Dead Man's Bridge by Robert J. Mrazek
4.0
The story follows ex army Jake as he starts working as campus security. When someone is found hanged on campus know one believes Jake and his suspicions that this was murder. Faced with a race against time Jake struggles to solve the mystery before it’s too late.
I loved the fact that this book didn’t involve a email main character who was overcoming her past or a down and our cop in a struggling marriage. It was a brilliant refreshing change from a lot of thrillers out at the moment.
This was a fast paces plot with a great developing story, not your usual ‘whodunit’, it involved twists and turns, multiple murder and high stakes blackmail. Even better this is the first in a new series, and I love discovering a new series at the beginning.
I liked Jake and how rough around the edges he was, I mean there is nothing more attractive than an alcoholic, severely troubles ex army guy, am I right?
Although at times he was a tad indestructible and unbelievable at times, I’m definitely interested in seeing where JAke goes in the series.
And the highlight he has an aging dog as his best friend. I am there for that!! Dog companionship couldn’t be more up my street.
