About Me

I'm a reader who enjoys posting comments and recommendations about the books I read. You will not find a synopsis with my recommendations because you can just click on the book title for a link to www.goodreads.com for a synopsis and reviews by other readers. I prefer the 3 Reason format: the reason I chose to read it; the reason I liked (or disliked) the book; and the reason I recommend it.

The HuntThe Hunt by Jan Neuharth
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

I downloaded this book as a Free Friday selection in 2011, and it is not longer free.
This murder mystery is an entertaining read up to the point when a child was kidnapped; and that is when I say to Neuharth, there was no more reason to use a child as a victim in this plot than to have the horses owned by this protagonist threatened. I found the behavior of the protagonist to be exasperating. The exasperating behvaior may make him more realistic, but it does not make him to be more likable to me.
I recommend it to readers who want a mystery set in the world of Virginia's landed gentry. Neuharth currently has 3 novels in Hunt Country Suspense series.
