A thriller in which a graduate chemistry student and his girlfriend go on the run after his co-discovery of a cheap way to produce diamonds results in the murders of others familiar with the process.
Fast pace, good plot. I really enjoyed this book. Not many plot twists and turns, but characters are believable. Good for a quick escape from reality.
The author does a good job with the pairing of Erica and Kevin as each has their own past issues. They constantly need to stay ahead of the bad guys and there are several tense moments. The main bad guy (Lobec) is a "super polite all business" bad guy that makes him more scary. Writing was tight and LACK of bad grammar and typos was amazing.
It is a great book. It's a true page turner in that our heroes are never really "safe", so you have to keep seeing what's happening next. I really liked the book and would have given it the full five stars except I felt that Tarnwell had entirely too many resources working for him and sometimes the bad guys looked overly dumb.
I do recommend this book for those looking for a page-turner
