"It's been a long time since I've read an Irene Kelly book, and this one didn't disappoint. A terribly creepy villain combined with familiar characters, along with the introduction of new characters I hope we'll see again=a winner in my opinion."

" Pretty good but the ending was a little disappointing "

" I really liked this book, couldn't put it down when I read it. Not sure if I liked it so well because I wasn't expecting to or not, but it is an Edgar Allen Poe award winner for a reason. "

" I ran across Jan Burke and loved her immediately. I started with Kidnapped and quickly worked my way through the whole series. Great female protagonist and wonderful mysteries. "

" At first I thought the book was too scary for me, and I almost stopped reading it, but getting further into it, I found it truly intriguing, and a really fascinating read. It was also very visual and would make a terrific suspense movie. "
— Spednic, 4/12/2012 -
