This book sucked eggs. Where's the continuity? It came out after <i>Freshman Fury</i>, but there's no mention of KC witnessing Brooks falling to his death, or Winnie's miscarriage.
It also has some insipid kidnapping plot and Lauren sucking up to her parents. Lame.
<2013> Nice ableism there, Sarah.

Mar 9, 2018
The latest letters to Sherlock Holmes involve translating common nursery rhymes. Couple that with a kidnapping, and Reggie Heath is going to have to put on his detective hat again. The beginning could have been a little better, but once this book got going, it was a wild, fun ride.

AKA that movie that they deleted Kevin Spacey from.
This was a 2+hour movie about the kidnapping of J Paul Getty II. It dragged on, I actually checked my watch during the movie, which I rarely do. They could have probably cut out a good hour to actually make it exciting. There was very little tension. However, maybe the reason I didn't feel any tension was because I knew how it would end.

Reading this book is fine until you remember the girl you're reading talk about sleeping with her father, doing drugs, being trained to be a prostitute after kidnapping until you remember this girl is meant to be 10 years old, only 14 by the end of it. I find it horrible to think of a girl in this position, be it at any age, let alone a child going through these vulgar acts and giving her takes on them.
Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2065 KP) rated Slay Ride (Christopher Miller Holiday Thriller, #1) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
A complaint about a bad shuttle driver leads to a kidnapping and possible murder. Meanwhile, FBI agent Christopher Miller is called back to the field for a robbery that is more than it appears. Yes, these two plots cross, and the suspense keeps the pages turning. However, I found the language and gore in the book to be too much for my tastes.

Follow up to 2019s 'Murder Mystery's, with this one seemingly just slipping in with not much in the way of publicity.
It's also a bit of a misnomer this time around - it should really be called 'Kidnap Mystery's - with the Spitzes (who have now quite their jobs and set up a detective agency) caught up in investigating the kidnapping from their own wedding of a returning figure from the 1st movie.
Which, if you've seen, you know what to expect from this.

Watched today another movie on Disney plus that I hadn’t ever seen till now is it any good yes it’s rather good dark comedy about kidnapping that goes wrong and the husband who’s glad she’s gone. Casting wise Danny Devito is perfectly cast as the husband as u watch his delight at the thought he might not see that bitch again and then there’s Bette middler as the wife who gives the kidnappers trouble no end overall good afternoons comedy
