well written, good story fell apart in the sun!!!

Great, tightly paced and extremely tense plot Many of Adam Hall's novels are now out of print

compelling, entralling, page turner, superbly written, superb plot none for me

Main idea is interesting, although this is let down in execution. Poorly plotted & developed. Contrived motive & ending.

Fairly well written with enough twists and turns to keep the reader interested Some plot holes
