Amanwithakindle.... reviews The Defect by Jeff Bailey

 

Anonymous reviews are some of my favorites. This is a review of The Defect from a reader who calls himself:

AManWithAKindleWhosNotAfraidToUseIt. Fun.

I quote 'Aman....'

 ‘Authentic enough to make me wonder whether the official story is a coverup. 

Reviewed in the United States on Amazon on March 6, 2024 

In an era of ever-watchful cybersecurity agencies, we shouldn’t worry about terrorists breaking into a nuclear power plant to cause a meltdown, or should we?

Jeff Bailey’s The Defect follows a terrorist attack on Desert Canyons nuclear power plant. There is no Desert Canyons plant, but there was a San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station near San Clemente, which was shut down 2013 (the same year events take place in the book), after “defects were found in replacement steam generators,” according to Wikipedia.

The technical detail in the book is authentic enough to make me wonder whether the official story is a coverup, and the “defects” were caused by terrorists, as Bailey wrote. The plotting and pacing are good. His writing style and reminds me of Michael Crichton’s Andromeda Strain.

Overall, a worthwhile read.’

I especially like the comparison to Michael Crichton.
