I've waited for something like 10 years for a new Thomas Black novel from Earl Emerson, and was very happy when this one landed in the store.

Fans of multi-layered conspiracy theories will find this one an intriguing read, but I'm not a big fan of those so I can't rank it among my favorites.... but I also couldn't put it down, so there ya go.

Here's hoping Thomas Black is back for good. ( )

Not one of Emerson's firefighter stories, and a big disappointment. All of his firefighter novels are excellent, even if you don't think you care about firehouse drama. ( )

WHAT I REMEMBERED MOST was the janitor's plastic helmet bouncing between the open rafters like a Ping-Pong ball, that and chucks of metal whirring past my ears.
