One of my favorite things about the New Series Adventures novels is that they can explore stories that just wouldn't hit as hard on screen. There’s nothing wrong with this book, but it does feel like more of a traditional episode. There’s almost no utilization of internal dialogue, which I think has been the stronger point of many NSA books. However, the story is consistently interesting, and it has a lot of great action and suspense. It's much darker and more intense than most NSAs, and it works well. It’s not one of my favorites, but it’s definitely solid. If you’re looking to read more than one or two NSAs I’d recommend it.
