If I am to be honest, I must go right back to an old master of tale telling, one who knew how to roll the complexities of life into a few well chosen words.

William Shakespeare and the world famous Romeo and Juliette.

Why pick these, the answer is simple, they had it all. They suffered under a love the whole world was against. They defied all odds to grab a moment of bliss and never viewed the world less for its harshness. In the end, a life without the other was such a dull and thankless gift that the would gladly forgo it for the slightest promise of being together in a future that may just be a dream. What more can love be and what more can one give than their everything.

Feel free to call me a fool but that is my idea of love in the ages.

            Itwas a perfect day; a perfect day for a new beginning. Sunshine streamed throughthe windows; it's rays, softened by net curtains, danced with dust motsfloating on invisible currents of air. The stairs creaked happily under Jenny'ssneakers. She glanced over her shoulder at me and her eyes sparkled withdelight. A foot of blonde hair bounced in a no-nonsense ponytail, my sweatshi

A follow-on from, The girl who played with fire, and it drops right in where that book left off. The first quarter of the book is gripping and I'm rightly hooked again. I'll say it again, why did the author have to pick so many similar names? It's co ...more

Wow. Some books turn off your brain as they take you for a ride, this one turns it on and refuses to let it rest. Coming from Ireland I'm blessed to live in a peaceful, mostly lawful country. It's a safe place where help is always available in any ti ...more

A well crafted tale, I liked the writers voice and the characters were well rounded. That Duncan Stone is one nasty piece of work. There were a few points where the story went slightly over the top, but in general a page turner.

I liked the premise; a suicide that the main character just won't buy and she goes digging. Adding the old money family and cold mother, he nicely builds the layer cake of this tale. I was hooked.

Then we land in Croatia and things start going wrong,

A real old fashioned spooky story. I just loved it. There were elements of this story which reminded me of the best King books of old. I am so intrigued to see what happens with Sam.

This was my first read of a Peter James book and I liked it.

Out of the gate he had his hooks in me, always a good thing. Slick opening chapters painted an interesting backstory with a few well chosen lines. I much prefer this to a fifty page build up

My first LB book and it was good. Took me a while to warm to some of the characters but it was always entertaining. The ending earned it an extra star from me.

4.5 really.

A great book if you ask me so I won't impinge on anyone's pleasure. I did dock it a half a point because I would have enjoyed it a little more if the signposts for the wrong turns along the way were staged a little more discreetly.
