Crichton's first novel... a medical one he wrote while still in med school, I believe.
I just reread it last month, about a year or so after my first reading.
All I can say is that you can tell that it's one of his early works, but it doesn't mean it's any less in caliber than his later novels.
He gets right down to things, doesn't waste time. There's not a lot of extra stuff going on, just the mystery and the process of figuring out the puzzle.
The answer is perhaps a bit obvious, but I think the trip there is still interesting.
