No Questions Asked by Oliver Bleeck
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
A very good and engaging mystery. Thomas does and excellent job of painting the scenes and interacting the characters. The “Go-Between” is very well thought out and the mystery is solid.
This is also a tight book that tells the story with little extraneous scenes. There is one sex scene that seems odd in the context of the rest of the story. Wondering if the publisher pushed for the scene and that it was later added.
The extra characters kind of makes the bad person, or people, an easy choice, though there are a few shifts in the story that keeps the reader guessing and that makes a great mystery.
Bottom line: I recommend it.
