Title: Great premise, silly book
Product review: Truly a wildly silly tome. It starts off well and rapidly degenerates, not even bothering to prep the reader for the next round of ridiculousness. I love thrillers, and understand about the necessary suspension of belief for almost all of them, but The Syndrome requires far too much from its readers: total brain disengagement. The dialogue is stilted, the characters are cutters, and if you don't laugh out loud when you discover the final nefarious plot, well...Whatever you do, don't spend the money on the hardcover.
