Review--Touch by Mark Sennen 5/2/14

TouchTouch by Mark Sennen
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

**2.5 stars**

Detective Inspector Charlotte Savage is investigating rape cases where the women were drugged and then dumped.  When one of those victims, a student, who was supposed to be headed back home, is found dead, the case starts to change.  When a second body turns up much like the first, DI Savage is none too happy.  Now another girl has been reported as missing.  Can Savage find her before it's too late.


I read Touch because the author was doing a Q&A with our group here A Good Thriller.  I usually enjoy these types of books, but there was something about this book that just made it not as good as I was expecting.  I enjoyed the story line, but there were a lot of characters and that detracted from the story.  I think I counted at least eight different detectives or police officers involved, not to mention crime scene investigators and coroners.  Then there were the different suspects in the case and the person who did the crime.  He gave each of his victims another name.  So it was all a little confusing.

At this time there are two other books in this series,
  Bad Blood (A DI Charlotte Savage Novel) by Mark Sennen
and   Cut Dead by Mark Sennen
.  According to the author there will be at least three more in the series.  I'm not sure if I'll read the others or not.

What's in a Blog??

So, I've tried this before and now I'm going to do it for real!!  I've decided that I can take a few minutes every morning to post my little bit about what I'm reading.

This week, I'm listening to The Weird Sisters by Eleanor Brown.   It's the story of the three Andreas sisters who have all returned home "to help take care of their mother".  They will each find out that the reasons they all came home were for something else entirely.   Will they be able to overcome the hurdles in their life?


The other book I'm reading is Touch by Mark Sennen.  Mark is a British author that was brought to my attention via my group on Goodreads 'A Good Thriller"(check it out)!  This book is about Detective Inspector Charlotte Savage.  This is the first book in a series.  In Touch, Savage is trying to find a killer/rapist who is dropping dead bodies all over the place.  If you are down with British lingo, then you will enjoy this book tremendously.   I, have had a bit of trouble with that part of the book myself, otherwise, it's going pretty good so far.

That is all for today!! I hope I will get followers to my blog and that I will be able to keep up with it!
