Negative Positive
Title: I've scouted that location myself.
Review: I thought that my knowledge of the rural Missouri/Illinois area near St. Louis would add to the interest of this book. Unfortunately, that's just about all of the plot that peaked any interest at all. The premise of a movie location scout becoming accidentally involved in a murder investigation had promise, but the story was very slow in developing. I kept putting the book down because I just got tired of reading. The real killer (pun intended) was that I just don't like Pellham, and when I don't like the main character, I have a very difficult time liking the story.
Is the review positive or negative?
