    this has been a really good book. I started this book late yesterday evening. I read over half of it last night before I went to bed.

    Coulter slipped off the edge with this one, and it is a shame. The writing was poor - were you in a hurry, Catherine? Seems so, as the dialog and misses in the narrative made this a difficult read. That, and you know . . . she sort of went right over the cliff into unreal weirdness in this one. Too many really way out there plot lines. I can handle quite a bit of 'unbelievable' but this one? Nah. Really not something I would want to repeat. It's a shame, really, as I have enjoyed the others in this series. I will try the next, but I hope her editor is back on staff.

    I found the idea of this book to be intriguing. The story tells of a young lady who is being stalked; she reports this to the police but they do not believe her and, in fact, begin to accuse her of causing the problems she reports. She therefore chose to take care of herself, which included getting to a small town she had heard of from a college friend. There are twists and turns in the story involving criminals and good guys. So -- good idea. Bad execution. This is the first Coulter story I have read, and based on this book, I would not look for others to read. I was sorely disappointed. The writing seemed juvenile; I was surprised to see she had other books that had been published (this read too much like a first-time, self-published stereotype of a book.) I finished reading the entire book, but at the end felt I had wasted my time. Other reviewers imply that this author's other works are of better quality. Perhaps if I stumble onto another of her titles, I will give it a try. Perhaps not. I was too disappointed in this one.

    I automatically buy her books whenever I see them. Coulter has never disappointed me. I read until the wee hours of the morning and then couldn't wait to get home to read some more. The characters are warm and interesting. I appreciate her sense of humor.

    Rebecca Matlock new she had to get away so she went to a little out of the way town called Riptide. No matter how many times she told the police that someone was after her, they just wouldn't believe her. There seemed to be only one, Adam Carruthers, that not only knew she was telling the truth, but knew why. Is Adam and his men smart enough to figure out who it is before it is too late.On the back cover of this book, Catherine Coulter challenges you to figure out the puzzle, I have to admit, I figured some but not all of this one out. This is an excellent mystery/thriller but I wasn't as impressed with the charecters as I normally am with her FBI series. While Savich and Sherlock were there, I was disappointed with the interaction between the main characters. It was humorous at times but the chemistry was lacking something, I liked them both but there was just something missing. Still a great book, had trouble putting it down.
