Fun book for Castle fans! It's not terrible, but not great either. I probably wouldn't have read this if I didn't love the show, but it was a fun, quick read.

Sadly NOT read by Nathan Fillion. However even with that terrible flaw (kidding!) it isn't a bad book. It is quite well plotted and stays true to the depictions given in the series. But it turns out that I'm more interested in the series (Castle / Beckett / et al) than the spin off novels with Rook / Heat. I can think of several fellow readers who will enjoy this immensely. =)
