Summary: This one is impossible to put down...
Review: I loved it! Daisy is a great character who finds herself alone in a town where she is suddenly in charge of the murder of her would-be boss. I couldn't turn the pages fast enough. I would recommend this one to most anyone - especially if you read and liked Palindrome (which I still think is Woods's best).

Summary: I found this book to be Thrilling!
Review: Woods has done it Again! I have yet to be disappointed reading anything written by Stuart Woods. I hope this new heroine will appear in future novels.

Summary: Good Light Read
Review: I liked all of the Stone Barrinton books, this is a nice departure. While the plot is "light", it is still worth the read. There are enough plot twists to keep you interested all the way through.

Summary: Fun To Read!
Review: All of Stuart Woods' books are so interesting and exciting that I usually finish them within a day or two, and this book is no exception. I like Woods' male characters, but being a female, I especially liked the fact that the main character in this book is a capable and confident female. (I want the her dog, Daisy) As with most of Woods' books, this book had some humorous parts that made me laugh out loud. Thanks, Stuart Woods!

Summary: Disappointing
Review: This was a waste of money and time. I bought the book because I'm in a law enforcement career, my favorite dogs are Dobermans, and I'd seen enough Stuart Woods books around that I thought he was a popular author, but I shouldn't have bothered. The dog has very little to do with the story, this supposedly intelligent policewoman falls for and trusts one of the lawyers way too fast, no character development for you to feel like you 'know' them, and the ending was too 'normal' instead of being something interesting and surprising. There's other disappointments but those are the biggies.

Summary: Couldn't Put It Down!!!
Review: I was up all night reading this book! I am a big Detective novel buff and this book filled my need for mystery. I found the dog Daisy to be a wonderful bonus character. Although, I did think that the book began to move a little fast once the FBI became involved. The whole focus of Holly's investigation into the Cheif's murder became a little unfocused. And I found it a little hard to believe that Ham, Holly's military father, just decided to retire and move to Orchid Beach to help.....a far stretch. But, over all I enjoyed the novel and can't wait to read more of Stuart Wood's work!

Summary: Woods Gets Sloppy and Lazy
Review: A weak contrived plot, wooden writing and thin characters. Stuart Woods can be entertaining and fresh, but they must be paying him too much. This is how writers lose their audiences.

Summary: What about the dog?
Review: I only read mysteries with horses or dogs in them. I bought the book only because of the pinscher on the cover. Couldn't put the book down-it was very entertaining. Daisy definately needed a bigger part. The ending was very predictable and came to a conclusion way too fast. I hope he brings Holly and Daisy back again for another adventure!

Summary: Take it for what it's worth
Review: I finished the book about 10 minutes ago. I've never read any of Woods' works before but I have to say that I will again. He's a little short on certain details, but mostly "junk" that you might likely read over in search of more depth. I have to say that I actually like his short takes on things that aren't pivotal to the story line, skipping on to the "meat". A great mystery unfolds as the reader is truely as blind to the situation as the lead character, with the plot opening up in a most timely fashion. I only wish that there were a little more substance to the ending. Definately an easy read on a summer afternoon/evening.

Summary: Enjoyable Lightweight Read
Review: I liked the characters in this story and would like to see them return in some future exploit. The suspense as to who the mole in the PD reminded me a little of some of the mysteries by Agatha Christy. The story held together well, although I thought the ending a little far-fetched. An enjoyable, lightweight read.
