This book was ok but I wouldn't write home about it. I found the whole thing rather predictable. Maybe it's just me ( )

This is a poor mans Linwood Barclay attempt.
Starts of quite good but then just gets silly and still has a few unanswered questions.
Main character is Jake Reese he gets attacked, his wife goes missing/might be dead there are some dodgy gangsters after him,bent cop, diamonds,trusted friends escape to Mexico. ( )

Interest catching thriller that had me reading through the night. ( )

I stopped reading when I found this book to be too annoying, but then got back to it after finishing another book.
A suspense, mystery tale. Jake, a young but reformed criminal, is working at a college teaching creative writing. He is attacked on the street by two men who sever one of his fingers. He has no idea why, but thinks it must be something from his past. Diane, his wife, takes off to Arizona soon after, he thinks she is spooked by what's happened and is going to leave him. But, she does return, only to die in a car crash, which Jake figures must have been set up by the people who attacked him. He tries to figure out what is going on, enlisting the help of a local organized crime figure who is loyal to him, having raised him after his father died. Jake goes to Arizona to see what his wife's state of mind was when she was there, and he contacts a psychic whose business card he found among his wife's possessions. He finds many unexpected things.
The story is fairly well constructed, but I found the character of Jake to be hard to believe. He is supposed to be a hot-head, acting on impulse and without common sense. But, most of the time when he is acting this way, he is too difficult to either like or understand. But, basically, I didn't find him believable. ( )

It was very entertaining, but I had some issues:

1. Predictable. I knew the wife wasn't dead.
2. She lies to Jake the whole time, and he chooses her over the man who raised him. Please. ( )
