Title: HOAX is aptly named.
Product review: I agree with boyoboyo, who said that this book is the weakest link in the series. I was unaware that Michael Gruber had been the ghost writer for Tanenbaum, but that is the missing piece of the mystery. I kept wondering how could this have read so differently, with the characters so underdeveloped (especailly after 15 previous stories), and how could I - who anxiously antiscipated the release of each book - have disliked the entire story so thoroughly? I kept reading and wondering why the repetition? Where was the snappy dialogue? Why none of the former energy? Why am I continuing to read this? Arriving at the end of the story was a relief and a disappointment. I will say good-bye to Butch, ciao to Marleen, and look for Mr. Gruber.
