Introduction:
The cover’s a bit more haunting than it probably ought to be. It’s one of the few times that I don’t think it fits well unless you want to get deeply philosophical about the main character’s mood.
Summary: Zack Taylor’s told his best friend just committed suicide, but he knows better … and he’s going to prove it.
Additional Comments:
– Warning – not a “clean” book. Contains half a dozen f-bombs and plenty of violence.
– It’s a bit like a Jack Reacher book in that certain people get pounded and you still end up rooting for the good guy.
– There’s a romance subplot that the book could have done without. It’s not that it was bad, but it seemed a tad forced.
– The characters are likable – or unlikable – as they’re supposed to be. That’s always fun. I also enjoyed the fact that the main character isn’t invincible, but he’s still admirable and tough as nails.
– There are a few light-hearted moments. The descriptions are decent.
– I heard the narrated version. Although I can’t say the narrator’s voice is my favorite, he fits the character well and put on a solid performance. I would listen to another of his books.
Conclusion:
Mystery that provides an excellent excuse for the main character to bust people’s heads (and arms and whatnot). Highly enjoyable if you can stomach the violence.
