Editorial Reviews

Harriet Klausner
An intellectual version of DIE HARD ... the same frantic pace and action. The heroine symbolizes the essence that everyone wants to see in a law enforcement official as she overcomes her fears and performs with great honor and courage.... Dynamic suspense!

    Not that great

    The hero of the book is ok, but at some point the stuff she survives is ridiculous. Also, you find out early on that she, like every other cop hero in every other book, has a painful secret,and, like every other female cop hero in every other book, is tiny but feisty and attractive. The dialogue between the villians, specifically the main bad guy and his girlfriend, is just plain stupid.

    The girl cop version of " Die Hard"

    Pretty good, same problems as most action movies. No one can cheat death that many times. The bad guys should just go ahead and kill the hero/heroine, but instead they think they are gonna have fun with them later an it always ends in death of the bad guy.... Will they ever learn? Other than that, the writing and situations were good, i liked lt.
