So, I started a new book this week “From the Corner of His Eye” by Koontz. You know me and my horror novels. I have to say, though, it has not really hooked me and I am already halfway through. The one thing that is interesting is that has some psychological twists, like the exploration of spontaneous homicidal impulse that is fairly scary. I don’t think that I would go out of my way to recommend the book, however.

I also finished about three others in the past few weeks. One is called “Messiah” by Boris Starling. It was a crime thriller. The main character is a tortured DI named “Red” Metcalf, who is a sympathetic and interesting character. The story line was full of twists and turns, and had a lot of wonderfully descriptive London scences. Overall, I would recommend this one for your Bearish, except it does have one or two passages that are “that thing that they did on ER…” Nothing that a vetran of several CSI episodes could not handle!
