Crashing Heat – Richard Castle

More than 2 years since the last novel, and 3 years since the end of Castle, I was a bit surprised to see that there was a new Richard Castle novel in the works.  In this installment, a dead student found in Jameson Rook’s bed makes him a murder suspect.  Heat takes time off to travel upstate and prove her husband innocent.

When I saw that there was a new Castle novel coming out, I ordered it immediately.  I was looking forward to another chance to interact with the thinly veiled versions of the characters from one of my favorite TV shows.  While this entry wasn’t the best of the series, the main mystery was satisfying enough.  I don’t know if there are any more plans to continue the series, but I hope they do.  It is a nice opportunity to check in with old friends.
