Eagerly anticipated but didn't grab meLots of blah blah blah scientific detail
The main character is well written - a rather horrible, rather lazy scientist who is simply keen to rest on his laurels. He wants to make as much money as possible based on his reputation that was made after winning a Nobel Prize. He rips off an idea from an acolyte and frames his wife's ex-lover for the murder of her current lover, the acolyte he ripped off.
The scientific blah blah blah was not necessary to understanding the plot or the characters or their motivation ... too much ... too boring.
