review 1: If you enjoy the Steve Hamilton Alex McKnight series, I suspect you will also enjoy this story. (I have no concrete reasons for the comparison; but, there is something about the feel and tone of the story.) It is a simple tale that quickly turns into a complicated mystery - with much history behind it. It starts with a murder, a code word, and a key - and becomes so much more. I was disappointed to see that this is the only book with this character as I feel this could easily be turned into a series - as the main character and his two sidekicks have much potential for future adventure. I will most likely look into other books by this author in the hopes that it is as much the writer as the story and characters.

I thought it was ok. I stuck with it and read the entire book but several times I almost quit.

Couldn't get into it. Didn't gab my interest.
