I have mixed emotions about Killer Weekend. It’s the start of a new series for Pearson. The novel begins with a flashback to eight years earlier when rookie patrolman Walt Fleming saves the life of Attorney General Elizabeth Shaler. Returning to present day, now a sheriff, Fleming is tasked with helping to protect Shaler, who’s about to announce her candidacy for president. The novel is relatively fast paced and certainly action packed. But, with the exception of Fleming, character development was minimal and I’m hoping the next in the series, Killer View, will do a better job of fleshing them out. All in all a good read but my vote is still out on the series.
