It was a good book, loved the ending, didn’t suspect the real killer till the end.

This is one of Ms. Gerritsen's early books that I grabbed on sale. While I like her later books better, I appreciate the Maine setting and her writing. The mystery was pretty good: Miranda has broken off her affair with her boss, a married man when his body is found with a knife in his chest on her bed. His brother arrives and becomes involved in finding clues about the murder. However, I didn't like the romance here. It detracts from the rest of the story, so I give this book 3 1/2 stars rounded up.

Haar boeken zijn altijd goed. Spannend om te lezen en houden je geboeid van begin tot eind.

One of my favourite authors, and while I 'don't do' romance I like her way of linking thriller and romance together. This is among her earlier work, before the 5 star ratings of Rizzoli and Isles books, but still the captivating story telling keeps you reading.

I like Gerritens' books. This one was okay. They are good for passing the time. I wish she'd so some more Rizzoli &Isles. Those are usually awesome.

very predictable but worth the read if you switch off your brain. Her stand alone books aren't as good as her series.

Gripping throughout with plenty of tension and shocks. Something felt like it was missing though; something I can't put my finger on. So it has to be 3 stars from me

This was a nice easy read with an interesting storyline. This is my first book by Tess Gerritsen, however, it will not be my last.
