Title: Promising but falls flat
Product review: It is a strange book. The general themes are good - Nazis trying to take over the world and Californian doctor taking them on single handedly. The trouble is that there are far too many conincidences, starting when Dr. Osborn bumps into his fathers killer having been in France for only a few days. Anyway, I read that much on the back cover so my fault for buying it.You get the impression that this was written with one eye on film deal. Great locations, good looking cast, castles bursting into flames. However, for all the drama, there was nothing that really gripped the reader. The last few pages were fine, once we go a full explanation as to what had been going on for the previous 700 pages, but the explanation came too late.It's not all bad, just frustrating. A Bourne Identity without the suspense.
