Title: COMPLEX BUT INVOLVING THRILLER
Product review: Brandon Roberts, the hero of NIGHTWATCHER, wants justice served..and he wants revenge. His daughter, Judith, has been brutally murdered, and the initial suspects are three escaped mental patients. Judith worked at this mental hospital as a nurse, and was planning on moving on with her two daughters. She is murdered however before she can achieve this goal.Wilson leads us through a maze of plot entanglements, and gives us several suspects, including the woman's gay ex-husband; a snarly next door neighbor; maybe even a cop. We also meet a despicable patient named Minnefield who says he saw the murderer enter the cottage (it's on the institution's grounds, by the way). Roberts enlists the aid of both the local sheriff and a private investigator who helped Judith get her children back when the ex kidnapped them.The murderer's identity is apparent early on, but Wilson throws in enough doubt to make you wonder along the way.A good, crisp thriller.
