Review:
John reluctantly returns to LA for some sort of presentation that Lucy's doing. Shockingly enough, bad things happen. A fusion with Speed.
Now this is how a fusion is done. Annie takes the basic plot of Speed, gives it several Die Hard twists and then switches the character POVs so that nearly all of the dialogue is original. The end result is a fun fast ride that goes in unexpected places and takes a few pokes at some of the ridiculous bits of both canons (flying buses, anyone?) The ending is a little abrupt, but aside from that this is a great DH4 adventure story.
