Summary: A good beginning..
Review: Moira takes her new boyfriend, Michael, to a family reunion. Doing that causes tension enough in Moira's life, but her old boyfried Daniel, is also at that reunion. Using the Irish conflict as the suspense part of Heather Graham's romantic suspense, was intriguing. And, the book starts off very well. There's an early murder that sets up the feeling of menace, at Moira's family reunion. Unfortunately, my full enjoyment of the book, probably ended at that point. Moira's mixed feelings about her two men, Michael and Daniel, caused me, as a reader, feelings of distaste. When she eventually decides on one of them, the romance felt short-changed. Not the sex, just the romance. Also, although there is another murder in the book, and Moira's life is threatened by accidents, for me, the culprit seemed rather obvious. So, not only did I feel the romance was short-changed, so was the suspense. Add those facts to the heavy details about the Irish conflict and the weak romance, I really felt disappointed by this book. It really had a very good beginning.

Summary: Decent suspense novel, not much understanding for the issues
Review: Ms. Graham writes very engrossing suspense novels and this one is no exception. The characters are well developed and the story line full of twists and turns. She just doesn't have a real feel for the ethnicity of the characters, or so I feel. In spite of claims by some of the characters that they are not, she paints the Irish as revolutionaries to a man, most of them violent. Other than that, I recommend the book.

Summary: Good Suspense!
Review: This was a great book. I have never heard of this author, but she really came through. I would have never picked up this book because of the political nature of it, but it doesn't overwhelm the book too much. A great love story and shocker at the end!
