    This is not a full book. This is just part 1. Better to read it when the second book is finish.

    Could not put it down. A most engaging story line that held many surprises.
  • What a Let Down

    From the authors: “First: thank you for reading this book. Second: our apologies for what is, at least in part, an inconclusive ending.” It’s not inconclusive; it’s unfinished; it’s half a book. Absolutely nothing ties together, and it reads like a random brainstorming session potentially with mind altering substances involved. Unless you’ve died, why release an unfinished work? For true fans on the Pendergast series, you will be disappointed - wait for the actual conclusion to be released before starting this book .

    I would have thought better of these esteemed and well established authors to finish (or half-finish) a book with a sophomoric “TBC”….. I would rather have waited and been treated to the Full Monty at a later date. Now one gets to pony up twice for what should have been one novel.

    I have been a fanatic reader of everything written by Preston & Child - this was the most uneven of their collaborations. I went from struggling to read some sections to being unable to put down the next section. The worse thing was the non-ending - ending. Very unsatisfying.
  • Excellent thriller

    I am a huge fan but this book is really only 1/2 a tale! It abruptly ends with a lame excuse from the authors. This is obviously a way to rip off loyal readers by getting them to pay twice for the same novel!

    Are you kidding me! Half a book and no notice given to the reader! Like Part 1 or something. And full price. Not cool people.
