3.0 out of 5 stars It Was hard to Stay Silent, Dec 10 2007
By Bernie Koenig (London, Ontario Canada) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Silence (Hardcover)
I have been a big fan of Perry. I have read most of his work and I really love the series with Jane Whitefield, the person who hwlps people to disapear and begin a new life. When I saw that this book had a different character but a similar theme I couldn't wait to read it.

The book is certainly not a bad book but it did not live up to expectations. The main character, Jack Till, is interesting, as is the person he helped disapear, Wendy harper.

But the book also spends as much time with all the characters, the bad guy behind everything, and the paid assassin couple, who, in many ways, were the most interesting characters in the book.

And perhaps that is the porblem with this book. When all the characters are presented equally, it is hard to know where to focus.

And because of the nature of the characters, I found the plot to be somewhat predictable. I usually don't mind predictable plots because I like my stories to be character driven. But when all the characters are presented equally, I had to focus more on what was happenning, rather than on who was doing what and why.

And so I did not stay silent when reading the book, but occasionally groaned.
