I read thrillers; they're my genre of choice. Vince Flynn. Brad Thor and others, starting, of course, with Tom Clancy, Nelson DeMille and Robert Ludlum for many years. I list these names so you can trust I know what I'm talking about. Pendleton Wallace is someone you need to add to your list. I gobbled this one, with its realistic plot, great dialogue, a local's knowledge of the area he was writing about, and an insider's understanding of computer hacking, and immediately jumped into his second book. I just finished his third, and am reading the teaser first chapter of his fourth. Book 2 was just as good as book 1, which rarely happens with new authors. Book 3 I gotta confess, I had to accept the implausible not once but twice -- the second situation, however, about a mysterious panther, I understood was in keeping with the story line -- in order to continue the adventures of people I'd come to know and wanted to know better. You will enjoy the time you spend with Pendleton Wallace's books. You'll come back for more.
