A brilliant killer who's telling a story in ten different parts is taunting the FBI. Patrick is on the case while simultaneously testifying at an old nemesis's trial dredging up bad memories & possible lies. Juggling that and Tessa's quest to find answers to her past keep Patrick on his toes. Great twists and turns and I was surprised at who the killer was. Cant' wait to read the next in the series ( ) The Knight is the third book in Steven James’ Bowers Files series. James has created another thrilling, chilling, and definitely creepy novel for those who are not faint of heart. I grimaced and cringed at some of the scenes. While it certainly can be read as a standalone, I would suggest reading the series in order. James slowly develops his characters and their relationships as the series progresses. There are also references to past and future cases that won’t spoil things for the reader, but can be used as clues for each subsequent book. The Knight uses a medieval classic as its basis for the crimes, making the perpetrator a very intelligent and sophisticated villain. Patrick is again up to the challenge despite very personal attacks. I never once guessed just who the bad guy was; it caught me completely unaware. This novel is masterful in its plotting and characterization, and one of James’ best. Highly Recommended. Audience: adults. Originally posted at The Scribbling Sprite. Where do I begin with this one? Anything I say about it feels repetitive. I've already gushed about how amazing the first two books are. Guess I'll just have to say it again. This book was a-maz-ing! Deja vu, anyone? Well, it was. You might say, "well, why the four stars then, Ally? If you LOVED it, why not five?" Patience. I'll get to that. You see, I did something stupid. Not like, 'riding your bike into a ditch' stupid. But still. Be prepared to gasp in horror. What I did was infinitely worse. When I finished The Rook, book 2 in the Bowers Files, I went to the library. I sought out books under the name Steven James...and I picked up The Bishop. Not The Knight, but The Bishop. Book 4. And I read it. All 523 pages, before I even touched The Knight. Have you finished rolling your eyes at my idiocy? Good. See, the thing is, I THOUGHT The Bishop was book 3. I didn't even suspect a thing until I signed onto Goodreads to rate it and discovered that sneaky little four. I was devastated, as you can imagine. Apparently, the author is quite talented at making all of his books readable even when you haven't read the previous ones. Which is a good thing really, and my enjoyment of The Bishop wasn't affected in anyway. But The Knight was a bit changed for me. The mystery was still there, but some of the suspense was lacking for me. Added to that, a couple of my favorite characters were missing for most of the book. Still, it was a thrill, and the ending still managed to completely throw me off. I know that was a really long rant just to let you know that it was really probably better than I thought it was. But hey, gotta change things up a little bit every now and then! I'll end this by highly recommending this series(IN ORDER). You won't regret reading it. Content: Some gruesome scenes. Definitely not for the weak stomach. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
