RAVENS by George Dawes Green

Next on the hit list! Oh great a family wins 300 million, some idiot 20 year olds hear the news and go in to steal the money. One stays with the family, the other drives around pointlessly supposedly to kill a family member (all of them conveniently live nearby) if the other idiot doesn't call every 20 minutes.


The first thing to piss me off is that the writer just glides right over an adult male owning a gun and handing it over to one of the punks. Not one punch is thrown, not a shot fired and why don't I know how many guns are in the house? All it says is "so and so got the fathers gun"....what? Who is hiding the knives because I would kill the idiot after a phone call, with family helping, then have 20 mins to call everyone and the cops and catch the second killer. So how is that not happening? The ticket is in a safety deposit box otherwise book would be over I guess.


I really couldn't take the absurdity of these 2 guys taking off, coming back etc and somehow managing the entire clan without anyone calling the cops. I read the last chapter and hung it up. At one point the "cold blooded" killer changes some old man's colostomy bag. Right? What? Over and out.
