It’s almost a shame that this is a Bill Hodges story, because he doesn’t need to be here. Instead, we get a tale about ownership of an author’s works. John Rothstein created a beloved character in Jimmy Gold, and wrote a trilogy where his character became normal. A trio of burglars steal into Rothstein’s home and rob him of $24K and almost 200 Moleskine journals which contain two more Jimmy Gold novels. Flash forward 30 some years to Pete Saubers, a teen whose father was crippled by the Mercedes Killer. Pete finds the trunk that contains the money and the journals. And then this becomes a cat and mouse deception tale between a boy and an elderly criminal as they battle for control over the future works. And then Bill Hodges gets involved. Sigh.
