Query: Very smooth taunt thriller

Crais does his homework. You can just imagine the charecters on a TV movie set in LA. Good cast of antagonists especially "Pants Krantz". Samantha Dolan's flawed charecter is very enticing and sympathetic, you almost want her to steal the hero (Elvis) from his girlfriend who is too squeaky clean and boring. Joe Pike(Hero #2) flashbacks are compelling and entertaining. Essentially you dont feel your reading a book, more like a great television movie.
