Review: intense and entertaining ... for a while

The action in this story is great and Rhett trying to protect the congresswoman is a really engaging plot-line. I was totally hooked and it made me want to see how the other story arcs were going to relate to theirs. And I was SO excited to see how things would go down between Rhett and Gustav! But, without giving away any of the major spoilers, the story sort of loses focus in the middle. Even the diary thread (one of my favorite parts of the story) gets dropped and not picked up again until the very end.The action and conspiracies in this book were great, the writing was compelling and solid, and the characters were fascinating, but they weren't enough to hold my interest after that unnamed middle event because it felt like the book didn't deliver on its original promise to the reader.
