3. Overpowering, intense

Frank Connor's nine-year-old son has a rare form of leukemia. Without a bone marrow transplant, he will die - and time is running out. After not suitable donors are found, Frank risks his career as a San Francisco cop by illegally hacking into a Federal law enforcement computer. But he finds what he is looking for...

Journal Entry 4 by krin511 at Olney, Maryland USA on Saturday, December 24, 2011

I enjoyed this "cat-and-mouse" thriller with both the cop and con manipulating each other. After I read the book, I saw the movie that the book was based on. I noticed that some scenes that were briefly described in the book was shown in the movie, and that the book had a few extra scenes the movie didn't have.
