The Lightning Rod: A Zig & Nola Novel

characters are all a hodge podge of times and places. no clear plot. no story life and just a general sense of confusion. i tried, i read over 100 pages. what a waste of time, nothing was any clearer after 100 pages. i wish i had that time back,

5 stars, Exciting Stand-alone THE LIGHTNING ROD (ESCAPE ARTIST, #2) by Brad Meltzer When the truth comes out, why a man was murdered, there can be all sorts of reasons why. Not much is as it seems. Mystery, thriller, crime, family woes, friendships, death of a child, there is something for everyone in this novel. Since I didn't read book #1, I was happy to find out that the Escape Artist Series Books are all stand-alone. It was easy to jump right into the story and know who was who, since some of the characters carried over from the first novel. Zig Zigarowski, a mortician, and Nola Brown an army artist team up, almost nonchalantly to solve the mysteries surrounding the death of Nola's friend Archie Mint. I liked Nola the best from the book, especially her artistic abilities. Many thanks to ##williammorrow for the print complimentary copy (which looks nothing like the paperback version, released) of #thelightningrod I was under no obligation to post a review. #mystery #thriller #murders #adventure #action #adult #escapeartistseries #favoritebooks
