Very good read. ( ) Okay, technically I can't say "Read by unowned" ... because I never read it. I know, "Don't judge a book by it's cover" but there's a Dollar General $1 sticker on this book ... someone bought it for a $1. It's a $1 book. I can't bring myself to waste my time trying to drag myself through anymore of it. I read the 1st chapter ... I think that's enough. I hated that much of it! May 19th, 2014: About half way now and I'm not really convinced. May 22nd: done reading and I'm even less convinced by this book. Despite I know this is a work of fiction and therefor not bound to truthfullness to reality, I had a really hard time getting through this book and keeping my mind to all the scenes popping up. Why would an agent switch sides and become no less a serial killer than the men she is hunting for? Why, with all the resources the have let the Bureau do her thing for so long? The open ending, that is shouting read the next book too, is absolutely NO book I will be looking for! I thought that Jay was a unique character with no overly annoying quirks or things to make her seem all the more unique. She wasn’t gorgeous. She wasn’t unnaturally brilliant. She wasn’t rich. She did have a bit of an awful past; raped by the BMOC in her town and no one believed her story. There also wasn’t anything about the writing that particularly made me nuts – except one thing. A scene started out with a guy named Bo Richardson and then the author kept calling him Stevenson. It caught me off guard once and I thought there were two guys and I had missed something. Nope, just bad editing. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
Onderdeel van de reeks(en)Jay Fletcher (1)
FBI Special Agent Jay (nee Janet) Fletcher is an agency hacker who can use computer to find out anything about anybody, but her failure to go through proper channels gets her bounced from Washington, D.C. to Santa Fe. The arson detail that's supposed to keep her out of trouble lacks excitement, so she hones her computer skills by tracking an ongoing investigation into Las Vegas's own serial killer. What Jay thought was just exercise turns into online terror when she discovers that the murderer, with his 20-year history of grisly crimes, is hooked into a secret network of gruesome criminals like himself who play an all-too-realistic computer simulation game. As her recreational hacking turns into a full-out personal quest, Jay quickly leaves behind the safe boundaries marked by warrants, Bureau procedure and due process. While Jay and the killer move ever closer toward a shattering confrontation, with Jay's former colleagues close behind, thought-provoking questions become as compelling as the deadly game itself: What is Jay Fletcher exactly--an angel of justice or a killer no different from the man she hunts? And just whose side should the law be on? Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
