While there were definitely times this book felt a bit repetitive and wildly unrealistic, I really enjoyed it for the most part and reading it felt like watching one of those popcorn action movies full of explosions and plot holes. You definitely can't take it too seriously, but sometimes that's a good thing and it definitely was here. I was invested in the story right from the beginning and never lost interest even when I had to scoff a bit. If you like a good thriller you don't have to take too seriously, you will likely enjoy this.

Compared to a recent Linwood Barclay novel, this one was far better. The narrative moved along smoothly and was pretty interesting.
