Bank of Fear
Is this book REALLY by Ignatius? Is he outsourcing or co-authoring because he's too busy doing Washington Post columns or has he had a breakdown? I've been huge fan through all of his books, but this is preposterous. Helpless heroine buys herself a dress that fits "like Saran Wrap" in hopes that tech-idiot-sexual fantasizer hero with father complex will arrive to the rescue? The tech in this book is 2007 at best. Perhaps being a best selling author caused Ignatius to pull this old draft out of the bottom drawer of the desk and hand over to the publisher, who then didn't bother to edit? Yuck. David, step it up or cede the field and spend the royalties to date at Makoto.
