"I don't know why but you will sometimes find Kay Hoopers books in romance instead of crime. She does have a romance series but they are not the same as these.I can't figure it out because they are not bodice ripper type of novels. They are a great read with a little bit of 'six sense' involved."

— Publishers Weekly“Cristine McMurdo-Wallis’ performance draws out the complexity of the plot. As she develops her characters with care and distinction, she plays upon mood as a critical component of the drama and suspense, keeping it all in balance and playing out the tension without letting it run rampant…Compelling.”
— AudioFile“A serial-killer tale charged with deeply felt dread and romance that will steal readers’ hearts.”
— Booklist" It has to be said I'm not really a fan of the paranormal being mixed with other genres, in this case, serial killer-police procedural.... I do prefer one or the other. Having said that, I did quite enjoy this book. It was fast paced and well written. I will give others in this series a go to see if this "mixed genre" thing can grow on me! "
— Lisa, 2/19/2014" This one was ok, but also kind of cheesy. "
— Petula, 2/15/2014" A great start to the Bishop series by Kay Hooper. Gave great hints, kept me guessing until the end where it took an unexpected twist. I will definitely be finishing up this series! "
— Sydney, 2/11/2014" Kay Hooper's Shadow series is pure entertainment. I love the way she writes and her characters. If you want a book just for the fun of reading this is your series! "
— Lori, 1/28/2014" Easy reading. I guessed the major killer early but did not pick up the final person and his abilities at all. "
— Kshydog, 1/23/2014" I Loved this book. Mystery, suspense, paranormal, all mixed in to one. Great read! Can't wait to read the next one!! "

— Kaycee, 12/28/2013" Now that I've finished J.D. Robb's "In Death" series (except for the last book), I decided to re-read Kay Hooper's Bishop series, since I just bought the last two published before Christmas, and wanted to re-read from the beginning. "
— C.G., 12/27/2013" Super creepy, along the lines of Mary Higgins Clark. Weirdly though, it looks like the rest of the series is not about the main character. I liked the writing so I'll keep reading. "
