I always wait for Carla Negger's books, and I am never disappointed. I can't understand the negative comments. This is a GREAT book. The heroine is a hoot and everything is tied together perfectly. What I like best about her books is that you really feel like you are there...in the setting. It's very rich and fully of detail.

Mackensie Stewart is a new U.S. Marshal who gets caught up in a string of knifing attacks, one of them to herself. Mystery, romance, beautiful setting - good read.

Carla Neggers is such a good author of murder/suspense stories. Always look forward to her latest one.
Good intrigue and well developed characters.:-)
Occasionally, I suffer from insomnia and lie awake in bed, trying to return to sleep. Last night, I awoke at 12:10 am and decided that if I couldnt sleep, I would read. I picked up this book, having never read one of Carla Neggerss books before. I finished it at 1:27 am. And barely remembered who the main characters were.
The book is classified as romantic suspense, and there is romance between US Marshal Mackenzie Stewart and FBI agent Andrew Rook; they share a couple of hot nights together. But theres no suspense here, only a lackluster story about two men, one of whom is newly divorced from a Federal judge, trying to blackmail a violent sociopath named Jesse, who does add some tension to the book but not enough to save it.
I probably wont seek out any more of her books if this is any indication of how she writes. Id rather re-read Patricia Cornwells Scarpetta series.

I enjoyed reading this book. It kept my attention throughout, to the point of not wanting to put it down.
I really enjoyed this book. Suspenseful and intriguing.
I really liked this. I have read a few by her that I didn't like all that much, but I'm glad I gave her another chance because this one was really good. Likable characters and a lot of suspense. Really good overall.
Good book
Good Suspense and Romance! :)
Love this author
Good book, but not one of Carla Neggers best.
This new book held me captive from cover to cover! Extremely well written, and characters done well also.
A mssing federal informant, a fugitive on the loose. And a new deputy marshall who's already broken her own rules.
First time I have read a book by this author and I was not too impressed
From the back of the book--A missing federal informant. A fugitive on the loose. And a new deputy marshall who's already broken her own rules.
