Critique de RedIzaBzh
PS : j'ai écrit la critique en anglais parce que j'ai lu le livre en anglais, il n'a pas encore été traduit
Just like I said recently, Tess Gerritsen's books are getting better and better. They are easy to read but so carefully built. Maura too is getting better ! But like I also said, I should write my review as soon as I finish the books and not postpone, especially during holidays with my daughters. Or I should take more notes. Anyway, I'll try to come up with a review :
I felt some things were weird about Holly, especially how she kept calling her father "Daddy" at her age. I had one or two different plots all staged in my head about how the book would turn out, but the author sent me on the wrong tracks and completely surprised me. Amalthea comes up again in this story in a way you never see coming. And what really happened at The Apple Tree ? This novel includes children, but they're not like everything you've ever read - I know I haven't.
An excellent new instalment that kept me guessing all the time and kept me on my toes !
"Monsters came in all shapes and sizes, and the most dangerous are the ones you never suspect, the ones you think you can trust. Middle-aged women like (spoiler) were too often overlooked, so invisible that they failed to show up on anyone's radar. Everyone focused on the pretty young girls and the strapping young men. But older women were everywhere, hiding in plain view.
Decades from now, would Jane be just another among the gray-haired legions of the invisible ? Would anyone look closer and see the woman she really was, focused and formidable and perfectly capable of pulling a trigger ?"
