"It's hard to reckon with the realization that a prominent scientist in a cutting-edge field, writing his first novel in his "spare time," has created what may be the most gripping and engrossing thriller this reviewer has ever read in almost 50 years of thriller reading...[Paul McEuen] wisely writes about what he knows...but also shows a true gift for plotting, pace, characterization, and writerly clarity...and remarkably, he makes [his] ideas accessible to typical thriller aficionados. A stunning achievement."
