Dave Lewis is a man with a history. Haunted by his brother's murder when they were children, and scarred by his parents' grief, he's built a bitter life denying everything they ever stood for. He spends his time working as a magician, running a cynical magazine that derides his parents, New Age beliefs, and drowning his sorrows over his lost love, Tori. He's trying to convince himself the past is the past. A promise he made to Tori has got him into trouble before, and Dave's determined to move on and not let that happen again.

He's directed his hatred towards the one man he sees as responsible, but he has other priorities right now. A killer is stalking the city, abducting girls and sending texts and emails to their families before he kills them. When Dave Lewis appears to connect both investigations, it's an opportunity Currie can't resist...… (more)

Quite similar to his other story 50/50 Killer in some ways. Still an interesting story. I enjoy his work. ( )

A book I read almost in one sitting.
A nice read, but sadly it was quite a predictable plot. Not really special, so I think this book will soon sink into my mind's '13 in a dozen-section'. ( )

Rule Britannia! Britain may have gone to the dogs generally but the Best of British is always Simply the Best, as a recent batch of thrillers proves: anyone who received a book token for Christmas should consider investing in one the following…

Cry for Help can be seen as a telling indictment on the shallow and transitory nature of electronic friendships: Facebook, Mxit and other online groups have proved a poor substitute for real human friendships but, increasingly, it is the way in which many people interact.

Dave Lewis is a classic fugitive, sought by the police while the real killer runs free. A fan of internet dating sites, Dave seems the obvious culprit when several of the women he met online are killed, and he is the only common denominator.

A good read but notable more for the questions it poses than for plot excellence: e-mails and SMSs have almost replaced even telephonic communication from our lives, and actual living contact is increasingly less common. Reassured by electronic messages, how long would it take any of us to realize a friend was missing?

Good books, good plots, good writing, good research, good characters and good questions: the Best of British has it all and guarantees you a good time. ( )
