One where the bad guys are particularly.. well villainous, slightly comical in some ways.

    <body><![CDATA[Very good plot and story. Ted Bell writes great thrillers with good character development and a lot of twists and turns. After saying that, I'll admit that I found parts of it to bog down a bit. My preference is for a faster paced thriller (aka David Morrell, Greg Iles or Harlan Coben).
