This is the third book I have read by Catherine Coulter and the second in the series. I started out with the third novel "The Target" which sold me into reading more of her books, it was an excellent read which I couldn't put down! I can say "The Maze" has a fair story and story line as did "The Cove" her first book, not top notch, but sufficient. Not many twists and turns although it did have me guessing some! The problem I have had with Ms. Coulter's first two books is she tries to get too cute with her writing by injecting comments that in normal life wouldn't happen. The comments try to be cute, quirt, and just odd, they in my belief completely takes away from telling the story! I believe it actually slows down the flow of the book, as I had to stop and re-read, then think did they really say that?? At any rate I do enjoy the main characters Dillion Savich who helps solve the crime via his computer inputs, and Lacey Sherlock a new agent, whom are both taken with each other and team up to solve a string of vicious murders involving a serial killer who torments his victims in a Maze. I would suggest if you are a first time reader with this author, start with the third in the series as I did. Then decide if you want to go read the first two books in the series or move to the 4th. I am hoping the fourth picks up with the pace that the third book had!!!!
