I got to 100 pages or so and stopped. It was too much - too many coincidences, the protagonists too lucky in their ability to solve mysteries, just basically too unbelievable. You can take the breakneck speed factor and overdo it, which I believe was done in this book.

It was like reading an I Love Lucy episode, only fancier.

"Oh, look, they are going to get caught. Oh, look, they got away. Oh, look, they are going to get caught. Oh,look, . . .

And then the ending: "Hey, let's get together later and have sex."

"Okay."

The End.

Fabulous writing. The stuff of legend. Or at least worthy of making a stupid movie.
