HIT THE ROAD JACK (JACK RYDER SERIES BOOK #1)
by Willow Rose
4 stars

Laura Bennett is murdered and dismembered. Her husband was asleep in the same room, drunk and drugged with Rohypnol. He says he didn't see or hear anything.
Det. Jack Ryder is called in. He worked homicide in Miami, now he lives in Cocoa Beach - hoping to see little or no action. He is raising 3 children alone after his wife ran off a couple of years ago.
The author blends the stories together nicely, past and present to help you get inside the killer's mind. But it also makes the ending predictable.
I enjoyed the book and am about to read book two of the series. Slip Out The Back Jack.
Ms. Rose has proclaimed herself the "Queen of Scream". This is the second series and the 6th book I have read of hers. I like her writing but haven't found anything scream worthy yet.


If you have read this book, I would love to hear any comments.
