Book Review: Nick of Time

Nick of Time
By Tim Downs

I have a wide amount of book preferences, from romance, to humor, to how tos, and books about bettering yourself, but at the end of the day, sometimes, you just want to get lost in an amazing book, and that’s just what happened when I decided to read this book!!  I have a love and soft spot for books with great descriptions, thrilling plots, and awesome twists and turns.  This book delivered on all levels!  Nick Polchak is a bug man, a forensic entomologist a career built around maggots, blow flies and decomposing bodies!  He’s a single guy, but it’s no surprise given his career choices!  However, Nick meets, and falls in love with a reclusive dog trainer named, Alena.  They decide to get married, but, Nick has disappeared!!  He’s gone off, chasing the murder of an old friend.  The closer he gets to catching the murderer, the farther he gets from his love, and almost wife Alena!  Although this book sounds firm and gruesome, but exceptionally written, and well thought out.  The characters were believable, the plot was cleaver, and it was an all-around pleasing mystery to read!  There is wonderfully witty dialog, and a plot twist at the end that you won’t see coming!!

I received a complimentary copy of this book from booksneeze.com in exchange for an honest opinion.
