Summary: Nail biting from beginning to end!!
Review: Gone but not forgotten was one of the best suspense novels I've ever read. Margolin rivals the likes of a Thomas Harris. The plot was thick with thrills and the characters had you going. I loved the twists that the book held from beginning to the very end. If you've not had the pleasure of enjoying a Phillip Margolin novel, this one's the best to start with. There's none better than him on the market. Get prepared to hang on for the ride of your life!

Summary: Phillip Margolin has what it takes
Review: I have always loved the John Grisham books, someone else who reads them suggested I read Phillip Margolin's books also. I live in Portland, OR where Mr Margolin lives and he shares pieces of the city and state in his books, making them seem more real to me. He has a real knack for twisting plots! You think you know where the book is going and then as you read on, the book twists in a new direction. I love to read, but his books I have simply not been able to put down! I have to know what's going to happen next. Gone but not forgotten is one of his best at this. He is truely a one of the great writers. If you like mysteries and intrigue, read this, you won't be disappointed!

Summary: As good as it gets
Review: Great read, one of the best and sickest mysteries I have read in a long time. It keeps looking like the story is going to be predictable and then Margolin throws you off track. Very complellig, you will be engrossed from the moment you start reading it.

Summary: The scariest Mystery I've ever read
Review: Very good plot - full of twists and excellent tension building scenes. Sometimes the tension was so tight that I almost couldn't stand to read on. A good job of building up to the answer to who dunnit. Complex, but believable. If you want to curl up with a good scary read, read this book!

Summary: Better than Kiss The Girls......
Review: This book was one of the best I have ever read. The big twist half way through the book was original. Some of the situations lacked some believability but the book always kept me on edge.

Summary: Yes
Review: If you like this genre - mystery/thriller - then this is a great book.It's not so much the whodunnit premise but the predicament that you're put in - and even though the predicament is happening to the characters in the book, you do find yourself asking yourself what you'd do in their place. And in this book, 9 times out of 10, you have trouble deciding and are glad that it's in the book for them to take the consequences.

Summary: Good, but not the Best!
Review: I enjoyed reading this book, but found it to be disappointing compared to AFTER DARK. I was just waiting for something more exciting to happen. However, I would recommend this book to anyone who loves suspense.

Summary: An excellent read, compelling, fast speed.....but...
Review: Very gripping.., like driving a race car at fast speed in a road with many bumps, twists and turns. This is my second Philip Margollin book, my first one was The Last Innocent Man and what I see in both of them is that the author is centered on the going of the action and very skillful to create packed suspense out of the most simple circumstances. However. In my opinion as a reader, Mr Margollin should develop more deeply all his characters (lawyers, cops, judges, criminals), I mean, to give more dimensions to them besides their role in respect of the action, and also to provide more vivid and colorful descriptions of the settings (Cities, Houses, Courts, Cars, Whatever) where they play. In some chapters the mistery is not worked enough and in some events the situation is so simple that one can anticipate what is coming (I will not mention them for the benefit of other readers), so it is necessary to add other false clues to confuse and deceive the reader. Overall, is a good book in terms of action and suspense, I like it very much and took a weekend to finish it. Great company for a rainy day at home or a cloudy day in the beach.

Summary: GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN
Review: THE PLOT IS SO MOVING AND TO THE POINT. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO GUESS WHO IS SPEAKING OR WHAT IS TAKING PLACE. THE CHARACTERS YOU CAN REALLY GET INTO THEM AND THEIR POSITION WITH THE CASE. THE BEST BOOK I HAVE READ IN A LONG TIME.

Summary: Too predictable, the book
Review: The book started as a great page turner, but ended with as a dud. The author had a chance to nail an awesome, less predictable ending, but choose to wrap the book up neatly and quickly. I would call it more of a story than a mystery. The mystery is over half way through the book.
