PLUM ISLAND, N.Y. -- A human body has washed ashore on New York’s tiny Plum Island, where a U.S. government lab studies dangerous animal diseases.

So, what’s so unusual about a black male with “very long fingers”?

All of Nelson DeMille’s books are great, but “Plum Island” was my favorite (followed closely by “Charm School”).

Maybe the writer of the article has stubby fingers.

Charm School is definitely one of his best. Night Fall was very good as well. The only one I didn't care much for was The General's Daughter. (and no, I didn't see the movie)

“Night Fall” was incredible, as were “Up Country” and “Wild Fire”. I agree about “The General’s Daughter” (the movie was worse than the book) and I thought “The Gold Coast” was way overrated.

“Charm School” ranks as one of the best, most exciting books I’ve ever read.
