Customer Reviews

Awesome thriller.

Anyone who like Tami Hoag will love this book, edge of your seat suspense. Thought Jace was never gonna get his life back.

Kill the Messenger was definitely one of my favorites!.

My first try with Tami Hoag, I can honestly say, she has acquired a new fan. The read was easy, definitely held my attention from first page through to the last page. Easy to fall in love with the characters. I truly enjoyed this book, thank you.

Hoag does it again

This is one of the fastest-paced of Hoag's books and is hard to put down.

My first tami hoag book

I loved this book and the characters in it! If this is a sample of tami's books, I will be reading them all!! I really love suspense and this sure had plenty!

A fun and satisfying read

Hoag's style is crisp and direct, providing enough detail to flesh out the scenes and characters but with little fat to get in the way of the plot as it races forward. The book opens with a resourceful, if bedraggled bike messenger who took an end-of-the-day message delivery and came hair close to getting killed (by a person in a big car who we know as Predator) and who also became the prime suspect for the murder of the person who requested the delivery in the first place. After that, you are barrelled through a twisted maze of plots and counter plots and you don't know where you'll end up until you get to the end.Books like this are far better than TV. Have fun with it!

Not her best by far

While I did enjoy "Ransom", I didn't feel that this was one of DS best books. I was happy to see that it wasn't the same old, same old as some of her previous books. I did not, however, like the mystery aspect of the book. I found the middle of the book to be dull and found myself skipping whole paragraphs at times. Mystery/thriller novels are not DS style. I did enjoy Ted and Fernanda's exchanges throughout the book, and Sam was my favorite character.

Danielle Stell Does It Again!

I have been a fan of this writer for a very long time and have enjoyed many of her novels but this one (i think), is my all-time favourite! I started reading it one night and didn't want to put it down...so i didn't, I just continued reading it until it was finished. I know you will love it as much. Give it a try!
