The good bits: this book is gripping and still thrilling, even though nothing beats the start of the first book - consequently the story flow is slower. The parameters set by book 1 form the ground on which this story floats, definitely read #1 first, otherwise you may be disappointed. Gwen/Gina is still the fighting mama bear. Atlanta the troubled teenager gets a larger role and she's one of the more convincing characters. Connor, the youngest, is instrumentalized as naïve but cunning child. He is least convincing and I found it annoying that his role and behaviour is so predictable but escapes any and everybody's attention. That is the one big flaw: the adults are super protective and strong and disciplined, but never check/control the son and his phone? Second big flaw: the bad guys are corporated in an unconvincing way. They are all connected, financed, organized according to needs - from entertainers (the monster father) to rich enablers to even drivers and crew... this aspect is good for the whole story but just a bit too large and smooth. The narrative felt constructed to me rather than convincing. But:- after pawns are sacrificed, the good prevails. This is a big plus, the plot is immensly satisfying, if a bit predictable. Will I read #3? Yes, I will.
There were a lot of inconsistencies in the book, and a lot of things not done that didn't make any sense. Like an FBI agent who doesn't check someone for a weapon, or using disposable phones over and over again, and then the characters wondering why they can be tracked. Also, there were a lot of grammatical and editing errors. I was sorely disappointed.
I am not sure how I feel about this book. I enjoyed book 1 because it was a fresh perspective and the whole behind the scenes thing that kept the story going. It’s still typical Rachel Caine thing where just when things can’t get any worse there’s a miraculous way out. It’s always a buildup but you know there’s always going to be a neat and tidy resolution. So when I found book 2 I decided to read it mostly to see just how neat the ending was going to end up. All I can say about book 2 is it doesn’t know what it wants to be. Does it want to be a manhunt for a serial killer, a family drama, a soap opera, a random romance that isn’t a romance, a techno thriller/conspiracy theory thriller? It’s trying to dip a toe into all of these pools but doesn’t really follow through with any of it. Plus you have to care about the characters and with Connor, Lannie, and Gwen you really … don’t. There’s nothing to like. In book 1 we’re told time and time and time and time again about how cautious and expert Gwen had become and how she tried to teach her children to do the same. Yet the second the window blows wrong, all of that knowledge and training is thrown out of the window (Spoiler: Connor CALLS his dad on a cell phone. WTF?!. Lannie sneaks out and runs to meet her girlfriend. Sam buys a video he is TOLD IS FAKE, yet treats it like it’s legit after the person who showed it to him tells him “This is a fake.â€). Any attachment you feel with these people flees and you end up thinking “if they die, eh.†Book 3 will be a hard pass, thank you.
Gwen Proctor is a new person ever since she was acquitted of helping her husband, Melvin Royal, murder women. She changed her name and went on the run from internet weirdos trying to locate and do harm to her and her children. Some people believe she did help her serial killer husband, so she feels unsafe everywhere they go...like some wacko could appear out of nowhere at any time. Then her husband escapes from prison, and she discovers that her new identity was never secure. She leaves her two children with two people she can trust and goes hunting Melvin. But Melvin isn't the only danger. Someone is playing a very intricate game designed to destroy her entire life and make those closest to her believe she is guilty.Killman Creek is the second book in the Stillhouse Lake series. The first book is excellent and ends in a cliff hanger, so I jumped into this second book almost immediately. This one has a bit of a different feel to it. This time the story line changes point of view, switching from the kids, to Gwen, to her friend Sam, and others. Gwen is the point of view used for a majority of the story, but you get a taste of how the people closest to her feel about the situation. I didn't really like the switch ups, but given some of the major plot points with people wondering if she's a murderer and liar, it did help further the plot. I think most of my problem with it was the sections involving the kids. Some of their dialogue and actions almost turned this book into more of a melodramatic, YA-like emotional rant. I have to admit that as I listened to the audiobook, I fast forwarded past some of the teenage angst. It interfered with the suspense and went on too long. I get it -- their dad is a killer, they are tired of moving, and they think their mom may have helped him. But 20 minutes of childish rants and stupid decisions just pulled me out of the story for too long and some of their decisions were just over-the-top ridiculous. BUT....I will add that once the action turned to moving towards the final conclusion of this story, every point of view was necessary, and the switchups redeemed themselves, adding to the suspense at that point rather than making me roll my eyes. Don't get me wrong -- this is a great book and I enjoyed it. I just felt some of the sections using the kids' POV just went on too long and were just a bit too cheesy melodramatic.The pace (except in a couple spots where it got bogged down in the kiddos stuff) moves along at a good speed, the suspense builds nicely, and the ending was satisfying for the most part. I did hope for a bit more Melvin -- but I was happy enough at how the story ends. I think there were some actions by other characters that Gwen accepted and forgave a bit too easily, especially a couple choices by Sam and her kids. The ending seemed a bit too smooth with Gwen never really confronting some things done by those closest to her.I listened to the audiobook version of this story. At just under 12 hours long, the audio version had voice actors for the different main characters and was very well done. I have hearing loss but was easily able to hear and understand the entire production. It took me a bit to get used to a couple of the voices, but I was able to immerse myself in the story.Another book in this series, Wolfhunter River, is coming out in October 2018. Not sure what the plot might be for this next book, but I will definitely be reading it! Excellent series!
I knew better than to get excited about the second in a series, but “Stillhouse Lake†was so good that I purchased the second in the series. Stillhouse Lake ended with a cliffhanger, so I just HAD to find out what happened to the Melvin the Killer/Monster! The first third of Killman Creek was devoted to explaining Stillhouse Lake, and I do understand why, but felt I should zip through those pages. ...sigh...This story was not nearly as good as the first in the series, a real disappointment to me. The plot was thin and not quite believable. The characters were just okay, and the two children not as smart as they’d been trained. However, I did finish the book and probably will not buy more of this series. Would I recommend to friends? I don’t think so.
I didn’t love this book as much as I did the first one. Storyline is pretty far fetched. Too many unbelievable occurrences ruined the book for me.
