Summary: ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT!!!
Review: All the bodies and blood and excitement MOFINA gave me in his first 2 books, are here again in BLOOD of OTHERS! And when I saw that JAMES PATTERSON, PUBLISHERS'S WEEKLY and PENTHOUSE liked his 3rd book, I decided to drive to my nearest bookstore (15 miles) to get my own copy. An irresistable plot, MOFINA is a top-notch story teller. He made me feel that much of this fiction.... just could be true?!! GREAT CRIME THRILLER! I couldn't put this one down!!

Summary: Impressive serial killer novel
Review: Serial killer thrillers are not necessarily for everyone. There have been so many mediocre attempts that readers have been turned off by them as a whole. However, I think there is always room for another if it is as well done as this latest novel by Rick Mofina.
In San Francisco, a lonely young woman is brutally killed. The audacity of her murder makes headlines. Detective Walt Sydowski leads the investigation. Among his crew is Inspector Ben Wyatt, a cop ostracized and blamed for the shooting of his partner when he himself failed to shoot an armed suspect because he claimed a child was being used as a shield by the criminal. The problem is that nobody believes him including Sydowski. Parallel to their investigation is Ben Reed, reporter for the San Francisco Star. Reed is under intense pressure from his editor to break exclusive news in the story. They all soon discover that a serial killer is at work prying on lonely women throughout the country.
Rick Mofina is a very talented writer capable of creating not only exceptional characters but a plot that is so riveting that pages literally fly by. The pacing is especially impressive. The story starts out quick, slows down for character development then accelerates to a rapid, yet satisfying climax. Rick Mofina is a news reporter and his writing skills are immediately apparent. His first book has been nominated for the Arthur Ellis award in Canada. So he is well regarded there. He deserves a large following in this country, as well. Highly recommended.

Summary: Couldn't put it down
Review: This book was fast-paced and easy to get envoloped in. There was never a dull moment and was hard to put down. It was so good that I just went and bought his other books and I can't wait to see if they are as good as "Blood of Others"!
