This is a provocative change from the traditional approaches. By turning the attention from conventional bombings to water system poisoning, we can present a frightening image of the variety of strategies terrorists could use. Congrats on BOTD.

I love fast paced stories because the pacing adds to the suspense and intrigue of the reader. I love the idea of the couple working separately as well, since we get to see how they counter issues independent of each other. Glad you enjoyed it!

As a self-confessed fan of espionage stories, I would hate to give this book a miss. It has all the makings of a thrilling and riveting saga centered around a gruesome terrorist act involving one of America's biggest foes. Its blend of contemporary reality with imaginative fiction is something to look forward to.

This should be an interesting book. At least, it reflects the society in a realistic way. Having the water-supply poisoned is, by far, the worst within the scope of human imagination. Waterworks is pretty interesting. I don't have any reservation purchasing it.

I can't imagine having me time with my family and then I'd be called upon from work to handle an emergency, therefore admire the dedication of this couple to their work. This is because its only a dedicated person that'll accept that. Congratulations to the author for winning BOTD with this book again.
