The only surprising thing about it was that I didn't really believe that DeMille would do it to me (especially not in a John Corey story) ... until he did.
You sound passionate about this topic. Have you read all John Corey book? Me, I stopped after Wild Fire, which was good, but a decline from the other books. Now Wild Fire, there's a book which has a weak ending.

Spoiler:
The climax where it's Kate dubious plan that saves them


is a greater cop out than Night Fall. We seem to have different opinions. No surprises there. At least we can both agree that it began excellently with Plum Island. Also John Corey's sense of humor is way funnier than Tony Stark(in the Iron man movies) or Mel Gibson in the Lethal Weapon films.
