OCR had not been corrected—there were goofy typos, misplaced punctuation marks, and distracting line breaks. So I would suggest reading this in print if you can get a hold of a copy.
I’ll probably read more if I happen across them cheaply, but they won’t be a high priority. ( )
