One of those books that impresses the reader with the sheer amount of research needed to write it. Also the incredible insight into the characters. It is centered around a secret service team protecting a vice-president running for president, and the families of the team. Multiple POVs that alternate - you know the type.
Of course I was disappointed with the ending. It was another one of those "how am I gonna end this" endings. Lloyd should have been the catalyst at the end instead of the disgruntled programmer, which at least would have wrapped things up nicely. Ask yourself how much more satisfying that would have been? The man (Lloyd) who wrote the procedures for the secret service taking advantage of those procedures to take his own life? With the man that cuckolded him in the detail?
Other than that, it's well crafted and highly recommended.
