Suspect by Robert CraisMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
I read the Cole/Pike novel, The Promise, prior to this and was introduced to Scott and Maggie there. Getting their backstories here was great fun.
Maggie is amazing, and the parts from her POV help make her a real and substantial character. I am not sure how a whole novel that way would go for a dog's POV, but it'd be an interesting attempt!
Scott is a kind of a dope at times. He makes some bad decisions and things could have gone much worse for everyone. The plot itself is a bit far-fetched, and never really engaged me. But Scott's relationship with and rehabilitation through and with Maggie was what made the story. The moments between them were the best parts of the book.
The Cole/Pike novels are better; but I would read more Scott and Maggie -- if only for Maggie!
