Houseboat on the Nile by Tinnean
4.0
This otherwise excellent story is too long. Many of the repeated scenes from the two point of view become tedious and added unnecessary length. I'll add more when I finish the story. Over all I like it.
Ok. Finished it. Really liked the main characters, the plot is sufficiently complicated, and even the secondary characters are fully formed. I found the story, particularly in how it portrayed two secretive and paranoid men begin a relationship, intriguing. Mark, more than Quinn, strikes me as likely a psychopath. He kills easily and without a hint of regret or conscious. Necessary, I suppose, in his job. His resistance to Quinn, or any close relationship, makes for an interesting read. Still, the too frequent regurgitating of the same scenes, I found boring after a while. Also the flow of the story was a bit choppy. Otherwise, I'd give this five stars, something I rarely do.
