Summary: COULDN'T PUT IT DOWN
Comment: This was just an incredible read! I couldn't put it down. The suspense kept me turning the pages. I could taste the fear of the characters. Sean is hot and the cult leader is the creepiest. And I just LOVED the witty banter between Julie and Sean. FABULOUS BOOK! JUST FABULOUS! Hope a sequel featuring Lizzie will be coming soon. Maggie Shayne is equally talented in everything she writes: vampires, suspense and category.
Rating: 4
Summary: Note on the final twist
Comment: The final twist leaves this story incomplete- we will have to wait for part two- Lizzie's story to complete this one and the story of the survivors of Mordecai's cult.
Overall I enjoyed this romance-lighting fast pacing and the befuddled hero were enjoyable-this was the first time I read a Maggie Shayne novel that felt more like a Sandra Brown novel.For journalistic romantic suspense try Exclusive or Standoff by Sandra Brown.
Rating: 2
Summary: Could have been a GREAT read if only...
Comment: ....more attention had been paid to the details. I can't believe the other two reviewers missed it! But then again both reviews appear to have been written by people more inclined to promote the book or themselves rather than inform other readers.
I've read every last one of Shayne's "Wings in the Night" series, loved them all. "The Gingerbread Man" was another at the top of my list and what had me convinced I should grab "Thicker than Water". I truly thought I had a winner in my hands until #1 Dawn's description for the Amber Alert of having BLACK hair. She was a blond. #2 After being with Ms. Marcum, when Sean called Jax about Dawn's kidnapping; Jax and Ms. Marcum meet again during the rescue. Only THIS time Jax asks, "And who are you?" Duh! #3 Lack of believability. No FBI agent is going to allow a small town cop and a journalist to participate in a raid for a wanted man the equivelent of Jim Jones or David Koresh.
What started out as a terrific read gets only 2 stars. Maggie you fell asleep at the wheel of your Porsche this time. Try some Red Bull for the next one, okay?
