Summary: It's a stinker!!
Review: I read a lot and this one was horrible. The writing was very amateurish - the plot was predictible and the characters were annoying. I will not read this author again.

Summary: definetly not a dead book
Review: I went to book reading on a friday night and had Donna sign my book. I had never heard of her and after hearing her talk I decided to give her book a try. Ann Rule was right.. She is an amazing artist.This book was started at 4 saturday afternoon and finished by 7.I had intended to look at the first page.No go. I had to read the whole thing in one sitting. I was floored. It was so scary I didn't want to to put it down without making sure everything was over first. The book is about a woman who works at a Boeing like company in Seattle find that there might be a conspirisy in the hiring firing practices of her company. I can't really tell you much more beyond that, but I will tell you that you are never really sure in this book who to trust and who not too.I love that about a good book. You feel so familiar and them wham that familiarity gets you in the gut.It's one of those books that hits very close to home.I don't think I can ever live in a city agian without thinking about this book. It changes views makes you think a little more. But that's a good thing. A good book stays with you.

Summary: A real mystery
Review: I'm a mystery fan, and this book was a true mystery. I changed my mind several times about the identity of the bad guy (girl), but at the end of the book, everything made sense. I couldn't turn the pages fast enough! Yet I didn't want it to be over!

Summary: Where did the time go?
Review: If you love suspense you have to read this book. I sat down with this book to read for a few minutes and before I knew it I had read the complete book. I could not lay it down. You must read this book.

Summary: A Chilling Mystery in Seattle
Review: In the movies, Seattle is usually depicted as a romantic spot ("Sleepless in Seattle,") and in soap operas as the place everyone disappears to when they're written off the show. In Anders' latest psychological suspense, the streets, alleys, houseboats, high-rise condos and the aircraft industry of the Emerald City are permeated with terror that surpasses even her first two thrillers (Another Life and The Flower Man.) Anders has a terrific sense of suspense and she is a real story teller. I didn't know who the "bad guy--" (Bad girl?) was right up until the end, and I began to glance over MY shoulder to see who might be following ME because I got so caught up in the scariness of Dead Silence. Donna Anders is surely destined to be one of America's top suspense writers, and Dead Silence proves it. Note: Do not read this book alone at night!

Summary: Have Time set aside for this one
Review: In the same way that I have seen plane passengers enjoy being transported into dust eating denizens of the west by L'Amour books, this latest effort by Donna Anders will make someone look over his or her shoulder as they get caught caught up in the thrilling action of "Dead Silence." Ms Anders pushes all the right buttons. Check your cardiac function and don't plan to fall asleep reading this book. If this is your reading material during a long plane flight, double up on the deodorant!

Review: It is a well written book that keeps you on the edge of your chair from begining to end. I could hardly put it down once I started it.

Summary: Too wordy and not enough action
Review: Liza is a counselor for a aerospace company. Due to the large layoffs, she is helping displaced employees. There's a conspircy in her company. Too many layoffs and too much work. As she's trying to figure out what's going on. Her house is broken into. She is being followed and she can't trust anyone. Ok, sounds like a good enough story. But, Liza takes everything too lightly. Her reactions are true to human nature. The people she confides in are wearing blinders. I found myself getting really angry with the stupidity of the characters that I kept putting this book down. The story had a good storyline. Just weak everywhere else.
