I guess you could call the contents of this book, the sign of our times (*weak smile). It simultaneously feeds on expectation, fear and paranoia -- and because of this concoction, if you put yourself as a character in the book, the events in the story is believable. There is also a manipulative aspect in the story, which in understanding the greed of the human condition, however well-intentioned, ties this story up very nicely. Together, this book keeps you on the edge of your seat and the pages turning.
