CREATION IN DEATH

Author: J. D. Robb
Rating: 10

Jan's Opinion: I am a big fan of Eve Dallas' character in J. D. Robb's "...In Death" series of books, and I certainly wasn't disappointed in this one! In fact, it is my favorite so far, if that's possible. A serial killer who slipped through Eve's fingers 9 years ago is back on the scene and he wants Eve for his final "prize". I figured he is pretty stupid if he thinks he can catch "kick-ass Eve" but I have to tell you, I was biting my nails until the very end!

DOUBLE CROSS

Author: James Patterson
Jan's Rating: 9

If you have been reading all of the "Alex Cross" books, you know who Kyle Craig is. Alex Cross is responsible for putting him in a maximum security prison 4 years ago after a series of brutal murders. Kyle has just escaped from the prison and is out to find Alex and get even. As if that isn't enough, there is another serial killer out to get Alex so he had better watch his back. When Alex isn't looking over his shoulder for these killers, he has a new love interest named Bree, and it sounds like she just might be a "keeper". The ending leaves you looking forward to his next book.

SLEEPING WITH FEAR

Author: Kay Hooper
Rating: 8

Riley Crane is a member of the FBI's Special Crimes Unit and is a clairvoyant, which is a talent that helps her solve crimes, until someone messes with her powers, tases her, and now she can't remember why she came to Opal Island, or that she has fallen in love with the local District Attorney, Ash Prescott. She knows her life is in danger but she doesn't give up searching for the answers she so desperately needs because she knows this person is a murderer. I enjoyed this book from beginning to end and think Kay Hooper is a great writer.
