Todd Quimby is a dysfunctional screw up. Nick Lawler is a good detective going blind. Throw them together and you get a twisty turny mystery that needs to be solved. This book is authored by two guys associated with Law & Order: SVU. I’ve never watched that particular show, but I do love Law & Order: CI and shows like CSI, Bones, Cold Case, Without a Trace, Monk, NCIS, etc. etc. So though I usually would watch something like this story on television I do like to read a good mystery every now and again. This was a great story. The characters were believable, the plot twisty, the writing smooth. It started off a bit slow with some background info interspersed with the mystery, but I like info, so it didn’t bother me. Then when I thought the case was put to rest yet had half a book left to read I was wondering where this story was going. The case didn’t seem to fit together very well, as if we were missing something. Something important. The middle lagged a bit, but picked right back up when the trail got hot again. I have to say the ending surprised me. I love not figuring out how a story is going to end. It drives me crazy…in a good way. I’d read more stories by Baer and Greene and hope they collaborate again. *The publisher provided a copy of this book to me for review. Please see disclaimer page on my blog. A teen read where it does a delightful job portraying how younger ones should be close to their elder, which is why if you can get past that part( since we do not see good relationships anymore in this day and age) then you may go on to enjoy the rest of the story. I found this story a little hard to follow though at some points, why I appreciate the plot twists and turns and dives and swoops, it got a little teensy but tiring. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
