Product Description:
Justice is as fast as a bullet…
As I lie in bed with Amanda, ignoring another late-night call from my ex, a shot rings out in the New York night and a beautiful starlet dies outside the city's most popular nightclub. This is the kind of story I was born to chase—but I never dreamed this story began over a hundred years ago.…
Suddenly another life is taken, the bullet fired from one of the deadliest guns ever made. Both victims are highly controversial, their murders more like public executions. My search leads me into the twisted world of The Boy—a world defined by a demented code of honor and shocking, long-buried secrets of the world's most infamous outlaw.
When this assassin realizes I'm getting too close to the truth, uncovering the past could jeopardize everything I care about. Because in his world there's a fine line between good and evil, and the difference between innocence and guilt depends on who's holding the gun.…

I missed the very first book in this series, but I easily understood the plot nonetheless. I loved Henry Parker and I loved this story. It was fantastic. I'll definitely go back to catch up with the very first one.
I would have easily given this book a five rating if it had ended the way my mind had pictured the ending. Oh, Jason Pinter, why couldn't you give me my happily ever after? I'm such a hopeless romantic!
Don't get me wrong, the ending does conclude...eh...okay, and I suppose some things are a must for a series. Still, I guess I'll just rewrite it in my mind...sigh. Maybe Pinter gets it right in the subsequent one, you think?

If you like a thriller with:

Then you'll like this book! This is the second outing for journalist Henry Parker, and in it he finds himself embroiled with a serial killer in NYC who seems intent on hunting down people in the public eye who don't deserve to be there. The killer becomes fixated on Henry, and to help save the lives of more people Henry has to find the cause of the killer's behavior and figure out his origins.
This book had me turning pages way later than I should've been!

What's it like to be an author like Jason Pinter? I'd like to know that, because he controls the suspense level for Henry Parker with every heart-pounding sentence. Pinter's debut, "The Mark," was incredible. And in continuing the saga of Henry Parker with "The Guilty," Pinter had the attention of people who mattered. Tess Gerritsen gave a cover endorsement, while Lee Child bravely added fuel to the fire on the back. So are these bestsellers just spitting fire and blowing smoke? Or is Jason Pinter supposedly guilty as charged? Is he that good? If not, he's getting there, because this is a darn good read!
Henry Parker is getting on with his life with his new love, Amanda Davies. And he doesn't like his miserable ex, Mya, bugging him at all hours, reminding him, "I called you, Henry." Reminding him that he wasn't there. But forget about Mya, she's not that important, right? Henry has other fish to fry, and it starts with a bullet. A goddess of a star is murdered, and Henry Parker puts himself right in the middle. And totally unintentionally, he gets a little too close for his own good. Once again a chaotic mess is evolving around Henry Parker and company. Just remember, he's the reporter, we just read the news as it breaks! And people will be affected. And Henry Parker may go where no reporter has gone before. But then again he may not.
Jason Pinter has put himself on the map of thriller writers. And I don't think he's going away too soon. He's a tough nut to crack, and he has the attention of readers like myself. I can't wait for "The Stolen" to emerge. I'm expecting great things from Jason Pinter.

At page fifty-three I had about had it with reviews from Pinter's previous book "The Mark". There were so many references to it, I thought I either had to throw this one away, or put it down and read "The Mark" first. At page 63, I decided in favor of the former. No sense reading the very first book, all has been revealed. I picked this from the shelf primarily because of Lee Child's endorsement. I'll stick with Mr. Child; Pinter can't touch him.

While I didn't think this was a 5 star read, neither did I think it deserved only 1 star. Felt it was somewhere in the middle, not a total waste of time, but not as good as The Mark. Will read the subsequent book by Jason Pinter and hope it's a little better.
