3.5 stars. It was a good one, quite an easy read. You'll enjoy it if you're a Sidney fan.
I ready this so long ago....I was maybe 15 or 16 years old at the time. It was very good and had a lot of suspense and action.
I hadn't read any Sidney Sheldon, so I picked this up at a library sale to try. Very much like the novels Dan Brown writes today -- perfectly acceptable suspense with a ca-razy plot twist at the end and some ridiculous plot holes throughout. Like, if all these people this tour bus were so preoccupied with their own problems and what they were doing the next day, etc, etc, then what were they doing on a touristy drive around the countryside?
I wouldn't exactly recommend this to anyone, but if I were stuck on an airplane for a couple hours with only a Sidney Sheldon book, I think I'd be ok.

Now, I'm not going to claim that this is amazing literature, but it's a fun quick read. Reminds me of Dan Brown,

My first and probably last Sidney Sheldon book. A couple of times I almost stopped reading this but like driving past a car wreck, I had to see what happened.A sci fi novel, not really. A spy novel, much closer, but throw in an alien and how we are all destroying the planet. The first part where the main character is finding witnesses to a UFO event and they are then murdered is predictable. The second part where the main character is being hunted is boring. The "surprise" ending was nothing but. What a load of @#$%.
Sidney Sheldon blows our mind again. The aliens seemed so realistic. Robert Bellamy gets an assignment but he himself is being hunted down.

At every point it seems that he is to be killed but he overcomes ot everytime,, thinking about Susan.

Written very different that most books by this author. I have enjoyed his writing for years. This material is similar to some of the movies and TV thrillers the last few years but the main character is intelligent and cunning enough to draw you into page after page of mystery. Fast read. Be sure to read the supporting documentation AFTER the final chapter!! Very credible support for this material.
From the pen of a master story teller, comes a rare protagonist -
A war hero, a lone wolf and a man with a broken heart. Commander Robert Bellamy, of the United States Naval Intelligence is sent for for a secret mission, to look for people that witnessed a government weather balloon crash on the side of Swiss Alps.
His job is to track everyone that ever saw the crash, but what he doesn't know that as soon as the balloon crashed, 'Operation Doomsday' had been activated by the elusive 'Janus' and that the balloon was not what it seemed and neither were the people Robert considered to be lifelong friends.
Heart broken by his wife leaving him due to his strenuous working conditions, Robert is forced to chase people that have no trace, this wild goose chase takes him across the world from Switzerland, to Russia, to Italy to Texas.
What Robert soon uncovers is something that he nor anyone ever thought possible. What do you do when you can trust no one and half of the governments in the world are on your tail trying to make sure the truth doesn't come out.
Who do you trust when everyone you know and trust turns on you and is willing to sacrifice you for a reward?
Left alone in the open with no place that is safe, Robert must trust the only person that will never betray him - his own self, it is his own instinct and years of training that comes to his aid when the biggest agencies in the world have declared him a fugitive.
As he alone has the power to expose one of the biggest scandals of modern politics, he is risking his life feeling he has nothing to live for, so he might as well have something to die for.
