 Hard Work July 30, 2008
Julia Fox (Hampshire, England)
Totally agree with R Clary. I've read all Kellerman's books and have never found one so difficult to read. Too slow and the incessant changing possibilities debated by the detectives about what might have happened bored me to tears. I suspected more than once these were just to fill as many pages as possible as they certainly didn't pique my interest. Although I started out interested in Tanya her constant references to her sainted 'Mommy' got on my nerves quite quickly.
I'll be glad to finish this book but fortunately I've enjoyed enough Kellerman novels to give the next one a try.

I have been reading this book every night for the last 3 weeks and I find that 2 chapters absolute maximum a night are all I can handle, it's just so dull. I am now on chapter 36 and near the end and even now I am not rushing to see how it finishes. I wouldn't buy another one of this guy's books.
 A Return To Form June 20, 2008
Catblack_uk (UK)
Something of a return to form - and certainly an improvement on the last two in the series (Rage & Therapy). I found this both an engaging read and a satisfying whodunit.
Thankfully, Robyn's presence was kept to a minimum as were the Koi and, strangely, I found the new dog less irritating than the last. Milo's grey sideburns don't get a mention this time around though his bunions are referenced in compensation along with his standard pockmarked face, flab and shocking dress sense so Kellerman's readership are reassured yet again that Dr Delaware is unlikely to have a gay moment any time soon.
Plot-wise, I found it a real page-turner. Read it with enthusiasm. Intelligent and well-crafted. Not his absolute best but close to it. Recommended.
 Good entertainment May 6, 2008

Not much different from the other Alex Delaware novels. And exactly that's my problem with it: same characters, no surprises (okay, apart from the new dog), psychopath about town. Alex delves into the past and uncovers hidden secrets. So the plot is well executed but essentially the umpteenth version of the same story. I wonder why Kellerman never spices up the plot by having Milo and Alex running in the wrong direction. However far fetched theit hypothesis are: they are always right. From my point of view after I don't know how many books the Delaware formula has gone stale. But all in all it's solid entertainment. But if you've read the other novels you will forget this one right after having read it.

Boring, boring, boring. Am used to the high pace and twists and turns of a James Patterson novel and this comes nowhere near. Alex and Milo are characters that are likeable and with whom you can empathise with but the plot is extremely slow and I found myself skipping pages to try and find a good bit. Dissapointing to say the least.
