This fast-paced, action-packed thriller gripped me from the very beginning, keeping up and never slaking its pace till the very end, in the most satisfying of manners.From the first pages I was transported to the beautiful sunny Jamaica and the Caribbean seas, all sparkling with attraction and danger, just like the local life and politics did. The characters were all three-dimensional and more, very much alive and kicking, not standardized or stigmatic, no purely bad guys or good guys, or gals, not in this novel. They were all human, with human urges and weaknesses, with the need to do what has to be done, not always the "right" thing. To follow the bad guys was as fascinating as to follow the good ones, something I appreciate in the good story the most - the humanness of the characters.As for the plot, it rushed on in the right pace for me, keeping me fascinated and wishing to know what will happen next.Not a reader of thrillers, I enjoyed this one greatly and would read more by this author.
