I had trouble putting this one down, but please note that at the end of the book, you will be left hanging, make sure you have Guilty As Sin on hand as it is a continuation of this book.
I had trouble putting this one down, and now my husband is reading it and he doesnt usually read during the day, but he has been reading all day yesterday and today. Its that good!
A classic who done it, keeps you guessing!

Excellent read, very suspensful with a little bit of romance that I have to have!!! This is a story of a kidnapping in a small town in Minnesota where things like this just don't happen. It was hard to put down and when it ended I couldn't help but be a little disappointed at all the stories left untold. To my great pleasure she continues this story in "Guily as Sin" which is also in my bookshelf. Check them out!!!!

Tami Hoag writes terrific mysteries that keep you turning the pages until the early morning hours. Night Sins takes place in a small Minnesota town where crime doesn't happen....until a young boy disappears. Megan O'Malley is out to prove herself as the first woman field agent for the BCA [Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension] and she faces a town full of good-old boy law enforcement officers who don't take her seriously, except for chief of police, Mitch Holt, who takes her very seriously; only not the way she wants him to. As the search for Josh continues, secrets are revealed, passions are kindled and Mitch and Megan both have to face their pasts and deal with them. A very engrossing read.

Eight-year-old Josh Kirkwood is abducted outside the hockey arena where he has finished practice. Only one clue is left, a note that talks of ignorance and sin. Josh's parents, Dr. Hannah Garrison and Paul Kirkwood are inconsolable. Dr. Hannah Garrison was to have picked Josh up after hockey but she was detained at the hospital due to an emergency.
Megan O'Malley, Bureau of Criminal Apprehension Investigator and Mitch Holt, Chief of Police for the town of Deer Lake, Minnesota set out to investigate Josh's disappearance. The kidnapper leaves two more clues but there's no break in the case.
Tami Hoag does a fine job in building this first of a two-part story. Go on to Guilty As Sin for the full story. Night Sins and Guilty As Sin together make an excellent story that you won't want to put down.

This is an interesting story, but I found it too depressing at times. It seems that the secret lives of many in this small town are sad and dismal. Even though I enjoyed the first part of this story (it's continued in Hoag's book Guilty as Sin), I don't plan on reading the second part for a while. While reading Night Sins I found myself wondering if anyone in this small town had a normal, happy life.
As one reviewer said "the leads all have sordid pasts" and it seems as if the only happy, innocent person in the story is abducted.
Library Journal Review:
This well-crafted romantic suspense novel by the author of Lucky's Lady (Bantam, 1992) is a tautly written account of life in a small Minnesota town. Megan O'Malley, the first female field officer of the state's criminal investigation bureau, is forced into a close working relationship with Mitch Holt, the town's police chief, when a child goes missing.
Against the background of a multi-jurisdictional criminal investigation, dialog and plot flow smoothly, and elements of romantic tension that serve to define the characters further are seamlessly inserted into the basic mystery, suspense theme.
Current news topics, such as the presence of known pedophiles in a community and the problems of childcare in homes with two working parents, help fuel important subplots. The investigatory techniques are all presented intelligently and provide a strong framework for this gripping suspense tale.

A chilling book about the murder of a young boy. From the prologue:
"They found the body today. Not nearly as soon as we expected. Obviously we gave them too much credit. The police are not as smart as we are. No one is. We stood on the sidewalk and watched...We stood on the sidewalk as the ambulance came with it's light flashing, and more police cars came, and the cars of people from around town. We stood in the crowd but no one saw us, no one looked at us. They thought we were beneath their notice, unimportant..."

Normally Hoag either has me from page 1 or doesn't catch my attention at all. This was a case of the latter.
Good character development, good dialog, good settings although the focus on the landscape was tedious after a while.
The ending was a yawn, who wants to read a second book just to wrap up the first book, ESPECIALLY when there is NO mention on the cover that this is book 1 of 2. Irritating. I like my stories to have real endings instead of insinuations.
At this point I'll try Guilty as Sin and see how this ends. 540 page investment in this story.
