Top notch thriller. The Switch has a really simple premise - someone mistakenly picks up a Senator's laptop at airport security. The story which follows is about the Sentor's staff trying to get it back without adverse publicity. Only, the more they attempt to avoid publicity, the higher the body count. For me the moral of the story is own up to your mistakes and once in a hole, stop digging. I wonder what would have happened if someone just went round and asked for it back - well, we'll never know! Finder writes pacey thrillers and the short snappy chapters in The Switch, work really well. Highly recomended
