Too many unanswered questions. When did Jeremy Nilsen die? What happened to Renee Nilsen? And Donald? Based on page 124, I thought Thomas killed Ted? I liked the intertwining story plots. Just wanted loose ends tied.

Hurray! I have finally found a mystery writer who is, to me, on a par with my beloved Louise Penny. And that despite the fact that the Tami Hoag book I grabbed off the New Releases shelf is the sixth (and last) in her Kovac and Liska…

This crime mystery reads like a gritty television police drama. Suspense, flawed characters, and stories that intersect in unexpected ways.

EXCELLENT, excellent mysteries - two of them. Will keep you guessing right until the bitter end. Ugly people in ugly situations throughout. Hoag never ceases to come up with new plots and wonderful characters in her novels: she really…

Rather a twisty plot but comes together at the end. Very unlikeable cast of characters victims and perps. Glad I am not a detective because they deal with this every day.

Two separate investigations that roll out as two stories but ultimately converge into one. The characters are well-defined, the plot is complex and it was an amazing read. Enjoyed it more than "Cold Cold Heart".

Tami Hoag never disappoints and this is another good suspense novel. It was a totally unexpected ending so a nice twist at the end. It was fast paced and an enjoyable read.

A Kovac and Liska novel- both have new partners but once again, we are what are pasts have made us. Sometimes we don't know that until it's much too late and all we love is about to be lost forever.

As with other novels in this series this was a great book. She brought two story lines to life (and death!) and kept your attention to the dramatic end. She never fails to deliver a good story which you can't put down. Highly recommend.
