Stratagem By: Robin Caroll

Back of the book

A High-Stakes Simulation Adventure Leaves Grayson Thibodeaux the Prime Suspect. . .for Murder

Deep in the gritty underbelly of New Orleans, psychologist Grayson Thibodeaux loses everything when his wife leaves him to climb her company’s corporate ladder. He buries himself in his job of creating mind-bending adventure games for businesses as team-building explorations. When his ex-wife’s company hires Grayson’s to create an elaborate game, he doesn’t see how things can get worse. Until she dies during the course of the game he created…making him the prime suspect for murder.

My Thoughts

Fantastic!!  Everything about this books is spot on.  The plot is original, well thought out, and executed smoothly.  The characters are perfect, their personalities not only helped move the story along in a seamless way, but also mold the mystery.  Lastly the writing style, most of Stratagem is interviews that the detectives make and a few chapters of dialog.  Every interview twisted the story and yet helped the pieces align.  It wasn't until the last chapter that everything fell into place and that to me is the perfect thriller.
