The Night Shift – Alex Finlay<\/p><\/div>\n

On New Year’s Eve of 1999, a tragedy at the local Blockbuster Video stuns a New Jersey town, especially when the suspected killer goes on the lam.\u00a0 Fifteen years later, a similar attack at a local ice cream parlor leads everyone to assume the killer has returned.\u00a0 While the local police investigate the new murders, an FBI agent looks into the older crime, hoping to find connections.\u00a0 Instead, she unravels a web of lies that ties more than those two crimes together.<\/p>\n

Ordinarily, I wouldn’t read two books from the same author twice within a month’s time, but the Chicago Public Library served up The Night Shift<\/em>, the second novel from Alex Finlay, just weeks after I read his first<\/a> outing.\u00a0 In some ways, this may have ended up being a good thing, as I was able to see some growth from Every Last Fear<\/em> going into The Night Shift<\/em> that I may not have recognized if it were months or years down the line.\u00a0 The downside, of course, is that I won’t get another crack at his work for quite some time.\u00a0 I look forward to what comes next and hopefully continuing the adventures of FBI Agent Keller.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
