Review: Well-Written, Intense, but too Introspective
Rating: 3 out of 5

This is a murder mystery at it's worst (the situation, not the writing).  The author lets us follow the murderer, a broken soul affected so much by his childhood and by the Vietnam war, the small-town policeman who is severely affected by the murder, and various people who come in contact with the murderer.I found the first few chapters intense as the author sets the scene and sets the initial escape and actions of the murderer and other characters.  I became bored by the rambling introspection by each character and wanted to jump ahead to find out what would happen.The ending is bittersweet as some things end well and others continue a rapid decline.
