Descripción
Libro 1st todie – First todie. James Patterson, bestselling author of the Alex Cross novels Along Came a Spider, Kiss the Girls, and Pop Goes the Weasel, offers the first of a new series dubbed The Women’s Murder Club, featuring a four-woman team that occasionally works outside the system. None of the gritty darkness or frenzied action is lost in 1st to Die, although the female protagonists offer an even deeper emotional context to this suspense thriller.
Inspector Lindsay Boxer of the San Francisco Police Department suddenly finds herself in the middle of two horrifying situations: The first is that she’s just learned she has an often-fatal blood disease. The second is a double homicide case she is now heading up that involves the murder of newlyweds on their wedding night. Burdened with Chris Raleigh, a new partner reassigned from the mayor’s office, Lindsay finds that she has too much to deal with and turns to her best friend, Claire, the head ME on the case. Claire offers helpful advice and human, friendly contact amid a job filled with violence, cruelty, and fear Libro 1st todie – First todie.
Samir –
How in the world is he a best-selling author? His characters are shallow, his writing is mediocre, and when he writes about romance it feels mechanical and formulaic. This book had a twist at the end, but it was the worst sort of twist – the kind that you can’t really predict because he probably didn’t think to add it until after the book was already written – leaving out any traces of foreshadowing. I haven’t read any of his other books and don’t plan to now. When you have as little time for leisure reading as I do, you waste as little time as possible reading crap.
Also, he uses too much vulgarity and too much sex. It isn’t even romantic sex; it’s cheap.
I recommend this book only to people who have already read every other book in the world and would rather read something they haven’t read then reread a good book.
