Loved it!! Great story twists and turns, humor and some romance thrown in. Some unexpected surprises too. Can't wait for the next one.

This was a thriller & practically gave me Criminal Minds vibes on paper. I would recommend it to anyone who loves a good mystery & suspense story. I have no complaints about it other than it wasn’t long enough lol

Honestly one of the worst books that I forced myself to finish. The dialogue was cheesy and unrealistic. I've read Coulter before, she must have improved her style over time. I'm pretty sure I'm done with the series. Too many books and too little time.

I've been on a FBI/Seal/law enforcement kick lately, and saw this on Overdrive. I decided to check this series out. My mom loves Coulter, and I think I've read her in the past. So far so good. I'm really enjoying the story, although it's definitely very dated.

I have to say, I really enjoyed this story. It's definitely weird reading books written in the mid-nineties. Technology has come so far since then, and it took a bit to get used to that.

The story was intriguing and I really enjoyed the characters. Susan/Sally was a very strong female, and Quinlan was a great.

Looking forward to reading the rest of this series. I'm really hoping Dillon has a book :)

I loved the vibes and the setting. You can never go wrong with Catherine Coulter, and this was a super fun read.

Good plot, interesting about the town if not a bit predictable.

It is rare that I don't like a mystery, but for whatever reason, I couldn't get into this book. The depth of character development was weak, and everything seemed a little too contrived.
