Summary: Stephen White: A Master Of The Thriller!
Comment: This is the first of the "Alan Gregory" series by White. What a beginning! This book is chock full of fascinating characters and a plot that will keep you guessing long into the night (or early morning!).
White is especially effective at developing characters that are real and convincing, without the headliners being squeaky-clean perfect. All the characters have their flaws - like REAL people. I am tired of reading books where the "hero" has a picture perfect life. White's Alan Gregory character is superb.
One note that I think is important about the White books: If possible, read them in order of publication. "Privileged Information" is the first in the Gregory series and the others follow a natural progression and reading out of order may cause some confusion. Actually, it's a tribute to the well-woven character development by a true master of the thriller - Stephen White.

Summary: A super read!!
Comment: I have read all of Stephen White's novels and enjoyed them immensely. However, I have to agree with a couple of the other reviewers that reading them in order is best. I failed to do so and one day when I have forgotten the details I will read his whole series from beginning to end. They are that good. In Priviledged Information we are introduced to Alan Gregory who is a very interesting character. This book is a real thriller and very suspenseful. I could not put it down like all of White's books. I find his books every bit as good as Jonathan Kellerman's. Perhaps more so as his relationships with others are explored more deeply than Alex Delaware's.

Summary: Privileged Information
Comment: When I picked up Stephen White's latest book, Warning Signs, I didn't relaize there was a whole series featuring Alan Gregory. So I wanted to start at the beginning. I have to say I found the first Alan Gregory novel a disappointment. It took me forever to get hooked on reading Privileged Information. I was very disappointed in this book, and almost quit reading it a couple of times. Fortunately I also picked up Higher Authority and read it in two sittings. Luckily Stephen White recaptured my interest.
