Why read it?
1 author picked Velocity as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This one is a banger. A serial killer has picked Bill, a bartender, to play a game of who lives and who dies. Choose your own slaughter, if you will.
What's so deviously gorgeous about this book is how the hero must learn how to beat the game so that no one dies and he can stop a twisted killer in his tracks. It’s such a great premise for an out-of-their-depth hero.
From Simon's list on out-of-their-depth heroes.
