Helpful Score: 2
I love this author and her stories but I must admit that I got pretty bogged down with all of the characters and their relationships to one another in this book. For once, I kept wishing that she had given us one of those character referrals at the beginning so we could refer back to it during the course of the book. Yet, this is still a good read and I recommend it highly.
The book had a good story line but too many characters. It took me all I could muster to figure out who was who. Especially when half the time they were called by their first name and half the time by their last name.
Another wonderful read by Carla Neggers. Good characterization, engaging plot, and a touch of romance and suspense to make it all worthwhile....
Not Neggers best book but still a good read. This is 3rd in a series. I would suggest you read them in order so you will know the characters.
This is the best of Carla Neggers. This is number three in the FBI Series. Just what is the connection between Lizzie Rush, of the Rush family hotel chains and Norman Estabrook, billionare thrill seeker? Just who is the handsome Brit, Lord Will Davenport working for? Who do you trust..Lizzies Daddy once told her to trust no one.A bombing in Boston involving FBI Director John March's Daugher Abigail, and Boston Police detectives with connections to Ireland give this thriller all the mystery and suspense of a best seller.
great author i love all her books thisone kept me on the edge of my seat with Lizzie and Will love it
Billionaire Norman Estabrook is charged with money laundering and abetting drug traffickers but his wealth allows him house arrest on his Montana ranch. Used to doing whatever he wants, Estabrook targets a killing list of those who interfered with his lifestyle. At the top are FBI director John March and Agent Simon Cahill; he also wants to murder the not so anonymous snitch, hotel owner Lizzie Rush and Cahill's lover Kiera Sullivan as well as other loved ones.
Rush believes Estabrook is a deadly predator who will hunt down his adversaries in a thrill seeker equivalent of the Deadliest Game. She goes to Ireland to warn Sullivan and meets SIS Agent Lord Will Davenport. In Boston, March's daughter Abigail Browning vanishes following a bombing of the house she lives in with her fiancé. The Feds know Estabrook arranged the hit, but are unaware that the wealthy psychopath has begun his contest using mercenaries.
The latest Carla Neggers FBI romantic suspense thriller (see THE WIDOW, ABANDON and especially THE ANGEL) is an enjoyable tale filled with a gloomy atmosphere as the audience and the heroes expect the worse.
