A review by micrummey
The Directive by Matthew Quirk

3.0

Mike Ford through his brother is obliged to take part in a heist. This is effectively a plot to make a killing money wise in getting hands on a directive which will shape US monetary policy. A fast paced novel where you have suspend belief because you start to question, could a lawyer really do all this physical stuff especially when injured?
I did like how the second chapter foreshadowed future events but it wasn't hard to second guess this, otherwise that chapter was pointless in being there.
Part of the crime involved hacking into computers and manipulating security cameras, the technical explanation of which went whoosing over my head.
Like wise some of the fight scenes seemed over complicated and I started to question, how did that happen?
Still it was readable and you wanted to know the fate of various characters both good and bad.
