fast plot

This is a short murder mystery at 57 pages.

I found that I enjoyed the female character, Allyson. I liked Tony but felt that his character was underdeveloped. The pace of the book was very fast and the relationships centered between Allyson and Tony, and Allyson and Rex. Because of this I would rate the book 4 stars.

I have rated it a 3 star book due to the formatting errors - some of the text was in red, sentences were cut off in the middle, and some paragraphs were centered. There were also grammar and punctuation errors.

If you like murder mysteries, I do not regret buying this if you feel you can overlook the above.

I downloaded this book thinking I'd read it "later." However, I was hooked by the first sentence of the first paragraph of this fast moving and well written story and couldn't put it down. I was sorry that it ended so soon! This is a very good read.

An interesting ittle read

Reviewed in the United States on August 14, 2013

Spotlighting Crime begins with an intriguing introduction as Allyson Barr describes how her fascination with crime was most likely the result of being born in prison. She took her first breath, as her mother took her last.

She was sent to a Catholic orphanage for the first five years of her life. The rest of her childhood was spent floating from one troubled foster home to another. Writing became her entertainment and a way of escape from reality.

Someone slipped her details of her unfortunate beginnings, and when she was older her research unveiled the story of her mother's criminal past, and her SOB prison-guard father. This is when her real fascination with crime began.

Her interest in writing led to a career in journalism and a job preparing orbits at a newspaper. When she began to write articles about criminals, it opened the door for a serial killer. Here the story turns dark as she witnesses crime scenes, and helps to track down the killer down.

Five Star Review by Jay Scully

Reviewed in the United States on November 29, 2013

I give this writer five stars. She knows what she is doing--how to construct a story, how to keep the reader engaged. I felt like it was
E.B. Sullivan meets Dean Koontz, but with a little more imagination. The novella takes you on a ride and never lets go. I thought it would take me all weekend, but I couldn't put it down and finished it in two setting. A highly recommended read if you enjoy a quick thrill. Author Jay Scully

First Novel ? good attempt

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 6, 2014

Verified Purchase

I really liked the idea of this, it has been done before but its a story that can always be done again but it all rushed along too quickly the romance part of it especially was unbelievable because it didn't build to anything it just suddenly appeared. I didn't buy into the characters motivations although the background on the main character was interesting and I felt something for her, I wasn't that concerned about her being in danger. Sorry this wasn't a book that I would want to read again but it wasn't awful.
