This one, I really enjoyed. It started out a little on the meek side for Eve, but I was pleased to see her evolve into the strong character that she deserves to be. I would have liked to see her more humble and less selfish. Her relationship with Joe is on thin ice and it seems like it may be coming to an end.

Montalvo has narrowed list of potential kidnappers/killers of Bonnie. Joe is in hot pursuit of the lead. When the sheriff is murdered by Kistle, who is as keen and adept as Montalvo and Joe, the drama really begins to ensue. Kistle contacts Eve to taunt her..."Do you still miss your little Bonnie?"

Kistle ups the gameplay and draws Eve into a game of save another child and find out where your Bonnie is. Is Kistle the killer? With the help of Megan Blair, a listener, Eve, Joe, Montalvo, and Miguel are able to locate the little girl (alive) and many more children that Kistle has killed. Is Bonnie among them? While Joe is rescuing Montalvo, Miguel, and Laura Ann, Eve is drawn into Kistle's island... Can she stop Kistle?

I got this from the library yesterday and started reading it before bed. An hour later I found I was 60 pages into the book and the only reason I was putting it down was because I couldn't stay awake. It looks like it will be a quick read, not necessarily from the way the book is formatted.

The book appears to be setup for paperback issue. It has a huge font, big spacing between the lines - the white space is terribly obvious. This will go down to paperback size without becoming a big pb. ( )

Overall, I thought that this was a great book. I felt it lagged in certain areas in the sense that it just kept going on and on. I found myself skimming those areas looking for quotation marks because I knew that a character was speaking again. The plot is very well written and although I felt it took some time to get the ball rolling, once it did, the lead up to the climax was everything and more than I expected. It was a good book with a great plot and definitely draws you in and doesn't let go, even after you've read the last sentence. Looking forward to reading the next book in this series. ( )

I love Iris Johansen's books. I was on the edge of my seat with this one the whole time. Montalvo is such an interesting man, but Miquel is my favorite character in this book. This is fast paced and action packed. ( )

I was skeptical at first as I was having trouble getting through the first 30 pages or so. Once, I was past that, I read the rest of the book in less than a day. It was a great physcological thriller and really left you hanging on the edge of your seat to read the next page. ( )
