Product Description

Review

Praise for Stephen White: 'Far sharper and more engaging than the smug Kellermans.' The Guardian 'Thrillers of the first order.' Nelson DeMille 'Psychological suspense at its best.' Jeffery Deaver

Product Description

Psychologist Alan Gregory has a new patient: Gibbs Storey, whose looks turn grown men into dazzled adolescents. She tells Alan that she thinks her husband, Sterling, may have murdered one of her friends. Blandly recounting a history of dangerous sexual encounters, Gibbs stuns Alan with another revelation: she thinks there are other victims ...and that her husband will kill again. Struggling with a strict confidentiality agreement, Alan walks a perilous ethical line by revealing just enough to interest his detective friend, Sam Purdy, and start a search for a missing Sterling Storey and a string of innocent victims. But are they too late to stop more killings? Stephen White weaves together threads of a story that is both heartbreaking and truly terrifying. From the deadly danger that stalks Alan's family and career to the risks that Sam Purdy takes with his life, from the bonds that hold men and women together to the betrayals that tear them apart, BLINDED chillingly depicts a shocking evil that no one can see.

2.0 out of 5 stars Can I go watch the paint now?, 16 May 2007
By D. Devine-harper (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is/was my first Stephen White and Alan Gregory book, and a new genre from my typical selections. I was in the mood for some tense psychological thrills.

Now that I've finished the book, I'm still in the mood for some tense psychological thrills!

The whole thing seemed a bit of a farce really. I'd say a jolly jaunt, but I didn't find any jolly being jaunted. More a mixed bag of tragedies all thrown together, seemingly for the sake of distraction: Alan's wife, why not give her cancer! His fat cop friend, why not give him the cliché, failed marriage, and throw in a heart attack for effect! Add in a good dose of dumbness, and blend - on slow - for five hundred pages.

Actually, the characters themselves seemed interesting, but none of them - except Alan Gregory - received much development, and they were all rather forgettable. Possibly die-hard fans that have read other books in this series already know the details, but for me this book kept things shallow.

You may get the impression that I was not too impressed with this book. You'd be correct. Although, there were some parts that added a sprinkle of salt to draw out the flavour; and, this being my introduction to Alan Gregory and his world meant there was enough to keep me plodding past each mundane plot milepost until I reached the end. The expected twist at the end turned out to be quite interestingly crafted and added a flurry to the otherwise disappointing lack of tenseness or thrills; Plenty of psychology though, in a fly-on-the-wall kind of way.

The cover says, `Far more engaging than the Kellermans'. I have no idea who or what `the Kellermans' is, but based on this book being far more engaging than it, I'm fairly happy never to know.

If you want a read-on-the-train/bus/aeroplane book that doesn't require you to think very much or get too worked up with excitement, or maybe like the cop you're stuck in bed recovering from a heart attack, this could possibly satisfy you. Personally, I was looking for something meatier to get my head buzzing and heart pumping.

To be fair, as a book this was well written, and the author has had enough books published, so someone must like this stuff.
