It's fine. The plot is good and engaging. The characters are pretty much basic stock characters, especially the women. The writing is overdone: Maybe it's because of the writer/professor POV or maybe that's just how this guy writes. Dialogue doesn't feel like it was ever spoken aloud. The POV switches kept me on my toes and interested. Again, it's fine.
