I'll never find out who killed the Plum Island scientists. I guess DeMille is striving for the voice of the hard-bitten detective - a Philip Marlowe or Sam Spade - and thinks he Raymond Chandler or Dashiell Hammett. Then there's the ENDLESS string of witless humor. Corey has a thousand pet names for his genitals, bores us with his sexual fantasies and tries our patience by sparring us with other males as if every encounter is a cockfight. What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment? John Corey is a jerk who wastes our time with his sexual fantasies, idiotic insults of everyone he meets and lame jokes that he somehow believes are witty. What didn’t you like about Scott Brick’s performance?īrick's performance perfectly captures the spirit of the book's main character. I can't believe this book was so highly rated or that DeMille is a NYT best-selling author. Would you ever listen to anything by Nelson DeMille again? Would you try another book from Nelson DeMille and/or Scott Brick? Sophomoric, obnoxious, sex-obsessed narrator
