Advance Praise

Bendoski writes like Hemingway, with not a single word wasted. That leaves center stage open for the action. The plot moves quickly, and chapters end continually with another intrigue, which keeps you turning pages as fast as you can. Perhaps the most brilliant part of this novel is the high concept--it's about how mass hysteria can be created and controlled. There's a lot of cool psychology and sociology mixed in, which adds a lot to think about and makes it deeper than a simple thriller. This is an excellent read for all fans of the genre! - J Washburnon
