Title: Suspenseful, but not realistic
Product review: Brown needs to work on her verisimilitude a bit with respect to human behavior and psychology. Alex Pierce's character was more than a bit unbelievable. And the undercover cop in the bar? Please.Also, there were too many coincidences in this novel. One of the first rules that a fiction writer learns is not to use coincidences--instead, everything must make sense plausibly. Too many events fall into place by sheer luck, which is annoying. This isn't a book of fantasy and magic, after all.Also, the language is unnecessarily vile at times, which can be distracting, especially during romantic scenes when Brown is trying to set the mood.Now that I've gotten the caveats out of the way, this novel *is* suspenseful, especially as you get toward the end. And the person who did it is a BIG surprise.
