I read this book three times back-to-back and kept copious notes to make sure that I understood the timeline of the plot as well as who the various characters were. Luckily it was interesting enough to hold up under that kind of scrutiny! Ms. Thomas has the most remarkable ideas for memorable plots, and she makes her mysteries realistic as well as a little futuristic. The writing style is well developed and doesn't get in the way of the flow of the story. The editing is also superior to that of many of the Amazon Kindle freebies. Yes, I'd be happy to recommend Ms. Thomas' books to potential readers!It would be helpful if there were more detail about everyday life in the US following WWIII; it seems as though some cities were completely wiped out but life went on relatively unchanged elsewhere. I'd like to know why there wasn't an economic collapse, why communications and interstate commerce weren't also decimated, or if that happened but the country had managed to recover somewhat. I think this author's fertile mind could have fleshed out her plot to write a richer, more in-depth and better book.It was puzzling to see the anti-ID chip software referred to in the book as both Angel Mark and Angels Mark...I would have thought Angel's Mark would have been the right way to write it. A little glitch like that certainly won't keep me from diving right into the next book in the series, 'Covert Coffee,' though!
