A classic tension packed cat and mouse thriller that gets kinda boring in the middle and contains Deaver's trademark "twist" at the end. The country cops deal with city killer and the people in the story seem to gel nicely as the story revolves around a female deputy sheriff "Bryn." Overfall, a forgettable book, ( )

I've read some Deaver and did enjoy this one though I find I have a harder time suspending my disbelief than I used to. Some of the coincidences and twists I find harder to accept than I used to as a younger person. I used to read several different mystery series' but now find myself avoiding them. Any series, really. Can't get sucked into that especially newer ones having to wait too long for the next book.
I still like a good mystery/thriller now and again but gravitate to more literary fiction these days.
This was a good one with some good characters and I have a pretty good idea who committed the last murder. No spoilers though! ( )

Enjoy! ( )

If you haven't read Deaver yet and you enjoy suspense/thriller novels then I highly recommend him. This one is a page turner, with constant change of point of views: this is one hell of a way to build suspense.
The gist: A distress call sends a detective to investigate and she stumbles..well..to a number of 'bodies left behind'. I really enjoy reading about female investigators/detectives and really liked this one.

Very interesting and fast paced book. I could not put this one down. Read the book in a few days. ( )
