Explanation Supposing Books O Ella Muere
Patrick Davies solo ha querido una cosa en la vida: hacer una pelÃcula. Consiguió su oportunidad de vender su guión en Hollywood, pero justo después de eso, toda su vida se hizo añicos. Sus sueños de oropel se desvanecieron y Patrick tuvo que volver a un trabajo aburrido y a un matrimonio que no funciona.Una mañana recibe un DVD muy extraño en su casa. El DVD le demuestra que hay alguien observándolos a él y a su esposa, que los dos están siendo acosados y grabados por cámaras que están escondidas tanto dentro de su casa como rodeándola. Poco después empieza a recibir correos electrónicos de alguien que se ofrece a solventar el desastre en que se ha convertido su vida. Para Patrick es una oferta que no puede rechazar.
Sin embargo, no podrÃa estar más equivocado. Cada paso que da lo sumerge más en una red de intriga que amenaza lo poco que todavÃa tiene y valora en su vida. Casi sin darse cuenta, se encuentra atrapado por todos lados y la única manera de salir del embrollo es ser más listo que sus enemigos invisibles y ganarles jugando a su propio juego.

What a contrived mess of a book!If an international business developing whale confusing sonar wanted to kill a movie star who was also a sort of schizo environmentalist, they would just make him have an accident.In this book instead of the obvious they spend days (and hundreds of pages) trying to make a script writer look guilty of murder. Sheesh!Clearly this is designed as a vehicle for Bruce Willis or some Bruce Willis-wannabe. The script writer is tortured in nearly every manner imaginableSo I am finally getting around to catching up on some older reads of mine that I never reviewed online and I thought I'd start with a book from one of my favourite "suspense" authors Gregg Hurwitz. Or She Dies AKA They're Watching is another twisted tale this time following Patrick Davis a man on the edge, with marriage and work issues, who discovers he is being watched. Emails arrive that seem to offer some hope of reprieve but as Patrick takes on the challenges he faces greater and greater
It has always puzzled me how an author can write one excellent book only to have another of their books be a complete bomb. This has happened often in my reading lately and has happened with the books that I've just read of Gregg Hurwitz. His YOU'RE NEXT was a wonderful read and THEY'RE WATCHING, which I'm reviewing here, was "OMG, when will it ever end?!" OR, how the first half of the book can be readable/somewhat interesting and the second half reads like the instructions for a root canal.
When I first started this book I thought it would be really good. It was different than a lot of mystery/thrillers. For the first several chapters, the main character is trying to figure out who might be messing with him. On top of going through a tough time in his marriage and career it was interesting to see the scenarios he put forth. However, as the book went on, more and more less interesting characters were added and I began to lose interest and get confused with what became a pretty lame
Kept me pressing (e-turning the page). There were a few points that were guessable but exciting nonetheless.
I first discovered Gregg Hurwitz through his Orphan X series, which is easily one of my favorite thriller series in recent years. I enjoyed it so much that I've started reading his back catalog of standalone thrillers which are decent but aren't quite as good. This one is about a failed screenwriter who begins receiving DVDs in the mail with surveillance footage of himself. While the premise was intriguing (and I won't spoil the ending), I thought the reveal and the ending we're a little too
4.5 stars. An original, twisting, suspenseful thriller that I had a hard time putting down. Another excellent novel from Gregg Hurwitz.
