"Sometimes I find Greg Iles highly irritating, and this was one of those times. The hero in this book was a jerk, and even the excitement of the ending (showdown with a serial killer) couldn't make up for that fact. The hero, Harper Cole, sleeps with his wife's sister, and impregnates her. He spends the first 2/3 of the book trying to rationalize/justify and hide this fact. Then, once the truth is out, he bemoans the fact that he made the "mistake" of telling her the truth, and ruined his life. Well, no, Harper, telling the truth wasn't the mistake that ruined your life, it was SLEEPING WITH YOUR WIFE'S SISTER!!! Jeez."
"I loved this book. This plot was very unique. The tech. aspect might seem a little dated, but you must remember that this book was written back in the late 90's. The greatest part of this book is that the main character was based on Greg himself. This gives the reader a main character that is imperfect and easy to relate to."
"I listened to the audio version of this in my car. I found myself looking for excuses to take long drives just to listen to it. A great suspense thriller sure to please most fans of the genre."
