Alex & Ozzie: Dark Horizon #2
What happened to Ozzie’s family? His wife and kids went missing without a trace after a short vacation that turned out longer than was expected….In panic Ozzie travels south to a small town where they were last seen…..but no one there will answer his questions……from then on things turned for the worst…..
I loved the first half in this story. Bit by bit we follow the Ozzie’s efforts to find his family, the tension is palpable and I felt for Ozzie not being able to get answers, even the sheriff did everything to thwart his efforts. Something was not right and Ozzie needed to find out why.
Now as for the second half I admit it did not touch me in the same way as the first part did. It seemed to me that Mr. Mefford ran out of ideas and rehashed the same old thing till finally he gave his drama the drive needed to make “Dead Silence” worth our while. Although by that time my mind had wandered too much to have stayed focused and by then the end couldn't come fast enough.
Ozzie is a good character and plays well his role as a private investigator and has all the attributes to give us and exciting saga but his latest escapade felt off beat and did not provide all the excitement I previously experienced…but it’s me, judge for yourselves you may think differently.
Not bad but by far not my preferred book by Mr. Mefford.
Thank you John, till next time.
