review 1: This book was horrible. It read like an over extemporized script of a bad movie with a plot twist that was predictable and boring. It took me two weeks to get through this tedious excuse for a novel and I actually stopped caring about what was going to happen next around chapter 17. At this point I was forcing myself to get through the chapters and often found myself putting the book down to browse magazines and catalogs. Go ahead and read it if you like crime novels, but this is not very interesting in my opinion. ONE STAR
review 2: Outsourcing is both how Dan lost his job and the source of a loophole he plans to exploit in the security system at the bank where he was recently contracted to architect (not program) a new security system. After months of job hun
... moreting, Dan is backed into a corner without income and without benefits. Engaging old friends and colleagues from the software industry to rob untraceable cash from the deposit boxes of a local gangster, Dan plots an impenetrable heist with the exception of the human factor that threatens to throw the characters into a chaotic scramble for self-preservation. Full of revenge seeking and double motives, this novel should please those that enjoy the drama of a carefully planned and poorly executed bank robbery. less
