I think it’s particularly on brand for me to feel betrayed by mystery/thriller novels, mainly because I’m too trusting and can never correctly guess the culprits.

Some of the shots were actually more effective than the ones in the original, and the ending in the remake is more satisfying and better executed than in the original.All this together made it difficult for me to push through the book, but I continued to have hope that it would improve and so decided against DNF'ing it. Evelyn Hardcastle had a similar problem where the final twist made no sense but this was so much worse, my god. Wealth was a key and poverty was a prison, and they'd been born shackled through no fault of their own. I could easily picture the ship and its inhabitants, but it didn't feel like they were from the 17th century. There are a few twists, most of which I'd predicted (not bragging, I have merely read enough mystery novels to know how certain stories will unfold).

In Dark Water: A compulsive Scottish detective novel

Like so many finale ideas thrown together, but it was still agreeable and aptly written and made me do some double takes. But even with Turton’s methodical unfurling of the novel’s layers, the core mystery of The Devil and the Dark Water is virtually unsolvable. Robert visits the Tennants' farm, where he learns that 190 cows have died of unusual medical conditions such as bloated organs, blackened teeth, and tumors.Unfortunately, Sammy is being transported in shackles to Amerstadam to stand trial and punishment for a crime unknown to Arent. A mother and daughter, still wounded from a bitter custody dispute, hole up in a run-down apartment building, where they are targeted by the ghost of a former resident. Dark Waters is a 2019 American legal thriller film directed by Todd Haynes and written by Mario Correa and Matthew Michael Carnahan. At first glance it’s not much at all like 7½ Deaths, except in the intricacy of the plot … and the way it mixes together different genres, and the vivid and complex characters who are far more than they first appear, and the insightful and subtle writing … well, perhaps his two books have more in common than I first thought. I am not sure if that was the author's intention to perhaps make fun of typical mystery tropes and clichés, but it didn't come across like that to me and instead felt like lazy writing.

I maintain my interest in that book even after this one because the premise sounds so much more interesting to me. Since “we” are all still alive, Thackeray’s Jack pulls out his “snickersnee” and tells the cabin boy: “Oh Billy, we’re going to kill and eat you. Dahlia finds the apartment above flooded and a family portrait of the former tenants, the Rimsky family: a mother, father, and a girl who is Cecilia's age. This trip is not for pleasure as Samuel, a famous detective, has been convicted of a 'mysterious' crime and is under arrest.We have the dryly sarcastic humor and scientific logic of Holmes, as well as Christie’s trademark red herrings and elements of the more intuitive detective work of her infamous Hercule Poirot. If you're a fan of any, or all, of these authors and books – Ken Follet, Agatha Christie, Sherlock Holmes, The Shining, or Lord of the Flies, then The Devil and the Dark Water is going to be a sure-fire winner for you. The interactions between the characters also struck me as modern, and it seemed weird that every woman on the ship was so ahead of her times (Sara's daughter is a genius). The story dramatizes Robert Bilott's case against the chemical manufacturing corporation DuPont after they contaminated a town with unregulated chemicals.
