review 1: Anothe on point story from Russell Blake. He is quickly becoming a fav of mine. His stories are insightful about what is going on in the world today. Wake up n smell the Kool Aid people. This shit is for real. This story follws Dr. Steven Archers quest to bring down a Wall Street criminal who has a history of manipulating the stock market. Big bad Mr Griffen has the sanction of the Us Govermemt up to the highest levels to control,manipulate and basically steal money from average joes to fund and wash all sorts of international criminal activity. He is rich powerful and convinced he is invinsible until Dr A turns the tide and puts him and the financial fund he runs under the microscope. Dr. A uses the internet too his advantage with the help of some crazy hacker genius... morees aka the three horseman X Files style. Murder and mayhem insue. Dr. A flees the US to pursue the truth and bring furthermevidence to light to drop on Griffens game.All around another example of Russell Blake ability to pull you in and set a fairly blistering pace of action and plot development. in a world kf so many ediocore story tellers he has a fresh ability to write compelling characters. Check out his Jet series if you want some futher examples of his talent.
review 2: Like all mystery suspense novels, this one kept me intrigued all through it. It’s evident the author did his research and learned about the stock market and ways those on Wall Street can manipulate it to line their pockets. This information is layered in small doses so as not to bore someone unfamiliar with short calls, offshore accounts, and media manipulation to boost a stock’s performance. It’s also frightening to think those in the U. S. government might’ve had a part in the global recession we’re recovering from.The plot was well thought out and character development done in such a way I looked forward to learning more about the characters as the story unfolded.I had several complaints about the story readers who like Nelson DeMille’s stories will not object too. It moved forward at a lackadaisical pace. A lot of time was spent telling about where the protagonist went to eat and what he ate. There were times I wanted to shake him and make him realize the serious situation he was in that he seemed to be naïve about.All in all, I enjoyed this book by this new author, for me, and look forward to reading his vast selection of other thrillers. less
