Another great FBI mystery by Ms Coulter! Savich and Sherlock are working with local police and a reporter to solve the murder of Supreme Court Justice Stewart Califano.
Great book. I just loved it!!! Catherine Coulter is a great writer and I have not been disappointed with any of her books I have read so far. This is Book #9 in her FBI Thriller Series. A must read!
Husband and wife detectives, Sherlock and Savich, investigate the brutal murder of a Supremem Court Justice.
I could not get through the first chapter of this book - the conversations between the characters seemed so unnatural and totally unbelievable to me. It was such a distraction from the book that I didn't want to continue.
More Savich and Sherlock with another beauty and hunk thrown in! This is exciting.
Great story -- great suspense!
a gripping page-turner - one of her best FBI thrillers!

This book was part of a group read. I didn't like it one bit. Others did, so I suppose if you like crime thrillers then you would like it.
FBI agents Savich and Sherlock return in a dazzling new FBI thriller that takes excitement to an all-time high.
Great read-another fine example of Coulter's work!
