Product Description:
Filled with nonstop suspense and stunning psychological insight, this is the story of Brendon Buchanan, undercover intelligence operative and master of over two hundred false identities: a man forced to assume the most elusive and treacherous identity of all--his own. Tracking the most devastating conspiracy he has ever encountered, trapped by his love of two enigmatic, beautiful women, he will race through a sinister labyrinth of intrigue to a shattering rendezvous with fate . . . in a novel that not only offers a brilliant, action-packed plot and fascinating characters, but asks daring, provocative questions about our own identities as well.

This book above all books delivers. The best description of this profound novel is how fast-paced it is. Excellent story-telling from beginning to end. This ranks in the tops. I have never read a novel that has been this continually climatic. Read it and see for yourself.

OK, people- here I go again about Morrell.
There is just no such thing as a "not so good" Morrell book. Some are better than others, that is the case with all authors. But they all deserve 5 stars. if you look at some of the other books I read, I read various types of books. I also like to read books from the same author, one right after the other. All of Morrells books get 5 stars. i wouldn't do that with Laura Lippman, Sidney Sheldon, Dean koontz or Marian Keyes.
Also, recently I emailed DM and you know what? He EMAILED me back- how cool is that? I can't wait for his subsequent book to come out...counting the days.

Assumed Identity is the best book I've ever read. Unbelievable action, exotic locations, great diverse characters, and an ingenious plot. David Morrell is sheer entertainment for any reader. His fantastic storytelling plays out like your watching an action movie. There's a fearsome villain that makes for a great showdown at the end of the book. A pure page-turner and a top-notch novel from Morrell.

First the book'll hook you up thinking that you'll read about some ruins in Yucatan. Then the main story changes to show us that the best US's spy just made mistake by mistake and they let him being a spy even if everybody knows all of his names. The book is too repetitive about how Buchanan changes his name and someone finds out his new name, made one mistake and one error until he blundered almost everything, but he is the only one to save his own situation. Meanwhile the book leaves you to nothing really interesting. Sincerely is a waste of time and trees.

No one writes better than Morrell when it comes to the "fugitive" novel - one man hunted by many in a cross-country chase.
In this case, a military intelligence deep cover operative has been accidentally exposed and an operation goes sour. Soon, the operative is being blackmailed and chased by an attractive reporter and the unwanted attention causes the operative's handlers to "terminate" a number of people and the operative comes to believe that his own life is in danger as well. Throw in a damsel in distress (actually two) and a James Bond-esque villain and the chase is on!
Unfortunately, a great story is slightly marred by the protagonist's constant internal psychobabble about who he really is (he confuses himself with the various personas he's become over the years). An even bigger problem is the ultra-rich villain. He's a parody of the James Bond super villain. The climax of the book is hokey and almost laughable. Too bad that a 400+ page book is marred by 10 pages at the end. A worthwhile read but be prepared.
