Recovering from a gun shot wound to the stomach received at the end
of “The Nearest Exit” Milo Weaver is glad to be back with his
wife and stepdaughter. He values his family even more after his
latest foray into the murky world of espionage and the Department of
Tourism.
At the end of the
last book, the Chinese infiltrated the Department of Tourism and
killed 33 agents. The department was almost wiped out. Milo’s
friend and former boss, Alan Drummond, was head of the department, and
he can’t let the assassinations go. He disappears on a mission and
Weaver has to go after him.
This book has a very
complex plot and is not as readable as the previous books. It takes
concentration to keep all the characters straight. I think the author
does a good job with the moral problems Milo faces in this book,
however, the rationale for the action is sometimes murky. I was
disappointed in the ending. The resolution was never really clear. If
you enjoyed the first two books, you may want to finish the saga with
this one.
I received this book
from Net Galley for this review.
