Before I Wake

If you have read any of Mark Frost's books - List of Seven and the Second Objective being my favourites then you should try and find this book. I'm about 2 thirds of the way through it. Eric Bowman is a name Frost used and one of things I always say about him is that he creates characters you really care about and then does the most terrible things to them and this book is no exception. It's a really cool premise, we know who the killer, is he states it on page one. The real cat and mouse game begins when NYPD star detective Jimmy Montone begins to suspect that Terry Keyes isn't just a writer researching his new book but a cold blooded killer. Montone risks his reputation and his life going up against Keyes and only one of them is going to come out of the encounter alive.

The bad news - this book is out of print so it is not easy to get but if you can get your hands on a copy this is well worth a read.
