prepared to die by Peter Dudgeon
My rating: 2 of 5 stars
I really like books from UK authors. This one didn't really hold my attention because there were so many different angles and points of view. I really hate this kind of jumping around, and seeming disorganized plot. Somehow the author gets to the end, but I'm bumfuzzled as to how. The language gets foul at times that doesn't add to the plot or give any kind of impact.
This is not an Agatha Christie type of mystery that is well thought out and all the characters are well developed. The, I think, protagonist is a bit introspective for me. But there are so many different characters whose heads we pop into and out of that it's hard to keep track.
The premise is good. The writing is also fairly good. It's the editing that needs a lot of improvement.
I received this from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
