The Accident by Linwood Barclay
4.0
There was a lot going on in this book, and I never guessed the conclusion at all. It was hard to tell the good guys from the bad guys much of the time.
Most of the characters in the story seemed to be average people caught up in situations that they were not prepared for. People living in hard times, trying to make a little extra money on the side, doing things like selling fake designer purses, cheap prescription drugs, knock-off building supplies, etc. What could go wrong? Seems innocuous enough, until people start dying all over. Some unusual accidents here, a shooting or two there, but are they connected? Hard to say.
There were not real super heroes in this story, and sometimes the characters seemed to be a little dumb and annoying, but all in all an enjoyable read and hard to put down after a while.
