The Never Game, by Jeffery Deaver
4.0
4 stars
The Never Game by Jeffery Deaver is a nail biting 3 day long investigation following Colter Shaw, reward seeker by trade.
It definitely has some ups and downs and at one point I was afraid that I was going to be disappointed by Deaver's definition as a "master of twists". Although credit where credit is due it definitely had me surprised and confused at times. The twists worked very well and did not seem stretched at all.
Moreover, this was one of the first thriller/mystery books I've read and having it set in the Silicon Valley I felt like it was a really great introduction to the genre to someone who was always pretty doubtful on the it.
Overall liked the writing as well with short and to the point sentences that mirrored the main character's personality very well.
