The Tomb by F. Paul Wilson
3.0
Repairman Jack is the name he goes by, but he doesn't fix appliances. He fixes other stuff. Like when a mugger beats your grandmother half to death and steals a necklace from her, or when your elderly sister goes missing. Don't look for him in the phone book, or get a recommendation from the police. He doesn't work with the cops, he's not in the phone book; in fact, as far as the government is concerned, he doesn't exist. He pays no taxes and has no driver's license. Well, actually he has several, all in different names, but his real identity is a secret. But when you need someone on your side, someone who won't give up, Jack is your man.
It's a great idea, and he's a great character. But the plot was silly and the love scenes were unnecessary. Still, it was a fun book. I stayed up late trying to finish. I'm not sure I loved the ending, but as I said, I did like the main character. This is not a book meant to be taken seriously. It's just for fun. 3 stars.
