Product Description:
"Nevada Rose" Demille was one of the most beautiful and desired sports groupies in Las Vegas, a fixture at the trendiest casinos and clubs on the Strip. But the endless party came to a tragic end the morning her nude body was found bound and gagged in her home. As crime scene investigators Catherine Willows and Warrick Brown dig deeper, all roads (and a growing media circus) lead to Mark Baker -- a.k.a. "The Fireball" -- a hard-throwing, Cooperstown-bound major-league pitcher and fancier of gorgeous women who recently conducted a very public affair with one "Nevada Rose" Demille....
Meanwhile, miles away on the grounds of a world-class championship golf course, Gil Grissom is probing the macabre discovery of a John Doe -- an intense investigation that will unearth a bitter sibling rivalry twisted by jealousy and distrust over a "Nevada Rose" of a very different nature....

I've read quite a few CSI books and my personal observation is the following. I like the original CSI tv series, but not the novelisation of CSI.
Consversely, I never liked the tv series of the two spin offs- CSI Miami and CSI NY, but I do like their novels.
And so I'm sure you have guessed I didnt like CSI Nevada Rose much.
It's hard for me to pin down why exactly I feel this way. There were a couple of crimes which required the usualy high level of techinical ... Read More

Like another reader, I bought this as a reader of Preisler's Power Plays series, but have a much higher opinion of this book. Maybe because I've watched the show but never read the other novels,I had a clean slate going in. Whatever the reason, I thought the characterizations were right on and the dialog was crisp. There are small moments that reveal the "ghosts" these characters carry around--the scene with Sara in the campus quad, the one when Grissom thinks about religion, a couple with the non-CSI ...

I'm a huge CSI fan, whether it is on TV, in novels, or graphic novels. I also enjoyed Preisler's work in his "Tom Clancy" series, so I was happy when the Amazon box containing this book showed up and sat down to start reading."Nevada Rose", as is typical of CSI episodes and books, follows two investigations. Both cases are interesting and the stories keep you reading; however, the CSIs in the book don't "feel" like the characters in the show or even in the other CSI novels -- there's just something a little ...

I purchased this title because I had read many other of the CSI tie in novels and enjoyed them very much. This one was a disappointment. The plot was o.k., but the writing style was uneven and choppy. Many times tenses changed from one paragraph to the next, some sentences had an article missing or a pronoun deleted. The case for the author trying to write it as common speech could be made---if he had done a better job of it. All together it made for a very awkward read. I think this title (and author) ...
