Title: Why isn't this a movie yet?
Product review: The first book I read by Robert Crais was L.A. Requiem, which I thought was average, but good enough for me to track down other books. This was the first one I grabbed, and I'm glad I did. Demolition Angel grabbed me from the get-go, and I was engrossed all the way to the end. Even when I was able to predict what was going to happen next, further plot developments would turn everything around again. And the ending, although familiar, was wonderfully tense and clever. I'm not sure it deserves five stars, but I've read so many disappointments lately that it was just a nice change to read something pacy, punchy and smart. If this makes it to the big screen without too much tampering (which is probably too much to ask), I'll be the first in line.
