Publisher Description

Dr. Jonathan Ransom, world-class mountaineer and surgeon for Doctors Without Borders, is climbing in the Swiss Alps with his beautiful wife, Emma, when a blizzard sets in. In their bid to escape the storm, Emma is killed when she falls into a hidden crevasse. Twenty-four hours later, Jonathan receives an envelope addressed to his wife containing two baggage-claim tickets. Puzzled, he journeys to a remote railway station only to find himself in a life-and-death struggle for his wife’s possessions. In the aftermath of the assault, he discovers that his attackers—one dead, the other mortally wounded—were, in fact, Swiss police officers. More frightening still is evidence of an extraordinary act of betrayal that leaves Jonathan stunned. Suddenly the subject of an international manhunt and the target of a master assassin, Jonathan is forced on the run. His only chance at survival lies in uncovering the devastating truth behind the secret his wife kept from him and in stopping the terrifying conspiracy that threatens to bring the world to the brink of annihilation. Step by step, he is drawn deeper into a world of spies, high-tech weaponry, and global terrorism—a world where no one is whom they appear to be and where the end always justifies the means. Rules of Deception is a brilliantly conceived, twisting tale of intrigue and deceit written by the master of the espionage thriller for the twenty-first century.

    " I enjoyed this book but there were no twists or surprises.in it. I want a good twist.or something to happen I was not expeting. Of course Emma was alive! just not very well thought out. I also didn't think so many characters were needed to tellthe story, sometimes it got to be a bit much. "

    " This book starts out inan exciting manner, with a young American doctor skiing the back country of Switzerland with his wife, who falls into a crevasse to her apparent death. Later, he receives some baggage claim tickts that belonged to the deceased. After picking up the bags, he is assaulted by 2 goons who want whatever was in the luggage. The doctor defends himself successfully, knocking out one of the attackers, who turns out to be a Swiss policeman. And then there are Islamic terrorists, and other bad boys. Despite the interesting start, I felt there were too many characters and too many sub plots. "

    " A man is on the run after his wife dies and he discovers she was not who she appeared to be. Good spy book, but sometimes it got bogged down with technical stuff. I would read more books by this author. "

    " Normally I'd forgo this sort of book. But, I was out of town at my in-laws, had left the book I was reading at home, and couldn't watch any more ESPN. It's been a quick read but pretty predictable a la Dan Brown or Robert Ludlum, for sure. "

    " Free on Kindle-Love those! Finished this past weekend. Another thriller along the lines on political 24 tv show. Took a few chapters to figure out the players. Regular Joe, can save the world. Lots of spies, CIA, terrorists, murder etc. The usual formula of thrills and chills. "

    " A doctor gets entangled in international intrigue following his wife's ski accident in Switzerland. Parts of it kept me riveted; other sections were so-so, but overall it was worth reading. I will try some of his other books, mostly international financial thrillers. "
