It's a four probably only because I am anticipating on the rest of the series -- which is really really good. Somehow this Adrian doesn't really fit in with my perception of his development in the other books, but still...he's Adrian. :-)
This was Bourne's first ever book so I should slice a bit of concideration into this. It was confussing in places, the heroine appeared strong in the beginning but after a faint or two not so much. The hero was not a likable bully. Just didn't do it for me.
