Movie Rating

A gritty hard thriller about a cop killer in London. It has a great well known UK cast, more TV than film though. The only real problem is the story they have to work with, it's a bit weak at best. As a result there is very little suspense in the plot, it also has a fairly low budget feel to it. It's ok for those who like a quick fix of action/thriller with a simple basic story. Others might like a bit more substance in the plot, which could have made it a lot better.

I’m a sucker for thrillers and this is no exception. This one is a plot twist and a very good one. She makes you think that the real antagonist is the chiefs daughter when the real culprit is the last person you’d expect it to be. This book had me on the edge of my seat and I could not put it down. If you enjoy a good mind blowing, plot twist, this is the book for you

So, one night a gypsy fortune-teller(snerk) is super-bored and decides to tell one of her customers that he is a vampire(as you do) and will have to find his true love to have eternal happiness.

Enter our heroine. Darcy is being dropped off by her harridan mother because her honeymoon is more important than her kid and OOPS! her aunt is gone because she's a money-obsessed jerkface.

The only problem I have with this book is it's predictability. If I gave you a description of the characters, you'd know right away which one is the killer.

Suspense

Detectives McCabe and Savage, in the first of this series, are on the hunt for a sick individual, murdering young healthy women and removing their hearts. After they find the body of a young missing girl, they are informed another woman has gone missing already, and the clock starts ticking... they have a week to find her and taking the killer down.

Interesting read, like the characters but would like to see more character development and the partnership between McCabe and Savage... is it sexual, friendly... it’s hard to ascertain.

Well written and gripping, finished in 24 hours.
