"If something isn't aesthetically pleasing or interesting, doesn't require skills I do not have, and makes a stupid point stupidly, I don't appreciate it as art. That doesn't make me a philistine. It makes me a non-rube."

The One with Killer Weekend

63. Title & Author: Killer Weekend by Ridley Pearson (369 pages)*
Genre: Fiction--Thriller
Completed: 1 November 2008

Summary & Review: 
Earlier in Sheriff Walt Fleming's career he saved the life of a woman when he was just a rookie police officer. Now, this same woman returns to Sun Valley, Idaho, as the Attorney General of New York to announce her candidacy for president at a glitzy weekend conference, and Walt is, once again, who will have to protect her from an assassination threat.

I thought this book had a creative, fast-moving, and interesting plot. Plus, Pearson was a talented storyteller so I enjoyed every page of this better-than-average thriller. 

Rating: 8.0
