So after becoming a huge Castle fan on TV I thought I would try and check out the books that the show is based on.  This was my first Kindle Prime Free monthly rental so the price was right to try it.  The book is really short and to the point.  The characters are slightly different then the ones on TV and I have to say I am more of a fan of the TV version rather than the books.  The book was fairly predictable but it did make me laugh a few times.

Main story here is about a multi-billionare developer who is found dead dropped out of his penthouse apartment.  The usual suspects are lined up: the nanny, the widow, the best friend, the worst enemy and you go back and forth a while before finding the killer.  The plot is well done and I did like the little hints they dropped along the way but I am not a big mystery reader so of course I totally missed them until the end of the book where they wrap it up.

I do not think I will be reading any more of his books but it was an interesting try.
