page turner

Dixie Flannigan thinks she has it all, job she loves to do, great family and a man she thinks she can have a long relationship with; that is until Lawrence Coombs enters her life and turns it upside down. He beats her up when she tries to bring him in when he didn't show up for court, he then beats the crime he was charged with which enrages the vitims. A group of 'aveneging angels' take over where the courts fail and give him a piece of his own medicine. But they don't stop with Coombs and they move on to others who were let off making Dixie wonder if the ADA and her friend Brenda is involved with the street justice being dished out. In the meantime she is babysitting the daughter of an actress who has been getting threatening letters in the mail. As she has her hands full with work the man in her life Parker Dann, wants her to find a job with less risk and will have her home at a regular time. I do agree it was a bit predicable, but it was hard to put down some nights and go to sleep. I'm looking forward to read the next book in the series and hopefully there will be more to come.

As riveting as Bitch Factor, can't wait for the next book !

Dixie has what every woman wants, wit, looks, and the ability to fight her way out of any situation she can't outsmart. Each scene keeps you reading. Never a dull moment in this action packed, kick-butt, thriller. I highly recomend this book to anyone tired of predictable plots. Inovative and smart writing. Dixie represents women today, or what they dream of being!

Much better than the first

Chris Rogers' wrting style is fresh and interesting. I enjoyed her first book, but liked this one so much more. I couldn't put it down. Liked her use of many new characters. Her development of Dixie's relationship with her "boyfriend" - I don't want to give anything away - was very good. Can't wait to see where she takes the two of them in her next book. Overall, very entertaining and a good read.

Another winner by Rogers

Professional bounty hunter Dixie Flanagan usually does not care whether her "skip" did the crime or not, but her latest returnee, Lawrence Coombs is so creepily evil she wants him executed. To her dismay and that of several of Coombs' victims, Lawrence's trial ends with a not guilty verdict. While Dixie works as a bodyguard for a teenager, an assailant abducts Coombs, giving the sadist as brutal of a beating as he gave to his victims. Though Dixie firmly feels that Coombs got what he deserved, she condemns the action. Soon other individuals accused of abuse but freed begin to vanish. Dixie believes that no one, regardless of their motives, is above the law. She thinks she knows who is behind the attacks and places herself in danger to put a halt to them. Chris Rogers avoids the sophomore slump as RAGE FACTOR, her second Flanagan novel (see BITCH FACTOR), is a brilliant, complex who-done-it. The masterful story line includes several sub-plots that cleverly blend into one fabulous tale. The witty Dixie remains an interesting character, who will garner much reader attention as they will desire the Rogers Factor in more novels soon. Harriet Klausner
