A Fun, Engrossing Read

Because I live in Miami, I particularly enjoyed the scenes that played out around the city. More than that, I appreciated the humor and irony injected into a serious plotline. The main character, Tom Hudson, is hell-bent on finding his wife's murderer. He has friends in high places in the police department, and they are doing their best, but Tom is on the case. In acknowledging his overzealousness in his pursuit, Tom self-analyzes his actions thus: A civilian had broken into the police computer using the Chief's password, stolen information, used it to hunt down a suspected killer, and nearly executed an innocent-until-proven-guilty suspect in front of four police officers who didn't, and wouldn't, lift a finger to try to stop it. Even in Miami, this was considered over-the-top. Way, way over-the-top.(Dave Barry couldn't have said it better!)Amid all this, a crazed group of women is exacting justice on its' own by killing released criminals in imaginative ways, but the group remains elusive to the police. The two scenarios come together in a clever way, and though readers know the identity of each of the women in the group, we can't wait to see how they get caught! The author's extensive computer knowledge is well-adapted and believable in this respect, and though there isn't any steamy sex, there is a romantic courtship that has us rooting for the prospective lovers for all the right reasons. All in all, a fun, engrossing read!

A new Mystery reader

First I have to admit that while I am a big history and intelligence novel reader this is my first real mystery read in any number of years. I thought it was first class. The powerful, modern women as main characters hit me as new but in keeping with todays world.The technology backdroup was not intrusive enough to confuse but rather moved the story along. The only draw back( I guess ) was the absence of a hot sex scene. All in a very solid novel that more than held this new mystery readers attention.

a seriously fun book

This is one of those books that is hard to put down once you start reading it. The intrigue is first rate. The action is very original. Its fast and exciting. And if you happen to know Miami neighborhoods, it's especially rewarding. This is the best book I have read since Grisham's "The Brethren."
