Journal Entry 1 by catsalive from Rooty Hill, New South Wales Australia on Sunday, August 28, 2005
It has been a while since a vicious murderer killed Kimberly Quincy's mother and sister and put a gun to Kimberly's own head, but rage and guilt are Kim's constant companions, isolating her even as they toughen her in the struggle to become an FBI agent. After she literally stumbles on the body of a woman who looks very like her dead sister, her tightly controlled emotions spill into a furious search for a serial killer that compromises her career. In concert with an equally dedicated Georgia law enforcement officer, her estranged father, and a handful of forensics specialists, she pursues clues to solve a deadly game, the prize for which is a kidnapped young woman. The forensic detail is great, and Gardner works in some genuinely creepy moments, especially when she zeroes in on the victim struggling against horrific odds. A tighter focus and a trimmed-down cast of characters would have made the reading smoother, but that won't stop Gardner's fans.

Very gripping. Well written and suspenseful until the end.

Very good reading. I'll have to keep an eye out for other Lisa Gardner books - as if I didn't have enough to read already.

I just finished this book.I figured out what was gonna happen about midway through it. I really enjoyed it just the same.

Well written and interesting to see how Gardner pulled all the loose ends together.

I noticed this book and another on the counter at the local post office on March 13th around 1:00. Thought the read and release concept was a great one and wanted to be part of it. I'm part way through the book now, I'll let you know how it goes.

Okay I finished the book about a week ago, then handed it off to a co-worker. (There is a few of us who work together that will all read it before we release it again.) I enjoyed this book, it kept me going until the end. I liked the twist, but thought it would have been more effective had it been more of a key character.
