Last of the 100 books challenge
Jun. 28th, 2008 07:27 pmNothing To Lose by Lee Child - They threw Jack Reacher out of town. Bad move, very bad move. Not as good as the others, a bit preachy, a bit slow. I still enjoyed it.
The First Patient by Michael Palmer - The president's personal physician has disappeared, so he asks a longtime friend to fill in for a while. Gabe Singleton finds out that the president appears to be having episodes of incoherence, possibly signifying mental illness. But is real? or a manufactured illness? And if so, how? Farfetched, but Palmer knows how to sell it.
Blood Trail by C. J. Box - Joe Pickett is asked by the governor to assist in the investigation of a murdered hunter. Two other deaths have occurred, but were deemed accidents, but this time the hunter was gutted and laid out like a dead elk. Joe finds a clue that points to a serial killer, but his hunch is dismissed by others - until a fourth man is murdered, along with a friend. The governor suspends all hunting in the state and Joe must seek help from old friends - and enemies - to find the killer. Box presents both sides of the hunting issue well and his love for the Wyoming wilderness shines through. Tight mystery, great protagonist and a great twist. Love this series!
