A review by louvie
Dernier appel pour les vivants by Peter Farris

1.0

I really wanted to like it and I -for some reason- wanted to finish it to make sure I would not miss something. I finished the book and it looks like I did miss something by reading other reviews because I found the story to be boring and the characters to be stereotypical and dull.

I think I would have liked it more if the story had focused on Charlie and Hicklin instead of switching POV all the time. It would have helped build empathy and understand that Stockholm syndrome - father/son relationship. I did not care to read about all the other characters and the abundance of italics really put me off.
