This is an excellent book and the analysis of the characters and action of the novel is superb.

I was delighted to come across another reader feeling the same cynicism about the opportunistic Charley Kinraid as I do myself (not that I go a bundle on Philip Hepburn, either; they're two sides of the same coin).

Recommended.
