  Quite good

  Nice book, written in the usual style of Jeffery Deaver. The author has apparently spent some time trying to understand the world of MMORPG and of the internet in general, and that is quite commendable, especially considered the good results.

  Jeffery Deaver took on a more unconventional route with this book, dealing with cyberspace. I am not a fan of computer crimes and stuff like that, so perhaps i am not being fair by giving it a 3 star rating. There were still twists and turns that I have come to expect from Jeffery Deaver. I am also very impressed with how he surreptitiously managed to sow seeds of the plot of his next novel in the one before. I like how the romantic side of the book is notching it up, and I am waiting eagerly for the next Kathryn Dance thriller.
