Robert Ward (1) (1943–)

Brilliant Manhattan anesthesiologist Dr. Peter Cross is also a crazed serial killer! OK, I'm not supposed to like this character, but the evil gets to be a bit much. Peter tries to love new nurse Debby, but only murder can fill his Space. Run, Debby, run!

After a while this book read like a tape loop: things seemed to just repeat unchanged and boring. I kept reading to see what would happen but shouldn't have. The central character was not likable and his story was mainly depressing. Along the way he destroys a couple of relative innocents and escapes the death, jail time and loss of his family all of which which he clearly deserved.

The Best Bad Dream by Robert Ward
5 STARS
It was a little different the villians of the story. I guessed some right and a whole lot wrong. It kept me guessing and surprised me at the end.
Their were a lot of characters that I did not admire and a few I did, but they where all were different.
Michelle and Jennifer were out riding bikes to Taos Publeo. Jennifer was mad at her sister so she wanted to think and be alone for 20 minutes and would meet her sister at Keva. Michelle went into one of the show more rooms and smoked a joint and fell asleep so she was late to meet Jennifer. Jennifer had disappeared but the bike was still there.
Michelle did not want to call the cops because she was a criminal and had a relationship with Jack from FBI. So called him. Jack was on vacation but she saved his life once and used that.
Jennifer was a nurse at a senior spa in New Mexico. So Jack was asking questions their. Also Michelle had come to N.M. to see her sister and do some business with bike gang. Their is also another bike gang in the aera so lots of suspects.
So Jack calls his partner that is also on vacation and talks him to come help. With some grumbleing he does come.
Jack left his 15 year old home with his father why he was away and the new libarian seduced him and got him to do a lot of things.
Their were prostutes,drug dealers, robbers,business leaders,dr.and nurses saw and heard a lot of terrible things that are out their in the world. But did not put the book down till I was finshed.
I was given this ebook in exchange for honest review.

Tedious. I may have enjoyed it more if I was taking drugs.
