When life imitates art, it can be a good thing. For author Ben
Bookman, however that is not a good thing. Someone is copying the murders of
his most recent book. This understandably leads to him being a suspect for
these killings. What follows is a thrilling mystery of who is doing the crimes
and why. The book itself has several tropes that I am not really a fan of
(i.e., jumping from past and present, authors as the main character, and
problems that could be avoided if people just explained things), however, J.H.
Market makes it work in this book and I was able to get passed my hangups. When
the book jumps back to the past, it leaves little clues on what is going on and
gives more backstory to those involved. The
book was well written and did a decent job keeping me interested in the book,
but it was pretty early on in the book when I figured what was going on. It was
a good book to read but if I hadn’t read it I would have not missed anything
new. 3 out of 5 stars
