This book was a real suprise to me. I didn't think I'd care for it and had a few pre-concieved notions going into it. The first few pages were all it took to hook me. The action is non stop and there is very few places you can actually catch your breath before you're dragged back into the next chase scene. The use of real members of history during the 50's makes you stop and think as to how much, if any, of their storyline really happened. A real fun book to read, I recommend it!
