The integration of several sub-plots, the detailed portrait painted of the primary character, the ins and outs of planning the destruction of a corporation, and the final surprise ending, very much an "out of the box" solution for an impossible situation, gave me great satisfaction, to the point that this author joins Robin Cook, Dick Francis, and Michael Creichton as a trusted provider of light entertainment.

A very interesting and well-written book about computer crime. The two main characters, Kidd and Luellen, are apparently in another book of Sandford's which I haven't yet read. The story is fast-paced and an easy, enjoyable read.

This is the first of the Kidd series. Kidd and his partner LuEllen are professional criminals. Fast-paced action.

Johns Sandford is a wonderful author. Not sure why I waited this long to read this series. The Lucas Davenport series is one of my favorites.
