The Reckoning

I am shocked! One of my favorite must read author and I gave one star to his newest book.
I found it boring and tedious and didn't care about any of the characters or anything that happened to them.

The story of the war hero who was thought dead but survived the WW2 Bataan Death March came home and immediately planned a killing. When it was done, all he said was I have nothing to say. The legal courtroom story was ho-hum, no surprises and no defense though the lawyer tried his best with the jury to forgo the death penalty.

I can't discuss the ending nor the aftermath due to spoilers.
