I always learn a great deal while reading Steve Berry's novels (not to mention, his Facebook posts) and Cotton Malone #18 is no exception. This time around, I learned all about bitcoin and blockchains as well as the CIA's shady origins. The action is unrelenting with nail-biting thrills taking place simultaneously in multiple locations and chapters flowing into further chapters keeping this reader riveted far beyond his bedtime several nights in a row. As always, I sincerely appreciate Berry's Writer's Note at the end, separating the fiction from the facts. It is always amazing to find out how much of the latter propels the former.
