 I had to look back to see if this was the same author I used to like! September 25, 2008
This was a really bad book. I would not recommend it to anyone unless someone gives it to you for free.
I skipped over huge portions of it because it was so boring. The characters were underdeveloped, shallow, and there was certainly no suspence.
Worst of all, the reader is suppose to feel sorry for the killer and be happy that he could live happily ever after with just a little remorse for a robbery, but nothing for the murders he cold-bloodly committed. How absurd!
 preposterous plot August 18, 2008
I've read everything Tom Perry has written since the inaugural Butcher's Boy and I keep reading him because of his clever writing style and his careful grasp of the procedural, whether the procedure is hiding people or finding people or just killing them expertly. But the final mystery of Fidelity, once revealed, is so preposterous that I almost stopped reading. We are expected to believe that skilled private eye Kramer was hired by a rich psycho to find and return his runaway "daughter" and that Kramer never bothered to confirm that his client actually had a daughter, never consulted other law enforcement for leads, and when he found the "daughter," failed to discover that she was actually an underage girl his client had been bonking. Perry gives the impression of having lost his way in the plot and going to desperate measures to tie up loose ends.
 A great read! July 19, 2008
I have been a long time fan of Thomas Perry, and Fidelity continues in his unique style. He is a master of character, suspense and clever plot twists. Excellent story telling - I couldn't put it down.
Calling this book "Pulp" is an undeserved compliment July 18, 2008
Way, way too much narrative -- and boring narrative -- and too little dialogue -- and boring dialogue at that. It would seem to me that Mr. Perry is way way over-hyped. This is the last Perry book I'll read, and I'm probably not qualified to write this review, as it took me about 30 minutes to read it. I started skimming because I was mildly -- very very mildly -- interested in the plot ... and kept skimming faster and faster. Basically, a waste of my time. Very amateur-ish. I'd give it a "No Star" if that rating were available.
Not Believable July 9, 2008
I am a Thomas Perry fan. i enjoyed Butcher Boy and Silence. He is the best around at making a killer interesting and even sympathetic. Unfortunately Jerry Hobart is the only interesting character in this book. As other reviewers have stated the book does not make sense. Following the old adage when you have nothing good to say say nothing I will stop the review now.
