" Slow to start, but soon picked-up. Great moderator and plot, Surprises at every corner. "

" This story keeps you involved and you won't want to put it down. A real page turner if you will, full of intrigue and after you get involved there are lots of twists and turns. The narration was great every word. The story has a few surprises and an ending that I didn't expect "

" This was the mystery group's May selection. I started out annoyed with it. If your new number generates a lot of unwanted calls from the previous user, wouldn't you just change it ASAP? You wouldn't try to find this unknown person especially when you determined she was a prostitute. But then there wouldn't be a book, right? Connelly kept throwing enough crumbs out that you wanted to read it to the end. I did figure out who was behind it, but not all the whys and hows. I would recommend it. "

" The story is good. It is about a scientist who works day & night in a company to build the world's 1st molecular computer and then, thr is 'someone' who wants him to give up his dream project (leave the job) as the 'someone' would get a huge amt of money from the opp. party company. The 'someone' is the suspense for which the scientist goes thru a lot of police enquiries as he gets false accused for murdering a women who is an escort. U can start guessing the 'someone' half way thru the book. I bet ur guess will b wrong ;) I think, thr r better books than this book ... though! "

" A decent enough Connelly standalone. Not as good as The Lincoln Lawyer, but enjoyable nonetheless. "

" The main character is the head of a scientific company; yet he is unbelievable and naive. Connelly's books with H. Bosch are much better. "
- Mary, 1/20/2014
-
" Who wrote this book for Connelly? It is far below the Bosch series. Bizarre plot, unbelievable characters. Not worth the time. "

" Hang on to your hats. This story is a real page turner. Henry Pierce began his career as a research scientist, building his own company throughout the years. He finally hits on a major medical discovery and needs to find an investor to fund further research. He finds an investor, but it comes with a high price and a very surprising ending. "

" This is the first Michael Connelly book I have read. It is outside my comfort zone but not uncomfortably so, but diffentely written by a man. It was boring at first but the further I got into the story the easier it was to understand. Lots of plot twists and turns, just when I thought I had it figured out I didn't and that kept me reading. "

" The book had such a slow start for me, and I really couldn't get into it. I would say the last 1/4 of the book I really got into it, but I had a very hard time enjoying the book at first - I would just not want to pick it up (which is unlike me). "

" Very interesting concept and very intriguing. I enjoyed it a little more than average. "

" Alla fine tutto torna. Ben strutturato. Un Buon Connelly. "

" Ok, so I never actually read this book. But how can it not be awful?!?!? Have you read the back cover? Have you talked to anybody who has read it? "

" Connelly is the perfect anecdote for someone in need of diversion. His crime books are a bit different, and always well-written. "
- Marcy, 10/27/2013

" I liked that book a lot, it was very intriguing and i had a difficulty in putting it down, it's been soo long since I've read such an interesting book "

" This was a good read!! Great plot, kept your interest, it flowed! Not part of the Harry Bosch series, but was still good!!! "

" I always love Connelly's works. But it seems he always does same ending to his every book. Good read, though. "

" I really enjoyed how this story unfolded. This is a good male or female read. I really enjoyed it! "

" Yawn. Couldn't get into the plot. Didn't finish. "

" I don't think this was one of Connelly's better books. The main character does some things that I think would be improbable. It is still a pretty good read. "
- Jim, 7/14/2012
-
" Didn't like this one as much as I have liked the others that I have read by Connelly. Tthat being siad I really enjoyed the Dr. Suess references. I found the story a little far fetched but still found the character interesting. Looking forward to reading another Connelly. "

" I must admit, i bought this book because of the cover. A computer keyboard and a lady's leg cover with fishnet. The world this book takes you in is chilling and exciting. "

" I enjoyed this book although I struggled a bit with incredulity over the plot... "
- Wilma, 2/12/2012

" I normally enjoy this author, but I could not get into this book at all. I felt no interest in the main character or the story. 98 pages in I admit defeat. "

" I am a new Michael Connelly fan. He is an am amazing writer, and turns out a great plot. This one is a stand-alone, and not part of his famed Harry Bosch series, or the spinoff tales of Mickey Haller (of "Lincoln Lawyer" fame.)I definitely plan to read his entire title list eventually.

" Found a new mystery writer. Enjoy the whodunit stuff. Don't want the details, just the "trying to figure out" stuff.

" My LEAST favorite of Michael Connelly novels. The protagonist is supposed to be an intelligent scientist but comes off just too ignorant while falling for obvious ploys of the "bad guys".
"
- George, 4/28/2011
-
" The premise is hard to accept.
Interesting enough, but some really dull areas.
Seems like these guys just grind them out.

" I had a hard time believing someone so smart could be so dumb. This book was okay, but not one of the author's best.

" Very good mystery. Grabs you then sucks you in and you just didn't see it coming kind of story. A little too much on computers for me but all in all a good read.
