My Rating: 4.7
Two men on opposite sides of the Cold War with a woman torn between them. This starts in France and then goes to Afghanistan and Pakistan. It is a typical Follett with intrigue, passion and betrayal.
If you are like me, you will have to skip over the gratuitous sex scene - UGH! I don't consider myself a prude but those pages and pages of descriptive sex were not only completely unnecessary to the plot line but detracted from the book. I had to let the book marinate a few days after I finished it to realize that as horrible as that sex scene was, the rest of the book was worth recommending.
