HTML:In New York Times Bestselling author Richard Castle's newest novel, an illegal immigrant falls from the sky and NYPD Homicide Detective Nikki Heat's investigation into his death quickly captures the imagination of her boyfriend the Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist, Jameson Rook. When he decides to work the case with Heat as his next big story, Nikki is at first happy to have him ride along. Yes, she must endure Rook's usual wild conspiracy speculations and adolescent wisecracks, but after reuniting following his recent assignment abroad, she's glad for the entertainment, the chance to bounce ideas, and just to be close to him again and feel the old spark rekindle. But when Rook's inquiry concludes that Detective Heat has arrested the wrong man for the murder, everything changes. Balancing her high stakes job with a complicated romance has been a challenge ever since Nikki fell for the famous reporter. Now, her relationship lurches from mere complexity into sharp conflict over the most high-risk case of her career. Set against the raging force of Hurricane Sandy as it pounds New York, Heat battles an ambitious powerbroker, fights a platoon of urban mercenaries, and clashes with the man she loves. Detective Heat knows her job is to solve murders. She just worries that solving this one will be the death of her relationship.… (plus d'informations)
I wasn't going to read another one of these, but I couldn't help myself. At least I didn't actually read all of it. I just skimmed it.
This one has a pretty decent mystery, lots of nasty characters and action, and actually feels more like the type of potboiler thriller that Richard Castle would turn out. But I still say that Richard Castle would never write himself so obviously into his own book.
I still can't bring myself to give it more than 3 stars. If you're not a Castle fan you won't get it. If you are a Castle fan, you'll either love it because it's just like an extended Castle episode (with the names changed) or you'll be as on the fence as I am. ( )
This book reminds me how much I adored the TV series. The casual banter, twisty plot, and fast pace make this a satisfying read. It is a mystery within a police procedural—who is the real author of the published series? ( )
I decided to read the Nikki Heat series because I loved the tv series Castle which is what these books are based around. I liked how the books are written as if Richard Castle had really written it with the dedication and such. The story was fast paced and suspenseful. These books are true t the series without just rehashing the tv show. They add something slightly different but equally as good to the world of Nikki Heat. ( )
The cover didn't set the expectations high but I was still disappointed. Clichéd hardboiled cop stories can be entertaining but this one bored me rigid. ( )
