Protection

Alex Cahill and Logan Finch #4

by G.J. Moffat

Could you spot a killer? Logan Finch's life depends on his ability to do just that. He's a bodyguard whose clients rely on his talent to head off trouble before it even starts. Now he's got his toughest job yet - protecting American serial killer Chase Black who has been released from prison on a technicality and is in London promoting his memoirs. Colorado Homicide Detective Jake Hunter, the man who put Black in jail, thought that he could spot a killer. Now he's not so sure. And the more he investigates the more he wonders whether a miscarriage of justice really did occur. The trouble if Black is innocent the real killer must still be at large. Finch becomes convinced that someone is hunting Black, and as violence erupts on both sides of the Atlantic he finds himself caught between his duty to a client and the instinct to survive the increasingly deranged individual that wants him dead. Protection is a terrifying journey that reveals the true darkness residing in the human heart.

Love this Logan Fitch series. Sadly this seems to be the last one.

Really enjoyed this book the two cases between USA and UK worked really well, good linking of storylines.

[Sandra · Rating 3 out of 5]

Fast paced and well-plotted, albeit slenderly, this nevertheless felt like the fourth in a forced more-that-four book deal, and an over-hastily written one at that. With more than a bit of padding. For example, was it really necessary to describe everyone who appeared in terms of height?
'Daisychain' was magnificent, this falls far, far behind, and the end felt more of a cop-out than the tantalising can't-wait-to-read-the-next that it obviously means to be.

A fast-paced, cross-Atlantic story, with a nice twist in the tail. I just felt a lil sorry that so many innocent lives were lost in the process of solving the mystery, no thanks to a technicality. surely justice should be better served. But then again, not always.

a real page turner - wiil Chase Black return in another book - I hope so.
