thank you for introducing this author to me, kasenka!
I really enjoyed reading this crime mystery! The characters are well-defined and interesting, the case was creepy and it is very well written!

The cover blurb of this book had me intrigued;
"There was nothing special about San Diego detective Robbie Brownlow, until he plunged six storeys from a burning hotel. He was left with broken bones, a large scar, and synesthesia - a condition where words take on shapes and colours that indicate the speaker's emotions. "
.....but I'm sorry to say it's not lived up to expectations. For me, the Synethesia angle was really underplayed. While I didn't want chapter & verse on what colours & shapes Robbie was seeing in every conversation, a little more than "he saw the orange squares of deceit" would have been nice - how about his thoughts on what he'd seen? Surely as a detective he should be using this internal lie detector! All the references to Robbie's "talent" could be removed & it wouldn't make a difference to the tale....a reasonable story but for me it didn't fulfill it's potential.

Read as part of the 2011 ULTIMATE CHALLENGE (#154)- themed "Space & Time" read for November (seasons count -fall!!)
