Pleasant and Entertaining
Sibling rivalry is a fascinating and intricate motivation for a story line. Replaced captures just the tip of the iceberg of potential stories in this journey into Sydney's emotionally handicapped family. I am looking forward to future scenarios from this author on the subject.

Jealousy
This is a great read. For everyone who reads all these definatly don't miss this one. It lacks none of the action you expect from an Alias novel. Sydeny is starting to find that she gets a little jealous and annoyed of Nadia. Its a great read and fills in a lot of the gaps. The author lets you in on how Sydney really feels about staying with Nadia.

Frustration Builds as the Book Progresses
When the APO team goes to arrest Dr. Lance Bergin, things go from bad to worse. It ends with his escape and Weiss being infected by a deadly virus. With time running out, Sydney tracks the bad doc to South Africa, where she is sidelined. While she fumes, Vaughn and Nadia are called in to complete the mission. Only with this case, nothing is ever easy and the bad news just keeps coming in. Can the three agents stay alive long enough to find the cure for Weiss?

The Alias books seem to be hit or miss recently, and this one is no exception. The story starts out well, and I was enjoying it. As the book progressed, I got more and more frustrated. The plot relies on the agents making critical mistakes. While I found the first few believable, by the end I was rolling my eyes as they were doing things I knew better then to do. Sydney gets more and more annoying as the story progresses as well, snapping at everyone around her. And one final complaint, although this one is minor. The book keeps saying they need to find a vaccine for Weiss, when in reality they should have been looking for an antidote.

Making the Alias books longer has not been the best decision. I am about ready to stop reading them and just enjoy the series on TV when it comes back on the air.
