Tom Reed and Walt Sydowski

review 1: Another amazing thriller from author Rick Mofina, "Blood Of Others", is a hard driving thriller packed with suspense. The third of the Walt Sydowski/ Tom Reed series this one goes from grisly murder to national security before it ends. Almost a spinster, Iris Wood is found brutally murdered by stabbing, and redressed into a bridal gown in the front window of a bridal shop. In addition to several stab wounds in the heart, the killer has removed Iris' face. Veteran reporter Tom Reed again hanging by his shoestrings onto his job by editor Clyde Brader must keep coming up with exclusive stories and get what the police seem to miss. Walt on the other hand is forced to add a third member of his team. Ben Wyatt who has been on sidelines for about a year is ready for active field... more work. Ben's partner was badly shot and almost died the prior year, and most cops think Wyatt did not save his partner and shyed away in fear. Lt. Leo Gonzalez wants Wyatt on Walt's team, especially since he is a computer whiz. What a fantastic story line to be sure. This killer known as the "Scarecrow" because of the scars on his face is one scary monster. He seems to work from coast to coast, and to date left 12 women dead in his wake. Is it really 12 or is the actual number globally much higher ? The interaction between Reed and Sydowski is as outstanding as the previous books were. Intense and lively dialog keep this one roaring through the pages at breakneck speed. Even the bad guys like Clyde Brader is a rooting interest to get what's coming to him. I very much enjoyed reading "Blood Of Others". It's now my favorite Reed/ Sydowski book so far. I'd highly recommend anyone to check out this series by author Rick Mofina. It's nail biting, harrowing, and just pure fun to read. 5 stars out of a possible 5 stars- This is a GOODIE !. I'm jumping right into the fourth book of the series, "No Way Back" right away. So far only 5 books are in this series. I sure hope the author spins out a few more ! Even the character Ben Wyatt may make a good protagonist for a stand along book himself ! Check this out and enjoy as I did. You're gonna love it !
review 2: Loved this book! Definitely a super suspense/thriller. The author did a wonderful job putting the reader in the heart of the plot by bringing his characters to life. The relationships between Reed, the fallen from popularity reporter, Wyatt, the unjustly disgraced detective, and Sydowski, the detective on the case of the murdered women, were realistic and in depth, as was the touch of romance between Wyatt and Olivia that gave the story added appeal.The plot is filled with exciting turns, and keeps the reader on the edge of his seat throughout. Great read on a cold weekend!Highly recommend. less
