My 4 Star Review…
Safe Enough by Lee Child is an assortment of short crime fiction stories. While some of them captured my attention, others read like book summaries. For example, a few did not flesh out characters, settings, etc. Secondly, in some of the novelettes I wanted to visualize the story more.
“Ten Keys” with Octavian has a nice spin to it. Very fast dialogue that makes up for the first story which I believe didn’t have a single set of double quotes. I also liked “Shorty and the Briefcase” and oddly found the beginning to have a comical element, even though Shorty got shot lol.
I received this book through Net Galley and was not required to give a positive review.
