Negative Positive
Title: Hi on suspense, low on everything else
Review: I swore I wouldn't read cheap thrillers, but I'm running out of books (on tape) at my local library. Of course, the plot grabbed my attention right away, but writing is sparse, characterizations are weak, and the plot slightly formulaic. The graphic nature of some of the narrative was a definite turn off. I'd leave this one on the shelf.
