Fasten your seatbelt before you read the first page because the ride just gets faster and rougher page after page. An excellant book for the lover of adventures.

No deeper meaning here. Things either go Bang, Boom or KA-POW!

Back of book: It is America's most secret basse, hidden deep in the Utah desert, an Air Force installation known only as Area 7. And today, it has a visitor - the President of the United States. He has come to inspect Area 7, to examine its secets for himself. But he's going to get more than be bargained for on this trip. Because hostile forces are waiting inside. Among the President's helicopter crew, however, is a young Marine. He is quiet, enigmetic, and he hides his eyes behind a pair of silver sunglassses. He name is Schofield. Call-sign: Scarecrow. Rumor has it, he's a good man in a storm. Judging by what the President has just walked into, he'd better be ...

This book is very suspenseful and moves quickly. Scarecrow wears sunglasses because of past injuries to his face -- he is a real hero. This is an action book, which shows what a human can do in extreme conditions.

This author also wrote "Ice Station" and "Temple."

I was stunned when I read the first 'Scarecrow' book but it made me a follower, fast paced, action packed, impossible feats but every page offers something that makes you want to keep reading and even though the books are kind of long the story just flows along with an ease that you don't realize it's time to sleep, eat or put it down for just a minute!

Reilly is fast becoming one of my favorite authors. His over-the-top action sequences are fast paced and exciting, if a little unbelievable some times. Additionally, there a lot of "happy coincedince" but that just makes the reading more fun.

This book has a great premise, with the heart transmitter,the timers and planted explosives. The characters are mostly old friends from earlier books which continue develope.

I already have the next book which I plan to read very soon

Another in the saga of Scarecrow books.
If you are in the Air Force, you may not like this tale as it includes a bad element withing the Air Force plotting against the President
