Review of The 27th Day (1957) by Erik G — 27 Apr 2009
Starts out really great, with five random people (L.A. journalist, Chinese peasant woman, Soviet private, German professor, and young Englishwoman) given the ultimate weapon for 27 days as a test of humanity's maturity.
The alien then tells the world he gave the five something very important but does not specify what. The middle is a pretty taut thriller, but it does a ridiculous copout at the climax.
