Boring!

I’ve been such a fan of the Decker for so long that I’d begun to feel like a member of the family. That made this book an amazing turn of events. Mrs. Kellerman, I was stunned by the turn, enthralled by the story, moved in emotion by the way you drew me into the lives of the characters. I have always enjoyed your books, but this one captured me as none before. I know it must be a plot in the family that both you and Johnathan have stepped outside the long running characters. but I’ve got to say, with all due respect to the guys, you outdistanced them by a mile. As a thriller it is a page turner; could not put it down. As a character study, of many characters, it moved me- to the point of tears in the conclusion following the penultimate climax. Even in literary form, it was perfection. Thank you for a REAL conclusion and not just a “caught the SOB, good bye.” Guess you can figure out that I really, REALLY like it. (Nod to Ms. Fields.)

This is not Kellerman’s best effort. It has tortured teenage dialogue and a way too dragged out plot. I decided I didn’t care for the book, but kept plugging anyway, hoping for a payoff that never came.
