3.0 out of 5 stars A So-So Story, July 6, 2007
This review is from: Death in a Green Jacket (Paperback)
The buyers for Bartlett's "Hacker" novels are golf nuts (yes, I'm one) who read virtually anything on the subject of golf. This is the fourth in the series and I have read two of his earlier efforts. This is far and away his best so far and it still only reaches the so-so category. But to give credit where credit is due, he really is improving as a writer. Much more and better detail and a weaving of historically accurate information within the fictionalized story. If there is one thing that is truly needed, it is a better editor. Halfway down page 218 Hacker is told to meet a killer at 7pm and by the bottom of the page the time has somehow changed to 6pm. Was the killer confused? On page 235 Tiger Woods is paired with Ernie Els as the final group in the final round of the Masters. Yet, by page 244 Woods is now paired with a Casey O'Shea in the final round. This kind of inconsistency plagues Bartlett's books. He would do well to have someone proofread prior to publishing.
