Summary: Above Average Thriller
Comment: SUMMARY: Hannah Doyle is an abused wife on the run with her four year old son, who has settled in Seattle for the time being. Everything is going well; Hannah, a film buff, has a job at a video store which she loves, attends a film class at the local community college, and has the unconditional love of her precocious son, Guy. Soon, Hannah becomes the object of affection for three different men, all of whom, she realizes, are following her. While worrying that her husband has found her at last, she begins receiving videos of old movies cued to notorious murder scenes; soon, people Hannah knows, even if only tangentially, start dying in exactly the manner of the movies. This killer has decided Hannah will be his next leading lady. Who can she trust?
WHY YOU'LL LIKE IT: Wonderful characterization; you come to know and care about these characters, particularly Hannah and her son. The action sequences are taut and well-told, and the suspense is kept at a breakneck pace. The plot is original and terrifying. Genuine surprises frequently abound.
WHY YOU WON'T: Too many chefs spoil the soup, and in this case, too many stalkers spoil the story. It can be difficult to keep up with who is who in this novel frought with a plethora of characters. Some plot devices are overly contrived, and seem to make the work longer than in needs to be.
BOTTOM LINE: Above average thriller from a writer who knows how to tell a good, and horrifying, story. Definitely recommend.
Rating: 5
Summary: damn
Comment: This book was great. The author has great ideas that he puts into great description in the book. It is all about a woman with a young boy that is plagued by a serial killer that sends her video tapes of how he will kill them. All the clips are from famous movies suck as THe Godfather and Rosemary's Baby. Then you find out that she is being chased by her abusive husband. The book is all about murderers and stalkers and mixed identities. I liked it.

Summary: miss spell
Comment: I was the copy editor for "Watch Them Die." Imagine my distress at being singled out as the one who marred your enjoyment of the book, William. I enjoyed working on the book, thought it was well written, compelling, and inventive, and gave its editing a lot of time and care. Ah, well.
