Summary: gone but not forgotten, definitly not forgotten!
Review: "Gone But Not Forgotten," were the words left at every crime scene, and A black rose, in the book titled, Gone But Not Forgotten, by Phillip Margolin. This is a murder mystery book about killings that took place ten years ago, but start up again in a new place. This book is very easy reading and I really liked the book. There are many characters in the book, but they all join together to find the "Rose Killer". One of the most important characters is, Betsy Tannenbaum. In the book, Betsy is the attorney of Martin Darius, a very prominent man. Martin is being Accused of the murders, but he claims he's innocent. The "Rose Killings" first took place in a little town called Hunters Point, New York. The Police Department for Hunters Point set up a task force for the "Rose Killer", on that task force was a woman named Nancy Gorden, I think she is my favorite character. Even after the police named a killer, Nancy knew they had caught the wrong man and after ten years travels to Portland, Oregon where she has had word of the new killings. Her determination to end the case brings justice to all who suffered. One of the books main themes is false identities and raises the question Of who can you really trust? Many characters raise that question. I think the Book was absolutely great, it kept me wondering, and who's the real killer? The Author, Phillip Margolin really knows how to write about murder, lies, and Mystery. Not only does he write a good novel, but most of the facts come from His own life. Phillip Margolin is a criminal defense attorney, like the character Betsy, he has many high profile murder cases and was first lawyer in Oregon to Use Battered women's syndrome in a homicide case. The book doesn't use too much description, but enough to let you know What's going on. The characters each have their own personalities, when he Describes what they feel, it just fits the kind of person the are. One of the Most exciting parts in the book is when Betsy starts to doubt her client Martin Darius. Being a lawyer she has always believed that your own beliefs can't get In the way of the person you're defending and if you can't handle that you shouldn't Be a lawyer. With this case, couldn't help the feelings she had, she didn't want To be know as the lawyer who let free a serial killer. There are many more events That takes place, like when they travel to the place where the first murders Happened and find out the truth. Another scene is where they find the missing Women. I wish I could tell all, but that would spoil it for everyone who wants to Read this book. The book is so good I'm sure you won't want to put it down.

Summary: You can't run away from your past sins!!
Review: An arrogant, prominent lawyer/businessman who is also a serial killer (who leaves behind a black rose and a "Gone, but not forgotten" note) is secretly pardoned by the police & local government officiales in an exclusive residential area. His victim's cases were treated as disappearences because no body was found, except for the last two victims, which were his own wife and baby daughter. However, when he moves to another state and assumes another identity to continue his life, the murders/disappearances begin again in the exact same fashion, but he's being framed. Someone from his past comes back to haunt him and the mystery unwravels. Great reading!! Couldn't put it down!!

The plot, the intensity, the twists & turns will keep you rivited until the last page! An excellent book! You will not be disappointed!

Summary: Nail biting from beginning to end!!
Review: Gone but not forgotten was one of the best suspense novels I've ever read. Margolin rivals the likes of a Thomas Harris. The plot was thick with thrills and the characters had you going. I loved the twists that the book held from beginning to the very end. If you've not had the pleasure of enjoying a Phillip Margolin novel, this one's the best to start with. There's none better than him on the market. Get prepared to hang on for the ride of your life!

Review: Gone, but Not Forgotten by Phillip Margolin was one of the best mystery novels that I have ever read. Once I opened the book I could not put it down. After reading Gone, but Not Forgotten I had to read the rest of his novels and I have to say that this was my favorite. I like Phillip Margolin's style, he knows how to write a good page turner. I would definately recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a good mystery.

Summary: Best book I have read in months
Review: Gone, but Not Forgotten was the best mystery thriller that I have read in months (if not years). The author kept the plot twisting until the last page. Very good book - with just enough scare in it to make you jumpy.

Summary: As good as it gets
Review: Great read, one of the best and sickest mysteries I have read in a long time. It keeps looking like the story is going to be predictable and then Margolin throws you off track. Very complellig, you will be engrossed from the moment you start reading it.
