4.0 out of 5 stars I'm impressed!, 1 April 2006
By A Customer
I only happened to pick up 'Bleedout' in a rush at Victoria station, and I am so glad I did. I read a lot of books in this genre and have to say that this was a revelation... why haven't I heard of the author before?! The characterisation is superb,the plot kept me guessing until (nearly) the very last. Certainly one to watch. Buy this book, you won't be disappointed.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Glimpse of Evil, 14 April 2005
By Maryly La Follette (Annapolis, Maryland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Bleedout (Hardcover)
I have read all of Joan Brady's previous works so I was not entirely prepared for Bleedout. That said, I read this new work of fiction with great interest and was not disappointed. Comments of a general nature include: The book is well written and well structured. It is obviously well researched and demonstrated the author's breadth of interests and knowledge.

What most drew me into the book and kept me turning from chapter to chapter, were the characterisations of David Marion and Hugh Freyl, as well as their relationship and interaction. These were cleverly illustrated by the living Marion and Freyl, speaking from the grave. I felt as though I had a relationship with Marion, one which swung from initial repulsion to eventual liking and admiration.

Central to this book is the author's expert study of the psychological aspects of Marion and Freyl. I was not disappointed by the human beings which were presented. One might wish that Marion were not so angry and aggressive in his approach to life, but then it must be very difficult to be otherwise given his childhood experiences.

The colourful description of Springfied, Illinois was enough to ensure that I shall never set foot in that town. What an unpleasant place without, it would seem, any redeeming graces.

I would happily recommend this book to friends and family. In fact I have already suggested to my brother that he get Bleedout for his next flight from Washington DC to Hawaii. A good read.

1.0 out of 5 stars Does not ring true, 3 Jun 2007
This review is from: Bleedout (Hardcover)
Reading this book forced me to ask whether British readers are really as unsophisticated as this author seemed to think when she felt compelled to put British idioms into the mouths of American characters. For instance, American police might frame you, but they do not "fit you up" for anything. Nor do American police keep "murder books" like the British police. Nor would an uneducated American ex-con like "Tony" use the word "manservant" (and his poor grammar tells us he is uneducated, regardless of how poorly Brady renders that dialogue). Finally, Joan Brady has a character claim that he was clerk to Chief Justice Earl Warren "twelve years ago" (twelve years before the events in the novel take place), which would have required Warren to be presiding over the Supreme Court some twenty years or so after his death. Apparently having a cousin who is a former assistant DA in Los Angeles was not enough to capture all the disturbing anomalies I have found so far. I've only managed to read half the book and am not sure I will be able to force the rest of it down; at least not if I can get a delivery from Amazon fast enough to get something else to read. The dialogue drags, the plot plods and the book simply does not ring true. Considering all the fine British and American crime/suspense writers out there, there is no reason to waste time or money on this mish-mash.

1.0 out of 5 stars A real struggle to finish....
Everything about this book appealed to me before I read it. The back cover endorsements, the story outline, the US setting (I love US crime thrillers). What a let-down. Read more
