Review: Short thriller that feels a bit phoned-in
Rating: 3 out of 5
Date: 05 28, 2013
This collaborative short story delivers the twists, turns, and thrills promised in the item description, but it feels as if the hearts of the authors weren't fully in it.Peterson delivers the first half of the story from the point of view of a young woman, on her way to a party at a stranger's house, who loses track of her friend.  Konrath delivers the end with his signature gore (fans ofSerialwill know what to expect).But the entire exercise makes a lot more sense when you reach the 60%ish mark and the exortations to buy the full-length collaboration between the two authors begin.  I downloaded this story for free and enjoyed reading it.  I don't think I would have been so happy if I had paid for it.
