Never was a best seller, never will be...won't be made into a movie either

Review: The Black Box

User Review  - Kathy - Goodreads

This goes way off the track in the last third of the book, taking the characters and the readers on an absurd pursuit of a criminal. I admit to not having read the entire book; I cried 'Uncle' when the tribe of hostile African warriors was introduced into what had been a story set in Manhattan.
