I am a new Robert Crais reader. Notice I say reader and not fan. The first Crais book I read was back in May and the book was "Suspect". I loved, loved, loved this book! Not just because it had a dog in it, ( I love dogs!), but also because it was an inspiring story and a thriller. I have recommended "Suspect" to many a patron. So, it was with great anticipation that I picked up "The Watchman." Don't get me wrong, it was a good book. Not one I had to struggle through at all, it did not make me drowsy or bored. It moved along at a good pace and the plot kept me guessing. Joe Pike does everything in his power to protect his assignment, a spoiled little rich girl who somone is trying to kill. Is it a drug cartel or something more sinister? Are they after her because of something she witnessed, or are they trying to make a point with someone else? "The Watchman" was not as great as "Suspect." However, I will definitely read another Crais book. I guess it remains to be seen if he makes me a fan.
