Negative Positive
Title: I only finished it because I had nothing else to read!
Review: This book really deserves only 1 star but out of respect for the truly wonderful series that suffers a letdown with this book, I give it 2. Doesn't the NYPD have anything better to do with what are purported to be two of its best officers? Did Mallory get a message from outer space nudging her to investigate a World War II death? Like other readers I expected a Mallory who was at least slightly affected by the action in the previous book. But no, she is the same amoral machine we previously encountered. Her supporters have become her apologists and even they are beginning to have doublt about her. Is there a direction to this series or just a series of non connected police stories? Instead of wasting a book on this slight story, why not a short, short story--that's all the plot content allows. I will hope for better from the next Mallory.
Is the review positive or negative?
