The Tigers Cave Bill Rogers 9780956422019 Books
This is the third book in the Tom Caton series, and I am giving it a rest. I have the same complaints that I had previously - wooden Kate, semi-one dimensional Caton, sophomoric love scenes, lack of tension. This time out, since the locale was largely in China, the appealing Manchester took a back seat. I usually don't read the book synopsis since spoilers lurk, but this time, I would have been well-served. While human trafficking is deplorable and a reality, my interest flagged from the start. Details followed details about the Triad, the Tong, and no suspense built at all. I found no one to root for, no one to despise, since the characters were thrown out there with no real feeling to them. I'm sorry to give this series a miss since there are five more.... I am usually enthralled with continuing characters and thrilled to have a long series. Not this time. So many like Susan Hill, Cynthia Harrod-Eagles, Alex Gray have created suspenseful stories and endearing characters who just get better and better, I had hoped for the same. Alas, not so. Maybe you do get what you pay for:)Product details

The Tigers Cave Bill Rogers 9780956422019 Books Reviews
Bill Rogers continues to develop the character of Tom Caton and his colleagues in a compelling way. This story of murder, cultural differences, and cooperation across the continents was a very good read.
An very interesting book about illegal immigrants trying to enter a new country. It makes you stop and think what a lot of people out there are going through, putting their own lives at risk.
I couldn't finish the book... The stilted dialogue, convoluted police organization and undeveloped plot( at least thru the first half of the novel) was completely underwhelming.
Glad that I followed a reviewers advice and began reading the books in order. These are good, solid, old fashioned police procedurals. No rampant sex although rather gory at the autopsy (I usually skip that paragraph). Like the characters and the humour sprinkled in the story.
So this is the second one I will read the rest so recommended.
Complex and believable story, well written and characters are getting more fully developed as the series goes on. But if a wobble here in the beginning with loads of info that seems a bit winded and it does help understand the plot as the novel moves on.
Tom Caton and his team have to co-operate with various agencies and departments - including the Chinese - to solve a clutch of grisly murders, while racing against time to save two more potential victims. The city of Manchester provides an interesting backdrop to a well crafted whodunit and Caton's personal life - peppered with light-hearted moments - contrasts with the more gruesome aspects of his job.
I purchased all of the Bill Roger's books about Tom Caton after reading the foreword on them. Unfortunately I received
all of the books at once and started reading The Tiger's Cave first, then realized that there was information in it that must
have been revealed in another book. So I started reading the books in order of publication date. I'm not entirely sure
that I still have it right.
However, I am enjoying all of the stories an appreciate the individuality of each of the characters. Will keep at it!
