    Another solid adventure story from Cussler
  

*by B***R on Reviewed in the United States on February 6, 2023*

Another solid adventure story from Cussler.  Van Dorn Detective Isaac Bell returns and is this time matched up against the titular Spy, a mystery man who is intent on disrupting the design and construction of American Navy dreadnought warships through a campaign of murder and sabotage.If you're looking for something radically different from the first two books - or any Cussler book for that matter - you'll likely be disappointed. Much like the Wrecker, The Spy employs a similar plot device of keeping the bad guys identity secret through the use of inner monologues, and there are several red herrings presented on who he might be. Meanwhile you have Isaac Bell doing his best Dirk Pitt/Kurt Austin impression by surviving several assassination attempts, foiling the villain's evil scheme, and saving the day at the last split second.The early 1900's setting is interesting and I am enjoying this series. The Spy isn't as good as the previous two books, but it's still a fun read. Looking forward to seeing what Book 4 has to offer

    Consistent and Good
  

*by B***R on Reviewed in the United States on October 5, 2010*

Fair point: I did not read the first non-Cussler Bell book. In fact, it's been a while since Cussler has written alone, right? I hope all is well.I gave this book 4 stars. I'll begin with my complaints:1) Bell is too perfect. He's very much like Pitt, only more. He's too good. But he's still entertaining.2) The historical nods are obnoxious. For instance, at one point Bell meets a dancing kid. Before a name is given I'm thinking it's Fred Astair or Gene Kelly. I couldn't pick either out of a lineup. I couldn't tell you approximate years they lived. I couldn't tell you a single thing they did. I know zero about them, yet I could still see it coming. You then get a first name "Fred" and you sigh. Then, at the end of the passage, with a wink you're told his last name is Astair. It's kind of insulting - you figured that out before it was even presented. Don't give it to us with a wink, as if there's some surprise or suspense, when it's so obvious a guy that knows nothing about Fred Astair saw it coming. It really is a bit insulting. Other historical name-drops are equally frustrating. Characters invent things that eventually be popular far too easily (in one case it makes some sense, given who says it, in another case Bell not only has the idea for the invention but comes up with the not-so-obvious name it ended up receiving.) Lastly, I swear the Lusitania is name-dropped at least 20 times. A few make sense. 20 are absurd.3) The epilogue is idiotic.What's good?Everything else. It's a quick moving novel. Maybe it could use some balance away from just Bell, but it works fine as is. Honestly, I enjoyed the first Bell book and this is only marginally worse. Justin Scott does a great job keeping up with the original Cussler. If you liked that one you'll like this one. If you like Cussler at all you'll like this book. It's written down a bit, but it's the minor winks that are dumb, not the book as a whole (assuming you're supposed to know who the Spy is almost immediately, and I feel it didn't try to hide it. There's only one suspect until a final train ride, which is far too late for others. I hope it was intentionally transparent, but feel it was.)Bottom line - if you're reading this you already know Cussler, and therefore know if you'll like this book. Like him, like it.So I was surprised to see this book had some 1 star ratings. It isn't a Fargo book. Turns out it's being torpedoed by angry Kindle fans based upon the pricing. I'll approve of that. I wouldn't mind $15 Kindle prices when the book is hardcover if we had $5 when it's paperback. Can't have it both ways. I bought this for $5 used. Had I been a Kindle reader (and I soon will be) I certainly wouldn't have read this book.

    Isaac Bell and the navy
  

*by M***O on Reviewed in the United States on June 13, 2016*

In this 3rd novel, Isaac is involved with a case involving 3 "brothers" who are rampaging throughout several areas. He gets called into Van Dorm office in New York to meet a new client whose father had apparently just committed suicide.  The daughter insists that her father could never do this, nor could he sell trade secrets to foreigners. Isaac agrees to look over crime scene as it hadn't been gone over by the navy, who was trying to keep this quiet. He finds evidence of forgery in the suicide note as the signature is more like the father's signature at a much younger age than current. Isaac makes a promise that the Van Dorn agency will look into the death as well as completing the capture of the 3 brother band.  They are able through questioning figure out who set up the fake suicide but 2 other developers are also found dead. Bell is approached by a top Admiral who fought in the war with current President Theodore Roosevelt.  He explains to Bell about the new ships being built and the new guns. He also explains about the shielding material needed for the new unmaded ships called Hull 44. There were only 5 people plus the Admiral who were involved in developing the means to achieve this. Of the 5, 3are dead, so the Van Dorn agency places the remaining 2 under 24 hour watch. This doesn't stop the attackers but they soon figure out that one person called the Spy is behind everything.  Like all Bell stories, we get introduced to the suspect early in the story but only after Isaac Bell gets beat up a few times, does he realize who it is.  Isaac and Marion finally decide on a stone for her ring and solve the crime.
