Detective stories aren't usually on my bookshelf, but when I found out my coworker had written a novel, I wanted to read it.
From the first page, I was pleasantly surprised that the writing was excellent. I spend a lot of time reading for critique groups and beta-trades and this was well plotted and polished. The story itself kept me engaged and thinking through a quick, enjoyable read. The detective was an interesting character but I felt closer to the psychologist by the end. But my favorite part was the mystery--there was a perfect mix of clues that kept me guessing until the end.
His second book just came out so let me know what you think!
