As a longtime fan of Stella Cameron, I opened this book with great anticipation. I have enjoyed many of her other works enormously. This was a severe disappointment. Every British word that had a different American word was thrown in helter skelter. The British woman was a stylized characature of the dowdy, fussy, lost-to-reality, typecast character and that was sad. The plot was Laurel and Hardy meets the Keestone Kops and the Three Stooges. You could pick apart the way it loosely hung together quite easily. Some places how the bad guys and good guys found each other was inexcusably lame. This book had a lot of potential but was destroyed by trying to make it more comedic in nature than it deserved. My sincere hope is that her next effort will have a more plausible set of circumstances with better character development than shown in this book.

Another best from Ms. Cameron. Highly recommended. The plot was engrossing and fast-paced. I could hardly put it down. Ms. Cameron just gets better and better every time.

Report this reviewThank you, this review has been flagged.To the despair of his friend and partner Vani, NYPD detective Aiden Flynn has no social life outside of the cyber-zone. When Aiden¿s computer goes on the fritz, he goes upstairs to use his neighbor¿s computer. His neighbor is also a cop who happens to be away on vacation. While going through his e-mail, Aiden finds several notes addressed to FBI agent Sam Ryan from a terrified British photographer Olivia FitzDurham. Aiden thinks his neighbor Ryan, aka Sam, must be dirty and has involved Olivia in something dangerous. Aiden pretends to be Sam and asks Olivia to come to the States so he can protect her.
A series of frightening incidents leads Olivia to conclude she is safer in America than her home in London where people want to buy some worthless photos. Ryan convinces his superiors that Olivia and Aiden are violent criminals and now have all of NYPD chasing after them. Ryan and his cohorts want them dead so Aiden and Olivia flee the city, ring to catch the criminals and clear Aiden and Olivia¿s name. While on the run they fall in love with each other.
The amazement of a Stella Cameron novel is that her taut romantic thrillers contain offbeat humor that leave the audience laughing yet concerned, and definitely hooked. GLASS HOUSES is one of Ms. Cameron¿s best works due in part to the innocent heroine caught in someone else¿s web, the befuddled hero trying to protect her from bumbling crooks, and a dog with iron teeth. This novel is another winner from one of the great authors of the past decade.
