I liked this book.
I suppose that's obvious from the stars that I gave and the fact that I'm even writing a review in the first place.
However, I liked the first book better. I'm just a fan of Mal and Charlie as the main characters. BUT. Nick was a decent lead and Ann/Emme was an interesting character. I felt more connected to her than I did to Mal even though the characters have very similar backgrounds.

Cry Mercy, by Mariah Stewart, B-plus, narrated by Joyce Bean, produced by Brilliance Audio, downloaded from audible.com.
I enjoyed Stewart’s “Truth” series so much that I immediately bought this one when it was available. Apparently this is already the second book in the “Mercy” series. The Mercy Foundation was set up to provide service to families tracking down a missing family member after the police had given up. Their first case is one involving the disappearance of a sorority ...more

It started out great, but overall, the book was just okay. The secondary stories were kind of distracting and the resolution of the primary story was too abrupt for my taste.
I think that this book was a very good book. It has a very interesting plot and it has loads of suspense. I can barely put down the book after I started reading it. The author described every situation very well that I can picture it in my head. This book is actually about a mother who used to be a police. She adopted a criminal's child after her desperate pleas. She kept trying to run away and hide her daughter, Chloe, afraid that Chloe's biological father would find Chloe and take her away. Th...more

I am discovering a new author, Mariah Stewart. Her stories are interesting, mysterious without too much technicalities. I find myself reading every page instead of skipping lots of pararaphs. This story is a sequel to Mercy Street but if you haven't read the first I don't think you'll notice it. Its about a foundation who looks for missing people that the FBI or other offcials have given up on and about the people who run the organization. If you like mystery you'll like this.
AWESOME! Mallory Russo features in this one but as a background character. The main focus is on Emme Caldwell (and her daughter Chloe) who joins the Mercy Street Foundation as an investigator. Her first case with MSF is finding a 19 year old college student who disappeared without a trace five months before. The case involves artificial insemination and donor siblings - children created from the same "donor/father" sperm. A very intriguing and complicated mystery with a rather sat...more
I read this book last night when I couldn't sleep. I wasn't even tired, so I just lay there at o'dark 30 and read this whole book in about 4 hours. I found it very entertaining and relatively predictable, though there were a few unanticipated details to keep the story fresh and interesting. This is great brain candy if you have a few hours to just relax and get through a book.
2od in the Mercy Street novels. These are very quick reads but interesting. I am ready to read the next one but it isn't out yet. These are good books to pick up at the library.
It is not a book I would ever read again!

The 2nd in this series. It was a great book and I really want to read the last one, but unfortunately my Mother picked it up and it really wouldn't be nice to take it back. I'll give her a few days before I get ugly.
I have enjoyed everthing I have read by this author. Mariah never disappoints. THe 2nd in the series of the Mercy Street and it was better than the 1st. Can't wait till the 3rd. Her series are always in 3s.
I liked the characters, but I disliked the shifting perspectives: this book was told in third person point of view, which made it kind of confusing keeping track of everything.
I had read another of this series some years ago -- and had forgotten how much I enjoyed Mariah Stewart. Cry Mercy is a nice read -- a good one for the beach, too!

This book is pretty interesting. It goes under the mystery catigory. The beginning of the book kepps you wondering. The first couple of pages makes you want to keep on reading. As you read along in your head you imagin whats going on. The blood on the walls, the house, the setting, place, mood. Everything. At least thats what was going through my head.

I listened to the audio book. I liked the story and the characters. I would recommend it to those who like Catherine Coulter's romantic suspense novels.
A good quick thriller which motivated me to keep exercising because I listened to it on CD while I worked out. The ending was a bit implausible.
MEh... just as long in the tooth writing wise as it's predecessor. One more book in the series. I hope she wraps it up better in this one
I loved this book. Mariah Stewart is fast becoming one of my fav authors!

A great sequel to what I hope to be a good series. My mom just bought the third so I hope to add that soon!
I liked this one enough to read more in the series. Nothing too serious but a good book.
A little intense. I did enjoy it. I gave it a 3 because of some adult themes.
Great book, again grab my attention right away and just flew by the pages.
2nd installment in the Mercy Foundation Series. Fast read. Involved thriller!
This second book of the Mercy series is even better than the first!
Good. A fast, easy read. 1st in a series of three.
