Overall I liked the book. Somewhat wordy at various spots, too many questionable details just to fill a page. Characters were pretty well thought out. I was hoping for a more dramatic ending. I mean this woman, Holly, kills the Outsider with a sock of ball bearings. I don't think so. Maybe some stalactites falling from the cave ceiling a spearing the outsider through the head would've been more believable. Then maybe a mad dash to exit the hole by Ralph and Holly before the hole caves in. Just saying. King's attention to details reminds me of another author, Tom Hansen. Check him out.

Living in the south Florida area made it easy to relate to the various locations that are featured in the book. Bold Exploitation is infused with a plethora of characters and settings that keep the story line fresh and coherent. Hansen has produced another "page turner" that is a must read. Golf anyone?
