Summary: Harrowing, emotional, suspenseful [MILD SPOILERS]
Comment: When a serial rapist strikes a small, Southern town, his victims band together to catch the predator before he strikes again. Along the way, the protagonist discovers an inner strength that only tragedy can bring about.
While the plot is not very complex, Ms. Harris brings the horrors of rape home to her readers by giving a gripping, first-person account of a rape and its aftermath. What may have been maudlin or overwrought is done with enough understated simplicity that the scene is simply chilling.
The novel is one of Ms. Harris's earlier, "stand-alone" works and is well worth reading if one is able to find a copy. Highly recommended.
Rating: 2
Summary: An early work
Comment: This is one of Ms. Harris' earliest works and shows it. Read it if you must read everything by her, but I would start with either her Shakespeare or Roe Teagarden series. For those who like a wee bit of supernatural in their mysteries - the Southern Vampire Mysteries (two books currently) are fun.
There is the promise of the strong herione that becomes the mainstay of Harris' books, but this story is one of her weakest.
