Will I love The Year of the Locust?

For approximately the first 80% of this book, it is a thriller set in Afghanistan/Iran with a CIA agent on a mission. There is one surprise, namely a cruise missile takes out a target and nobody can see the missile. Then suddenly, we see the nature of the missile and the book changes to science fiction. The missile is covered with small objects that give it the invisibiity cloak. I immediately thought the author had used physics similar to what I used in my First Contact trilogy, but no, Hayes had read enough science to have a different mechanism. That… show more.
