Summary: Get out!
Comment: The first half is not so bad. After that "John Case" obviously lost all interest in this ... and so did I. Besides: An author who does not care about details is not to be trusted in general. You can't buy an assault rifle just like that in Switzerland! John Paul I was certainly not killed because of Vatican II. "Case" does not know anything - and did no research - about radiology (especially CAT scans) and he certainly does not speak German: A "hunter store" is no "Speicher fuer Jaeger"!

Summary: A big disappointment!
Comment: After reading The Genesis Code and thouroughly enjoying it, this book is a complete disappointment. I could not believe how messy and poorly developed the plot was. This book read as a weak attempt of amateur writers to write about profound matters.
I guess, no more John Case for me: the duo is degenerating fast.
Rating: 2
Summary: Very average book
Comment: This is a horrible book and took me forever to read, so unfortunately I've probably forgotten a lot of the reasons why I didn't like it. The beginning shows promise, with the kidnapping and mystery surgery on Lou McBride. Then Nicco Cope for no apparent reason assasinates a terminally ill old man. Both are obviously being manipulated by an evil organization.
But then the next 400 pages or so switch gears and follow the plight of Dr. Jeffery Duran, Nicco's pshychologist, and Adrienne, her sister. Duran has also been affected by this evil organization, and the reader knows it from the beginning. But it takes 400 pages for Jeffery and Addrienne to figure out. Then in the last few pages or so, Case tells us what the "Syndrome" is all about, then throws in some action in the climax.
Case's novels are getting progressivley worse. It'll be awhile before I try his new one.
