Product Description

What's in a name? Apparently everything.

A killer is targeting women in the Los Angeles area who share a name with Sydney Bristow's former aliases. Sydney wants the case, but she's already hot on the heels of a terrorist armed with a secret formula for a super-explosive.

While Sydney and Dixon try to prevent the terrorist from creating a man-made tsunami aimed at the United States, Weiss and Nadia are tasked with catching the Alias Killer. Jack and Vaughn quietly embark on their own investigation into the alias killings and begin to suspect that the murderer may be an ex-coworker resentful of Sydney for shutting down the shadow organization SD-6 years ago.

As Sydney struggles to stay focused and stop a ruthless man with mass destruction on his mind, she can't help but wonder, Will APO find the Alias Killer before another one of my unsuspecting namesakes pays the price?

This series so far has been pretty entertaining, obviously more so if you were a fan of Alias. It's an entertainig story, well written and easy to ready. It won't win any awards so don't expect a classic, but it's worth the price and you won't be disappointed. I was a huge fan of Alias, so honestly, I may be a bit biased, but like I said, the story was entertaining and the series is a winner.

Well.... as much as I enjoy the Alias TV Series, the prequel books, and the series of APO stories, I did not care for the condition of the book I purchased. What is said to be in "good condition" was actually not for me. Having all the traces of a library in Florida is not what one would consider "good conditions". The quality of the paper back was dirty, very used, and I could not remove without ripping the book cover all the tape and labels from the Florida Library this book came from. I did not get my money's worth and I am disappointed. Sorry... but I call it as I see it. I am an auditor in real life - so my statements are accurate and backed with objective evidence.

The only positive is that it shipped in a timely manner to my house. Thanks for that at least.

For true Alias-the-TV-show fans, this book delivers. It remains true to the show and reads just like an actual episode. Great book in a great series!
