Allan Folsom- Day of Confession 3.75 Stars
The Cardinal Vicar of Rome has just been assassinated and Harry
Addison’s brother has been listed as the number one suspect. Harry Addison in
Los Angeles, got a concerning message on his answering machine from his brother
whom he hasn’t spoken to in many years, right before finding out that his
brother was killed in a bus explosion. Rushing to Italy to bring his brother’s body
home, he finds himself being treated as a suspect in the whole plot. Throwing
him into a desperate race to save his own life, and get to the bottom of
things.
I hadn’t read anything by Folsom for a
while and quite enjoyed the return to his books. The characters were very well
crafted fitting exactly as needed, I felt like you could actually get to know
them. I also love how the plot is full of twists and turns, although he tells
you who the villains are pretty quick. I wish that he had left out most of the
villain stuff, as it would have been a lot more intense not knowing who to look
out for. I also found the constant shift from character to character to drag a
bit, prefer it when only a couple of characters are focused on, as it I find it
to be more nail-biting. The setting was great, who doesn’t want to spend some
time in Italy and Rome? I also would like
to let the author know that I highly doubt makeup would cover up nail scratches
to the face that drew blood. It was a very fast-paced read though, and I would
recommend it to thriller fans.
