Title: Lacks sense of place
Product review: Correctimundo that this would make an excellent movie, per other reviews, and it's a suspenseful "good read" as they say. A real page-turner, it has plot-twists that keep the reader wondering. However -- it also make you wonder if the author has ever been to any of the locales Jesse Warden and other characters visit. Although catalogued as having an Idaho setting, the country around the fictional locale of the Aryan Universe is nothing like that described, and you get no feel for Idaho at all. Cult-members fly into Tacoma's Narrows Airport, which IS NOT on one of the "many small islands in Puget Sound." When Jesse Warden flies commercial to Washington DC, he has business in College Park Maryland and then a quick return to "Idaho." But he uses Washington National and Dulles airports, which are in Virginia, while College Park is just 25 miles down US Route 1 from Baltimore-Washington International. Author Woods lives in Santa Fe -- a small town in West Virginia's Pocono Mountains.
