Blindfold Game (Abridged) Audiobook

" I prefer the Kate Shugak books. This was a competent thriller. Highlights include the details about Coast Guard operations, some entertaining digs at intelligence inefficiencies/bureaucracy, and Arlene. "

" Good mystery for a day off or to take along when traveling. Built around the fears and tensions of our post-9/11 world, the story involves a complicated plan to launch a dirty bomb, the lone CIA agent who figures things out but can't get anyone to believe him, and the crew of a Coast Guard cutter that is the only thing between the terrorists and their target. Oh yeah, and one of the officers on the cutter is the estranged wife of the CIA guy, just for good measure. It starts out a little slow as the various plot threads get established, but builds to a dramatic finish on stormy seas. A fun read for a lazy afternoon. "

" This is my first time reading this author. I thought the beginning of this book started real slow for me. I was on board about midway through though and enjoyed the ending! A nice quick read to pass away the rainy weekend! "

" Taut thriller, with the Coast Guard in the forefront. Sara lange and Hugh Rincon were in Prepared for Rage, but I don't remember exactly how. Riveting story of being on a Coast Guard cutter out of Alaska, boarding other ships and fighting against international terrorism. Life in the cutter explained really well. Stabenow deliberately let the reader think that both Koreans and crews were loaded onto the same ship. Confusing later to find out there were two. "

" Spies, terrorist and Dirk Pitt like hers. Not my sort of novel. Stopped after 6 chapters. "

" Great suspense. She writes to where you feel you are there. Great reminders of Alaska. "

" listening to this while I quilt. So far, this is gooooooood! "

" Very good action novel. International intrigue. Takes place in the Bering Sea. Threat to the security of Alaska. I don't want to give the plot away. Must read if you like action. "

" Dana Stabenow is the master. This USCG thriller rocks. "

" good, but not as good as the series "

" Brilliant book. The story is just on the edge of plausibility which makes for an even more chilling experience!! "

" Not a Kate Shugak novel, but was fun to read. Makes me want to get back to Alaska sooner rather than later. "

" Love Kate Shugak. Love Liam Campbell. Not too crazy about this one. "

" A thriller. Learned more than I will ever need to know about the U.S. Coast Guard. Good characters & unique plot. "

" Found this a bit slow for quite a bit. "

" Dana Stabenow is one of my favorite mystery/thriller writers for her Kate Shugak series. This book is not part of the series, has suspense, good descriptions of U.S. Coast Guard on patrol in Bering Sea. "

" Not one of her better books. "

" Entirely different from any Dana Stabenow book I have read!!! "

" Slow starter but a bang-up finish! "

" Plausible tale of terrorists vs US Coast Guard in the Bering Sea, Good description of Alaska's unforgiving seas. "

" A good story. I will read more from this author. Very well-written, true to life. "

" A fair spy thriller. The first 2/3 of this book is often slow and boring, but it has a bang up ending which helps rescue it from the scrap list. "

" By far the very best book I have read by this author. I enjoyed every page. "

" A good, tense (mostly) maritime thriller. "

" Another great book by Dana. This one uses the Coast Guard as a back drop. I learned alot about this branch of the armed forces. This is part spy novel, part mystery. Really a fun read. "
