Title: Cliche and derivative . . .
Review: Moriarity does an admirable job of world-building but his characterizations tend to be two-dimensional and predictable. The personalities and dialogue will be familiar with anyone who has watched 70's era cop show. All that's missing is the cheap jazz background. The villains don't twirl black capes and laugh maniacally and neither do the power brokers stroll around in smoking jackets and ascots but the characters come too darn close to that for my tastes. Pass this novel up unless you consider eye rolling a sport.
