review 1: Have you ever read a book and the almost the entire time thought "Why is this main character so STUPID?!" That sort of applies here. I wanted to like Morgan - and sometimes I did - but mostly I kept wondering what the heck she was doing. Of course, if I were in her situation, I'd likely act similarly. I suppose to sum up I'd have to say I liked Syndrome more, but this was still interesting/engaging.
review 2: I rather enjoyed this novel. The central character was believable and the references to documentary filmaking accurate (I was a doc maker). Secondary characters were less well dealt with, but the mad doctor antagonist was sufficiently greedy and insane, without being a stereotype, to maintain interest in the conflict. Dialogue was good. The premise - witho... moreut spoiling the plot - was topical, interesting and well defined: I was left in no doubt what was happening although the twists were fairly easy to guess. I think the novel would have benefitted from a sub-plot or two apart from the obvious one. All in all a nicely paced thriller with some small plot holes, but enjoyable to read. So, if you like well-written thrillers and don't mind a a lack of sub-plots, then I can recommend this read. less
