A brilliant meteorologist, a faceless burn victim, and a serial killer in the Twin Cities of Minnesota. This is a truly gripping book. A real page-turner. But the ending is a bit of a disappointment. This is not due to a lack of storytelling skill, however - things just didn't end the way I wanted them to. I wanted the characters' lives to go in different directions. So it's still a good book.

Some of the writing/pacing wasn't always the best, but I have a weakness for regional mysteries. The weather details were fun, if far-fetched, but this was an enjoyable "curl-up-on-the-couch" mystery. ( )

I borrowed this from my dad since I blew through the last of the 4 books I took to Nashville on the day before we left. It was pretty good! You know me, I'm a sucker for a serial killer story. I'll have to keep my eyes out for more Thayer books in the future. ( )

Lets be honest...a book titled The Weatherman...didn't really scream much in the way of promise, but hey, i'll try anything. i'm glad i did! while this was not a five or even a four star read it kept me wanting to turn the pages. i was intrigued the whole way through. contrary to other reviews i did not feel overwhelmed by one subject over any other, i just really enjoyed the read. I'm not sure that i'll ever search out the author, but it certainly was not something i would ridicule and never recommend. if you are looking for that no brainer read that will get you through the long flight, or the snow day, its a perfect book.
