I liked it, but I felt it sort of changed tone midway through. It started off rather noirish, old school, with a hard-boiled, tough guy hero, and by the end it felt like a more modern novel. In any case, it was pretty well written and kept my interest. Being the 10th novel in the series, I had a little catching up to do with the back-story. His physical condition turned into not playing much of a role at all.

Overall, pretty good.

I received a complimentary copy of the book from the publisher and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

Rick Cahill a private investigator in San Diego is feeling vulnerable due to a medical diagnosis. He and his wife have separated and he has a young daughter that he adores. He is concerned about providing for the girl's college education given his circumstances.

Enter a former associate that tried to kill him and later saved his life -- it is complicated. Anyway, this associate offers him big bucks to find a daughter than is now an adult and may hold a key to long term survival for the associate.

This is where the adventure begins for the PI. How to accomplish what needs to be done to earn the money but not get caught in the crossfire is the focus. What a conundrum for Cahill.

The book is about he pulls it off along with using his friends from his time as a cop. A great read that beings characters to live in a very real way.

Matt Coyle knows how to keep the reader moving through a narrative and guessing, and Odyssey's End has no shortage of suspense and emotion. Ideal for readers who are looking for a thriller, and for work from someone who knows the genre well.
