A review by darth_vader
Radiant Angel by Nelson DeMille

2.0

My least favorite DeMille novel. In the epilogue DeMille goes to the effort to explain that everything is fact checked. Well, the whole plot of igniting a nuclear weapon below sea level just doesn’t work. For maximum damage nuclear bombs are detonated hundreds of feet above surface. I found that whole part of the plot unbelievable.

A bullet fired from an M4 doe not lose momentum after 6” in the water. They are lethal many feet in to the water.

I found the assassination scene on the boat unnecessarily long and monotonous. How many pages were devoted to killing all those people on the yacht? Too many in my opinion.

Ok at the end of the book where the assassin played dead and made a come back at the end I thought was corny.
