BooksInMirror | Feb 19, 2024 |   ) MartyFried | Oct 9, 2022 |  ) MJWebb | Sep 22, 2022 | But when stuff started to happen... Gosh, who actually solves anything with just killing everyone on their way? I mean, OK, bad guys there want to get rid of a "complication", but when it goes wrong they just start to make a veeeery big pile of bodies. What the hell? Like no one would ever notice tons of people mysteriously killed? So the second half of the book I was mostly wanting it to finish already and even skipped some pages, because OH COME ON. (  ) alissee | Dec 8, 2021 | The two main characters are brothers who recently lost their father - one is schizophrenic and has an obsession with maps - memorizing every street of every city using his computer (google maps). As he's clicking down a street, he notices something odd in a window, convinces his brother to explore, and trouble follows. Definitely recommend it. ( ) Terrie2018 | Feb 21, 2020 |
The surprise plot twists in Trust Your Eyes fall into the following categories and numbers: plot twists the reader can see coming, three; twists the reader might, with a little effort, anticipate; five; plot twists that nobody could figure on in a million years, 364. With the book, Barclay emerges as the writer in the thriller business with the most wicked skill at pulling the rug from under his readers. The plot gets going when a computer nerd, working with a program not unlike Google Earth, spots a murder in progress in New York City. He and his brother investigate, and the surprises commence. And, oh yes, the nerd happens to be a good-hearted schizophrenic. Some days, all you really want is for someone to tell you a wicked-good story...Barclay can’t resist over-plotting an already complex story, but his propulsive narrative style drives right over these bumps. He’s also shrewd enough to slow down the pace for some credible characterizations...laying the groundwork for the knock-your-socks-off ending. Ist enthalten inAuszeichnungen
