"Jane Whitefield is Native American woman who helps people escape from those who would harm thiem; this is the first book in this series i have read (and I plan to go back and read the previous five books). In this book, a young pregnant woman shows up asking for help to get away from six people wh are chasing her. Good read"
"First Sentence: The girl kept half-turning in the back seat to stare out the rear window of the cab, as though she were being chased across Buffalo to the hospital.
In the past 10 years, Jane Whitefield no longer helps people in need disappear from their lives. She has married and is living with her husband, Dr. Carey McKinnon in Buffalo New York. Organizing a fund raiser at the hospital, Jane feeling that something is wrong is proved correct when an explosion occurs.
A young, very pregnant, woman tells Jane she is the cause. She is being sought by six people and needs to disappear in order to keep herself, and her baby, safe.
What happened? I used to love the Jane Whitefield books but this was dreadful from the very beginning. ---NOT REALLY A SPOILER since it happens within the first few pages--- Even the initial premise of the bad guys setting off a bomb so the hospital would be evacuated and they could kidnap the girl was absurd. Hello?!? If you want the hospital to be evacuated, you call in a bomb threat, not set one off. And that they set the bomb off in the kitchen the night there just happened to be a fundraiser? No, no, no.
Nothing worked here. It was basically a long road trip without much suspense. The motive behind it all made the book a basic wall-banger for me. I'm afraid, to quote the "Who" song, "Won't get fooled again." Skip this one.
RUNNER (Susp-Jane Whitefield-US-Cont) - NR Perry, Thomas - 6th in series Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, 2009, US Hardcover - ISBN: 9780151015283"
"Yeah, Jane is back and in good form. She even managed to elude all those nasty homeland-security/patriot act rules so she can make another person disappear.
Thomas Perry writes great characters and his plotting is fast pace. I stayed glued to the book until the wee hours. Glad to see Jane will continue helping people disappear."
"A new Jane Whitefield book after a nine-year hiatus is something to celebrate. I really like this series, enough to have reread most of them while I was waiting for a new one. I enjoy the twists of Perry's plotting, and I always like books where the protagonist needs to keep coming up with moves to counter new dangers and difficulties. I also like the fact that Jane Whitefield is Seneca, which permits the novelist to incorporate some Indian lore, and that she is a smart, capable woman who handily defeats male antagonists twice her size. The ending seems to suggest that the series is resuming, and that's what I like most of all!"
