Title: Not Follett's Best
Review: It's just ok. It's no "Key to Rebecca", that's for sure.The main character, Toni, came off to me as the most insecure Security Director of all time, frequently second-guessing herself and struggling with her competence and inner feelings. That came off as a bit pathetic to me. An interesting character in Daisy though.The romance aspect felt sappy and quite "token". I felt this to be completely predictable and probably unnecessary. I even found myself literally rolling my eyes at these laughable portions of the story.The tempo strikes a remarkable change about halfway through, once the heist kicks in. Page-turning, thankfully, gets much easier at that point.All in all, an average (at best) bedtime book, but I was let down, and feel that it didn't come close Follett's true potential.
