Trust No One

I don't generally pick up thriller books.  They tend to be more graphic and disturbing than I want in my reading.  But I wanted to read something out of my comfort zone, and I had Trust No One in my Kindle library, so I gave it a try.  What I got was a well-crafted story that I was just sucked in to the tale.

Trust No One really challenged my mind as I was trying to solve the mystery right alongside Devlin and Falco.  The twists and turns took me on such a wild ride.  And then the couple chapters when the reader jumps into the mastermind's head is just so truly disturbing, but I had to keep going to see how it all wrapped up.

The character of Kerri Devlin took a little warming too.  She was just so overwhelmed between the murder mystery, breaking in a new partner and then turmoil at home that she was just rubbing everyone, this reader included, the wrong way.  While the series is called Devlin and Falco, at this point, Falco felt more like window dressing.  I mean, he had some uses, but I didn't feel like I really got to know him very well.  So hopefully that comes as the series advances.

I didn't know what to expect when I picked up Trust No One, but I ended up enjoying the book.  I'm still not sure if I'll continue this series and I can't say that thrillers are a new favorite... but I liked this one and would recommend it to fans of the genre.
