Query: Simply Bad

This book started off nicely but then quickly went downhill. The main characters are okay, the heroin addicted prostitute had some good character development, the priest guy was pretty bland and the main character was well written.However all the secondary characters were flat and one dimensional, they had no character development and they all had about a 5-page life span. Let me give you an example of the life-span of a secondary character in this book:Main character A is walking along and comes across minor character B. Character A and B talk. Character B gives character A some information. Character B dies. Character A moves on. That's it. Brian Keene simply is incapable of having a minor character WALK AWAY from an encounter with a main character.This book had potential but just bombed horribly. Do yourself a favor and pass this one by.
