Title: I'm sorry I got on this train.
Product review: Night Train just didn't work for me. The character of Mike Hoolihan just never became a real cop to me. In one sentence she's talking tough, "a bass player chokes to death on his own ralph," the next paragraph "a shoah of suicides" is mentioned. Is she a tough cop, or an intellectual one? If she's supposed to be both, it didn't convince me. These inconsistencies are found throughout the book. At first the odd feel of the character intrigued me, but then I just started to be annoyed by her. The plot, dealing with a suicide investigation that Mike has a personal connection to,leads to an unsatisfactory conclusion. The last chapter is titled "The Seeing." The sights within are very disappointing, and seem to make the whole book up to that point rather "pointless." Maybe that was the author's intent, but I'm sorry I found out the hard way.
