Firstly, let’s look at the writing style. Here, the author is very competent..The author also understands pacing and how to develop characters through speech...plenty of ‘showing’ and not ‘telling'. All of the characters, even the secondary, jump off the page...The ending of the book with Gunther was particularly well-written and touching...I recommend this book.
A "Wishing Shelf" Book Review
A Columbia grad student’s dead—neck broken. A young actress’s dead—bones smashed. The police charge a Jurassic-sized bodybuilder Gunter Hoffmann based on his strength and other evidence. PI Vinnie Briggs and his associate, Rita Light, know Gunter and know the police jumped at the obvious.
Vinnie and Rita identify the terrorists that framed Gunter, but can’t prove it—not by conventional means. But they must make the connection or many will die and Gunter faces life in prison.
