A review by duparker
The Bride Collector by Ted Dekker

3.0

the jacket of this book says that you will read it in one sitting. After the first 50 pages, I agree with that sentiment. Then about 3 hours later, I hit page 340. There was a period of maybe 70 pages that kind of dragged on. Finally the ending of the book redeemed itself a bit, but took it from a 4-star to maybe at three and a half star. there are some portions of the plot that don't make sense and seem to be highly Continental, but overall the story has a good flow and the Mystery element rather the Thriller element is intact for a good portion of the book. The elements of the book that don't really work include the Paranormal / I'm reading a teen Thriller / Supernatural book. It just gets in the way of the otherwise really good thriller.
