The Black Echo
by Michael Connelly
This was a book about a bank robbery committed by Vietnam veterans. The last 20% was fast-paced with a twist ending. The rest was pretty slow and took me a while to slog through. It also featured my least favorite plot device, main characters who are co-workers that start a relationship for the sole reason that they are a man and a woman who are in close proximity. Harry and Eleanor have almost nothing in common (besides the Vietnam connection which they both divulge to each other entirely too early). She constantly comments on his smoking, he doesn’t seem to think about her at all. When you read things like this, you realize why people don’t think men and women can work together.
