The story of the book has been developed with good intentions. The plot moves steadily and the buildup to the climax is quite good. The overall idea of a cult that brainwashes people is not new but Jefferey takes it to a new level, and it presents a plausible narrative. The book starts on a good note and we meet our protagonist and understand his motivation in doing what he does, but then the pace drops significantly. The storytelling becomes longish in the sense that the details, while enriching the story, seem irrelevant at times.
