" With the exception of the fact that I should have read this book before I read Countdown (which continues the story of Cira) this was a good story. This book begins the tale of Cira, a female Roman slave, and a man's obsession with her (even though she's dead). The bigger deal is that Eve's adopted daughter is "dreaming" about her and is a target for a serial killer because she's a Cira look-a-like. And of course the ending is really not and ending as it continues on in Countdown. "

" Another Eve Duncan novel. This time forensic sculptor recognized the face in the clay as she works on her most recent case ... but that face belongs to someone who isn't dead ... at least not yet. This time Eve works against time to catch a killer before he strikes again, because this time, it's personal. "

" I have always enjoyed reading Iris Johansen's work. In particular, her Eve Duncan series. However, I found Blind Alley to be lacking the punch that her earlier works exhibited. As an avid reader, I am all for using the imagination a little when the story is captivating, but this teetered on the realm of too far fetched. However, the story was just captivating enough to hold the reader from beginning to end but I fear that the average person might be left as I was: unsatisfied. "

" This is a suspenseful tale involving a forensic sculptor and other characters. It is part mystery/suspense and part supernatural. It doesn't entirely succeed at either though it is an OK read. "

" Really interesting - the idea that someone who looks just like you is killed specifically because the killer thought it was you and then the only way to stay alive is to let your friends and family all think you are still dead until you can trap the killer yourself...awesome.. "

" Once again, a good book from Iris. The thing I like about her books is that, even though they are part of a series, they can still be read alone (i.e. out of order), because they each have thier own adventure! And, her strong female characters rock!! "

" This book was okay... I am kinda getting aggravated that she does not stay on top of the forensic parts for the books...I am taking a break as I got aggravated with the Ciara bit of this book.. Will be back to read the rest later :)

" Well, I didn't realize I had already read this book until a few pages in ( I hate getting old!). I couldn't remember how it ended so I read it again. It is a little strange (hints of reincarnation) but it is very interesting and a quick read (especially the 2nd time)!
