A simple enough story. The book got of a good start. Two of the men, brothers in fact, were headhunted, one a marine the other an FBI agent. The third man recommended himself. I thought the story would proceed at a similar pace. Instead, the author slowed down everything by writing a whole load of rubbish, trying too hard to be suspenseful. Quoting a line from the book itself, the author succeeded in, "telling a awful lot and nothing at all at the same time."
Many times the book is testing my patience. Eventually I decided to skip all the middle garbage and go on to the action at the end, and I feel I didn't miss anything at all. Luckily the action is passable, but I still want to punch those reviewers inside the book.
