Summary: exciting suspense thriller
Review: A little over three years ago, a serial killer nicknamed Mobius killed four women in the Denver area. FBI agent Tess McCallum, assigned to the Denver bureau, was working the case when Mobius decided to take her out. He got into her apartment but instead of killing Tess who wasn't there, he killed her lover and partner.Two years have passed and Mobius has resurfaced in Las Angeles by killing three women using the same modus operandi that he did in Denver. Tess is brought into the case but this time the stakes are even higher. The fourth victim was carrying a chemical nerve weapon and Mobius not only knows what it is, he plans to use it. By bypassing rules, regulations and the chain of command, Tess intends to stop him any way she can. NEXT VICTIM is a chilling thriller about a weapon of mass destruction in the hands of a psychopathic madman with a score to settle. The story itself focuses on that maniacs do not have to be heads of state to obtain deadly arms. The heroine, far from destroyed by her first engagement with Mobius, is ready to do whatever needs to be done to take him down and out. She is a human being to be admired because she puts the needs of others first. Michael Prescott scores again with this exciting suspense thriller. Harriet Klausner

Summary: One you won't be able to put down!!
Review: I just want to say I love all of Michael Prescott's books. I read his first one, "Come's The Dark", and I had to go out and get all of the others. Once I start one, I can't put it down. This book really has a great twist at the end, I loved it!! I really look forward to his next one, and hope he has another one on the way!!

Summary: a near-miss
Review: I like my crime thrillers to be tough as nails. I also like them to be believable, to play smart, and to teach me a thing or three. This one scores on all counts. On the debit side, this one succumbs to the Fallacy of the Talking Killer as I believe Roger Ebert refers to this plot device; in other words, rather than killing his pursuer and making his escape, the villain stays to explain his entire scheme and methodology so that the hero/heroine has a chance to fight back. The killer is also a Master of Disguises and Escapes (They're all quite skilled at this, aren't they? Is there a school or something that teaches this?), and there is a character whose racist and sexist thoughts are pretty repugnant (you just know he's going to die a horrible death, don't you?). Grade: B+ to A-.

Summary: Better and Better
Review: Michael Prescott gets better with every novel he writes. This one is about Tess McCallum, an FBI agent who has been trying to capture a serial killer whose victims indluded Tess' lover. The killer has been silent for a while, but now has resurfaced with the same MO but in Los Angeles instead of Denver. Worse still is the fact that he has acquired a new weapon that will kill thousands if he is not stopped. This page turner is guaranteed to keep readers awake far into the night.
