An overall disapppointing book. There is a lot of history of what had gone on before under this genre. The writing is crisp, as one has come to expect of Griffin but this book does not advance the overall story.

ever-increasing insane president to rescue an old friend kidnapped in Mexico. Castillo also has to deal with the fact that the kidnapping is related to those in the world who, quite simply, want him dead. This is one I could not put down.
