Collecting the Dead by Spencer KopeMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
I just finished reading this intriguing and unusual book. The main character, called Steps for a reason that the reader learns as the story goes along, has a special talent that makes him a human bloodhound. I wasn’t sure how this very not mainstream talent would play in the mainstream book at first, but it was almost perfect. The other characters were great too, some eclectic and some pretty normal. I have a feeling we will be learning more about each of the characters as we go along in the series. Well, what I assume will be a series! The writer seems to have a great sense of humor, and that fact that came out, even while tracking a serial killer. It made the pages fly by, instead of slogging slowly. I can’t wait to learn more about this trackers “gift”, and more about his family and friends. Even the small unimportant characters were interesting to read about… I actually had time to sit and finish this book once I got started, glad I did, I was finding it hard to put down. Highly recommended.
