Hello, all.
I've tracked down Benjamin Schutz's Haggerty novels and
noticed the first is written in alternating first/third
person as discussed last month. In the book Haggerty is
searching for Herb Saunders, a husband/father of kidnapped
children. The alternating POVs give readers deeper insight
into Saunders's psyche than Haggerty could have upon meeting
him and giving the traditional P.I read.
I'm just a few chapters in, but Schutz seems to have worked
out the pacing, so I expect and welcome the third-person
passages rather than being jarred by them.
