Primetime TV Book Reviews

Slipping into Darkness by Peter Brauner

 Review by Suzanne

This is a great crime-police detective book. It is well-written and the characters are interesting. Even though this is not technically about TV, I was asked to review it, so I did. It would make a great TV show or movie. 

What is unique about this story is how the author shows both the cop's point of view and that of the boy he arrested, as well. Both want to find the "real killer" eventually, but how they get there is very interesting. I don't want to spoil too much here for you because it has many shocks and surprises.

The cop suddenly learns he has a physical problem that may affect his future, which sends him into a personal and professional tailspin. The boy is let out of jail after ten years and has to make his way alone in a harsh world, with only his lawyer to help him. I would love to say more, but I can't. It's just that kind of book. Trust me, you will enjoy it if you like crime novels or mysteries. 

You will not want to put it down once you start!  It is a thrill-a-minute ride. I look forward to reading a lot more from this author. His writing and stories really grab me. Turn off your TV for a few hours and read it!
