Summary: A Wonderful Read.
Review: Another good read by Ms Allison. I've read her other novels and even though this wasn't the best, it was good just the same. I recommend.

Review: I have never read a Margaret Allison book before, but after reading this book I am hooked. It was very suspenseful with some romance thrown in. You won't be sorry you bought it.

Rating:
Summary: Read it for the suspense, not the romance.
Review: I really enjoyed the intricate plot twists in this book. However, while you feel for the heroine, the other characters are rather undeveloped leaving you wondering at the end why she even bothered to put them in the book. The romantic element in this book is ridiculous and contrived. She could have left it out and the book would have been a five star. The romance seems unlikely and lacks emotion. Read it for the suspense.

Summary: Just Okay
Review: This is a book about a young assistant district attorney, Jan, whose sister was raped and eventually died seven years ago. Now a new rape and murder case comes to her attention and she can't help but notice the similarities. She finds out that the man accused of her sister's rape was released early from prison and wonders if he did this new rape and murder as well. However, the evidence, her sister's account of the rape and the man accused don't seem to fit. Thus begins her driven need to find the truth about her sister's rape and death and stop this serial rapist before he strikes again. She has help from the new detective in town, Max, and they struggle to put the pieces together and sort out their feelings for each other.
I was disappointed with the mystery part of this book, as I knew who the killer was right away and could plainly see how the author was trying to throw the reader off track. The characters were interesting and the elderly next door neighbor was a good addition. Overall, just okay.
