Oooh, this sounds like a great thrill ride! My kind of book!
I do enjoy a good mystery. I love to read and have been promising myself to give myself more time to do it.
I think the premise sounds really interesting right from the start. He seems to have great ideas for starting premises-- based on what his previous book and next book are described as.
