I thought that the premise of this story was pretty interesting. An original setting that could make for a great thriller as some man fights to survive in the tunnels under Manhattan while being hunted by ruthless corporate old money big wigs. But Saul just has to be about the worst writer in America today. I stuck with this tale just to see if Saul could wiggle his way out of a structural disaster that occurs when he gives about half the pages to a character (the father) that detracts and is un-needed. Saul manages to make it feel that this is the first draft we are reading. The ideas are not built up at all or lead into fruition except for the descriptions pertaining to depravity in a couple of his characters. This is perhaps the most half assed bit of piece meal cut and paste editing that I have ever come across. Very uninspired.
