This is the first of a series of sci-fi thrillers starring Travis Chase, ex-con and ex-cop. It is unimaginably silly, with a death count to rival actual wars, and yet … I was somewhat intrigued. I do love a good time-travel story, which is part of what’s going on here. But I won’t be reading the rest of the series as life is too short. Especially if Travis Chase, wearing his “invisible suit”, has you in his sights. If you are looking for a fast-paced, well-written, science fiction thriller, I recommend you pick up this book. I picked it up (the audio edition) mainly because it was available on my library's site, and wasn't disappointed. There's a certain amount of violence, (and one scene of torture, which skated just to the edge of my comfort zone) but it is not glorified or described any further than it must be to convey the scene. Current day politics and future technology revolve around a main character with an intriguing backstory and an uncertain future. In short, it kept me intrigued from intro to end. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
"Audacious and terrifying--and uncannily believable." --Lee Child New York Times bestselling author of the Jack Reacher series, Lee Child, was blown away by The Breach--and you will be, too! A novel of unrelenting suspense and nonstop surprises, The Breach immediately rockets author Patrick Lee into the V.I.P. section of the thriller universe. A treat for Jack Bauer ("24") fans and "X-Files" aficionados, it is a white-knuckle roller-coaster ride that combines the best of Dean Koontz and Michael Crichton with a healthy dollop of Indiana Jones thrown into the mix--the perfect secret agent/government conspiracy/supernatural adventure.

And then story just gains more and more momentum - entire plot looks like it could have been Fringe TV show crossed with XCOM/Xenonauts/Delta Green/.
And while I was constantly wondering how come that our hero is so capable and adaptable final twist (which was completely unexpected) came around. And now I need to read rest of the series :)
Recommended to all fans of X-files/Fringe and action stories. ( )
