One of the best dectective mysteries!

+ Great beginning to a terrific series

I loved this book and I highly recommend this series, especially if you live in Seattle, WA or have visited the state of Washington. J.A. Jance keeps you turning the pages to see what happens next and I read the first 3 books in the J.P. Beaumont series which are in (Sentenced to die) in 10 days. ...

Incredible

+ Be patient, and let the riches unfold
+ Dive in the water's deep

I am not completely done with it, work in progress, but so far Anne Perry has done a great job with her visualizations and connecting me emotionally to the characters and their qwests. If you have read part of it before and quit, I really suggest giving it another try. If you can brave through ...

My Favorite of the Elvis Cole Novels So Far

Robert Crais

Simon & Schuster, 2008

Great book, great series overall

+ Another great book

I had never read any books by Robert Crais prior to 2 months ago when I picked up Chasing Darkness. I had seen the name Elvis Cole here and there and thought any book with a PI named Elvis was probably going to be a joke, literally and figuratively. I am glad I overcame my own foolish ...

Elvis Cole is one of the great detectives

+ 4.5 stars
+ Sunset Express

The more I read Crais's Elvis Cole novels, the more I find myself enjoying them. Sunset Express was no exception. I actually hadn't read the cover copy before I started the book so I was disappointed when it didn't start off sounding like a Cole novel. Never fear, though, Elvis soon enters the ...

A great introduction to the author

This is the first book of Jance's I picked up. The Arizona setting was enjoyable, as were the Indian characters . I would recommend this novel, and I'm looking forward to some of the other Jance offerings.

A review of the abridged audio edition

+ 4.5 stars
+ Good, but not as good as his other books

First - usually I hate abridged works because they are TOO abridged. This one was not, to its credit. Demolition Angel is a first-rate thriller and a pleasure to listen to - it really perked up my morning drive for about a week. If you are a fan of the Elvis Cole novels this one is a must-read ...
