Le roman était gratuit et il m'a permis de travailler un peu mon anglais. Voilà pour les aspects positifs.Sinon l'intrigue est difficilement crédible et les personnages superficiels et agaçants. J'aurais sans doute mieux fait de passer mon chemin...

Sylvie Smith checked the time. Her appointment had been for two o’clock. The time on her laptop now read two forty-five—because she hadn’t just sat there in the luxurious reception of Tom McFarlane’s penthouse office suite twiddling her thumbs and drinking coffee. Chance would have been a fine thing. The message couldn’t have been plainer. She was the enemy and so she’d been left to twiddle her thumbs without the courtesy of a cup of coffee to help fill the time. Not a problem. Her nerves were already in shreds without adding a surfeit of caffeine to the mix. And she hadn’t twiddled her thumbs either. She didn’t have time to waste thumb-twiddling. Didn’t have time to waste, full stop.
