Pretty Good

Max Allan Collins is the best writer for the CSI novels so far, but Jerome Priesler did a great job. I did find it weird that the cast was split into the swing shift and graveyard shift again. I enjoyed this more than the previous book, In Extremis, by another author.

Excellent Read

Like another reader, I bought this as a reader of Preisler's Power Plays series, but have a much higher opinion of this book. Maybe because I've watched the show but never read the other novels,I had a clean slate going in. Whatever the reason, I thought the characterizations were right on and the dialog was crisp. There are small moments that reveal the "ghosts" these characters carry around--the scene with Sara in the campus quad, the one when Grissom thinks about religion, a couple with the non-CSI characters in the book. They gave me chills.
