Hits to the bone
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
This is a John Becker book taking place in Connecticut, but a part of the state that most readers are probably not familiar with. Becker traces an egomaniacal killer right in his own home town, one who, ultimately, threatens Becker's wife. Becker is an intriquing character, as always; troubled, gifted, smart, sensitive, absolutely ruthless and blood thirsty when the time comes. And the villain, a murderous seducer, is chilling familiar to any woman, a blind date from hell.
Bone Deep

Having just read Heartland, his latest, I have gone on a Wiltse reading binge, and boy, what a treat. I read Bone Deep in one sitting and wanted much more. I love the way this guy's mind works, funny, devious, dark and serious, and rocket fast. Why are these books out of print?! And where has this author been, why hasn't anyone told me about him until now?
A True Nail-Biter!

Its been a long time since I read this book but there weren't many reviews on it and I really want people to know what a fantastic read this was. Really, all David Wiltse's books have been page turning ,up till midnight kind of novels! The main character,John Becker, is very fasinating and the alternate characters give witty and fun dialouge...Its a must read!!!

What an intriging story line. My first David Wiltse book and can't wait to pick up the other John Becker's books. John Becker is an very dark and yet simple man. He can identify with a serial killer and yet still be able to go home for dinner with the wife/boss. Also keeping you on your toes was McNeil who I think everyone has met one time or another. An excellent summer book and hopefully movie
Another Great Becker
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 27 years ago
This book takes John Becker and his wife (boss) through many twists and turns. Becker is at his best when confronted with a 'rival' and jealousy puts an even sharper edge on his actions. Fighting a serial killer on his home turf and with Karen in possible danger makes Becker an even greater threat and more exciting character (if possible). You can feel his tension mounting throughout the book as he deals with his friend Tee, Karen, a group of misfits, and his growing anger. An excellent book! Erma Arthur, Reading Forum Assistant, MS
