Hayes.The rest of the story is like a unwinding yo yo a lot of ups and downs before it finally spins to a stop. Its an interesting way to start a book usually this happens closer to the end not in the first paragraph. The book begins with our lead character Archie realizing he has been drugged and captured by Gretchen the serial killer. It leaves you feeling just a tiny bit off but not in a way you can easily explain. The relationship between the two characters is enticing. The protagonist draws such sorrow and pity from you that you want to rescue him however you can. Not only is it a well written book but its the first one I have found that has a female serial killer as the antagonist. The very next day I made the trip to the local bookstore and came home with the first in the series. Lo and behold it was a real book and a real writer. I mean what does a mystery writer read? I enlarged the image on the screen until I could make out the title and then I whipped out my Google-fu. I became curious about what he was reading. Castle was waiting for his daughter to come home from her first date and he was reading a book. I am not sure what prompted me to pause the show at this particular scene but I am glad I did. We loved it and began to watch it regularly. Soon though someone told us about this show called Castle and it was staring a favorite actor. My Hubby and I were huge firefly fans and when a certain company decided that only one season was necessary we were left with nothing to watch. Let me go back to the beginning and tell you how I came upon this book. Sometimes you get lucky and find a series of books that is so well crafted that you cant put it down. I don’t care for easy predictable who done its nor do I like the ones where I feel I need a college degree to solve it. Finding a good mystery can be a real challenge. There is something intriguing about the hero racing against time to solve the mysterious crime. I must admit I love a good murder mystery.
