4.0 out of 5 stars Infamous Last Case!, 11 Sep 2001
By Rebecca Brown "rebeccasreads" (Clallam Bay, WA United States) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Epitaph (Hardcover)
William Riskin is an old fogey - full of memories, self-mockery & self-pity until he pays his respects at a funeral home & stumbles upon the deadly case his old-time partner was working on.

This partner was from another time of Paris, France in the pre-WWII years. He has a history veiled & dark that only one other person in all of America knows & William is about to meet that person & discover who this partner really was.

Epitaph is not just a good thriller - it is a work of fast, funny, furious deception as the hero walks the slower pace of the aged & infirm even as his mind races a mile a minute!

With a tantalizing view of life from the rocking chair of retirement, James Siegel weaves a horrid, humorous & taut tale of desperate times feeding desperate hungers.

William Riskin is a grandfather with whom I enjoyed keeping company!

1.0 out of 5 stars Epitah, 9 Jul 2006
By Louise Bensted (kent UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I think James Siegel has lost the plot, with this book. I read half the book trying to get into it but found it so slow and boring, I gave up. I normally love his books, Derailed was fantastic and now they have made a brilliant film of it and Detour was also brilliant. Both books I couldn't put down. Let's hope his new one, in September is another book, like the first 2.
