Richard Doetsch - 13th Hour, The - 8

Post by StefanY »

13th Hour, The

The 13th Hour is a well-written, fast-paced thriller with a very interesting and well thought out concept that seems a bit hokie at first, but really draws the reader in and doesn't let go!

The cool thing about this novel is that it works basically in reverse. The main character moves backwards in time throughout the day, one hour at a time, while trying to solve a series of crimes and other circumstances that keep leading to the deaths of those that he cares about.

This is a fairly riveting novel with characters that are likeable (while a bit too perfect to be believable, but hey not any different from a Patterson or Dan Brown novel!) and a fast-paced ever changing plot.

Lots of fun!
