Title: My first and LAST Nevada Barr book
Review: This is the first Nevada Barr book I've read and I do not plan to read any more. Some of the other reviewers complained that the tale is too dark. I can deal with that. Unfortunately, the topics the author touched on are not foreign in the real world. However, what displeased me about the book is that I never felt a strong connection to any of the characters. I never felt drawn in by the writing. When I read what I consider to be a good book, I am able to experience the different emotions as they're conveyed in the story. I also have a hard time putting it down. With this book, it got to a point where I only continued reading because I'd already invested time into it -- not because I was really enjoying it.When I read a description of the story I was anxious to get my hands on it. What a disappointment! Maybe I should have picked a different Nevada Barr book to start with.
