Where to start on this book?  I rarely give five stars to any book I read as there are glaring errors - either grammatical, editing, believability or no exciting plot.  This book has a really good plot.  The characters are very believable.  They have moments where they do and think like I would do in a similar situation.  They aren't perfect such as having too much trust in how the known bad guy is going to act.  The plot gets a little too technical for me as I don't know the oil and gas industry.  The way Mr. Douglass writes is very easily read.  Very few errors: such as missing or too many words to complete the sentence, bad punctuation, etc.This is a very good read.  I never was totally prepared for what was going to come next.  I've read enough of this genre to assume I know generally what is coming next.  Just about when I figured it out Mr. Douglass would throw a curve at me.  There was more plot happening in the first quarter of this book than happens in the entirety of other books.  I'd get through one mess thinking the story was done and now what's going to happen with the next 85% of the book?  I literally thought to myself that the end of the book was a few pages away, and off I and the characters would go again.Also, I was a young adult during this time period so I experienced a lot of what was going on with gas wars, etc.I have purchased the two remaining books in this series and can't wait to start reading.  Thank you Mr. Douglass.
