Spider Mountain: A Novel18 reviews P. T. Deutermann St. Martin's Press, 2006 Very exciting sequel + Better than Spenser + Unusual plot This sequel to "Cat Dancers" is a stand alone story but reading the first book would help understand the characters and some of the story line. That said, don't start this one unless you are prepared to dedicate some seriou time to finishing it. The action is constant, the dialogue crisp and the ...             Nineteen Minutes: A Novel426 reviews Jodi Picoult Atria, 2007 Nineteen Minutes + Haunting In Its Subject And Brings Back Memories + exceptional read + Nineteen Minutes + A Novel             The Echelon Vendetta24 reviews David Stone Putnam Adult, 2007 Fast paced spy thriller, easy to read and hard to put down. + Excellent spy thriller + very good + Loved it until the last few chapters (warning: spoilers)             Flesh and Bone: A Body Farm Novel (Body Farm)28 reviews Jefferson Bass William Morrow, 2007 Maggots, blowflies and red herrings + Definitely not a cozy!!!! + Pretty good + Reviewed for Midwest Book Review             Deadman's Poker: A Novel36 reviews James Swain Fawcett, 2006 Gotta Go On, Cuz the Story Never Ended + First of Two-Parter This is a very good, hold `em in your seat story, not really a thriller, not really a mystery either, well kind of a mystery. The story opens in a New Jersey hospital where Jack Donovan is dying of cancer. He's telling his friend Gerry Valantine that he's figured out a way to never lose at poker. ...             A Dangerous Man: A Novel26 reviews Charlie Huston Ballantine Books, 2006 Mind Blowing + Our Beloved Hank Thompson.... + Wow! + Great end to a great trilogy             Daddy's Girl58 reviews Lisa Scottoline HarperCollins, 2007 Not the typical Scottline book + A must read for all women + Daddy's Firl Not the typical Scottline. The herion, although strong, seems conflicted. This does not take away from the plot, which in Scottline fashion has many twists and turns. Can't figure out the reason for the title. Who picked it out? Anyway it's still worth reading.             Obsession58 reviews Karen Robards Putnam Adult, 2007 (4.5 Stars) A Departure From Her Usual Work + Suspense Obsession is a science fiction thriller, and a pretty big departure from Karen Robards usual work. I'd characterize the book as more of a mystery/thriller than a romance novel. Although much of the storyline is highly implausible, I don't really think it's intended to be "scientifically accurate" ...             High Profile (Jesse Stone)72 reviews Robert B. Parker Putnam Adult, 2007 another ho-hum reading experience, for the most part I did like the actual mystery in this one, but so many other things made it not a great read. I've been having a problem for a while with the way Jesse and Jen's "relationship" keeps plugging along. I will admit that I typically have problems with those relationships (real, fictional--it ...             The Hidden Assassins16 reviews Robert Wilson Harcourt, 2006 Best in the series + Very Good Book But Too Much Going On + complex & mature thriller + Trail of Death             Sick Puppy227 reviews Carl Hiaasen Vision, 2001 It made me smile I smiled as I read this book. I laughed out loud many times. I liked it. My review isn't much to go on, but it's my opinion and when you boil down all the crap in all reviews, whether good or bad, that's all they are...just subjective opinions. My opinion is all that matters...trust me. HA!             The Concrete Blonde (Harry Bosch)105 reviews Michael Connelly Grand Central Publishing, 2007 A slick thriller. Bosch has always been on his game. + Fabulous, as always! + The Concrete Blonde, by Michael Connelly + The best Harry Bosch story so far? + Amazing story-lots of twists and turns ... is justice REALLY blind?             Restless: A Novel44 reviews William Boyd Bloomsbury USA, 2007 Outstanding -- But Not a Genre Spy Novel + Good entertaining + Part historical novel, part spy thriller - great story! + An Unusual Spy Novel + Interesting spy story             The King of Torts573 reviews John Grisham Delta, 2005 Great story with an intriguing insight to the world of class action law suits + It's About Time + I now consider this fantastic after a 2nd read + Great read!             Turning Angel: A Novel140 reviews Greg Iles Scribner, 2005 Great Reading + I Hated to See This Book End! + A page-turning thriller + SENSATIONAL             Murder at the Opera: A Capital Crimes Novel (Capital Crimes)13 reviews Margaret Truman Ballantine Books, 2006 Another Delightful "Mac and Annabelle Smith" Installation + Murder at the Opera I have been reading Margaret Truman for years, and during that time, Mac and Anabelle Smith have become my favorite characters. Like her earlier title "Murder in Havana," this latest installment in the Capital Crimes series mirrors current events to create an intriguing, believable mystery. Truman ...             The Interpretation of Murder: A Novel58 reviews Jed Rubenfeld Henry Holt and Co., 2006 La interpretación del Asesinato.- + Amazing Tapestry - one loose thread + Audio Book Review Entrando ya en nuestra materia, en principio, las quinientas treinta y cinco páginas se ven algo amenazantes para un lector que se encuentra revisando a un escritor debutante. Pero pronto veremos que esas páginas, finalmente se harán pocas. Nos encontramos en New York a principios del siglo veinte ...             Sacred Games: A Novel57 reviews Vikram Chandra HarperCollins, 2006 An absorbing read, but . . . + Good work by Vikram Chandra + Thriller and social study in one I was having such a satisfying read, until that late chapter on "two deaths" that contained the back-story about Aadil. That was a grind for the most part and unnecessary to the story, but managed to leave me with a visual image about the event that led to his life of crime (and death of ...             Echo Burning (Jack Reacher)100 reviews Lee Child Berkley Trade, 2005 Child at his best + one of the best Reacher novels, intense climax + Not the best Reacher novel, but Reacher consistently entertains. This one starts slowly, leading up to a firecracker of an ending, typical of Lee Child novels. Jack Reacher, the ex army police officer turned freelance lawman who never hesitates to stick his nose into private business, takes his lively act to Texas, embroiling himself in what starts as a messy ...             Magic City: A Novel (Thorn Mysteries)20 reviews James W.
