Nice change of pace from an Elvis Cole stand alone. Looking forward to the next one. ( ) Excellent, excellent book. I've got to credit my local used bookseller for turning me on to Crais. Luckily I found the first of the Joe Pikes, but now I have to go back and see if I can find all the Elvis Coles. Anyway, back to this book, excellent story, great characters, and very well executed. I usually like more wit in my leading men, but the team up with Cole filled that role for Pike. Overall it was a fast paced thriller that I didn't want to put down, and luckily had a lazy Sunday, so I didn't have to. Like I've said numerous times before, you know a book is good when you don't want to put it down. I finished this one in one day, which is as much a combination of having the time to do it, and also wanting to do it. Now I just have to find all the rest... Needed more Elvis, but the action and suspense made for an enjoyable quick read. It was quick because I had trouble putting it down, but part of that might be because I just had a cataract surgery, and this was an audiobook so it was easy on my eyes, and I also had more of free time. I like the Joe Pike character, but perhaps he's not great as a main character. He doesn't have much to say; kind of like the Clint Eastwood character in the early westerns. But some of what he does say is fairly profound, in a way. At least it was to "the girl", as they refer to Larkin Conner Barkley. But don't come down too hard on them, she acted pretty immature for much of the story, although seemed to redeem herself a bit at the end with the help of Joe Pike's psychoanalysis, which she deemed better than years of professional analysis. He also has some insights into Elvis Cole, and brings up things we never knew about why he admires him even though Elvis is so different. sem crÃticas | adicionar uma crÃtica
