The Blue is a quickly-paced book with an interesting premise--what if you couldn't read faces and somebody was trying to kill you?That alone is a spooky premise as you would never know when you're killer is around. It could potentially be anyone. Now that's a scary thought.The story starts off with a bang and ends with one as well. And in-between, you're constantly wavering on whether you're on the protagonist's side, or if you really don't like him at all, because the author truly made a character you both sympathize with and loathe at the same time. Now that's the work of a master storyteller.But if I have one complaint, it's in the person who is hunting Derek. Some of the scenarios he's involved in aren't entirely believable. Other than that, though, it's a phenomenal read. I recommend it highly.
