Jeff prodded me into getting this, and I'm glad he did. This is the last of the six Tim Corrigan books.
I wasn't looking forward to reading this, but it turned out to be OK. Two smart young kids are released on a technicality from prison after committing a murder. Tim is assigned to guard them in a safe penthouse on the roof of a tall building. Naturally one of them gets killed. A Buck Rogers style jetpack is found on the roof of an adjacent building. I'm glad the writer at least made an effort; previous books in this series have been phoned in.
Tolerable. |

Only most of the "juvenile" books and a couple of oddities still to go, right Ed?  |

Yes. I'm going to post my thoughts on this in a little bit. |

Before you do, remember...
It's a quest. You have to read them all. It's that simple. |
