Customer Reviews

Loved It!!!!

I am a new fan of Jay Bonansinga's work and I have been reading whatever I can get my hands on that he has written. Very well done, action packed and intense....just the way I like 'em!

Finding a new author is always a pleasure

Finding a new and decent author is always a real pleasure. I read Frozen and wasnt too impressed but could see real potential. As a result I also bought Twisted and was not disappointed. This author improves with each book in this series. I like "Grove" and wish that just a touch more of his latent "supernatural" talents could be brought out. A decent read especially on a dark and stormy night.

Terrific thriller

Jay manages to make hurricanes characters in this book. His storm action will chill anyone who's lived through one. And if you've ever been to the Big Easy you know he loves the town. TWISTED reads like an An Lee movie with one gut-wrenching, intensely visual shot after another. Don't be surprised if you find yourself ducking storm-tossed debris--it's that good. If you haven't read Frozen I'd suggest you start with that superb book before moving to Twisted. It will help set the stage and give you better insight into Dr. Grove and the other main characters. Though, if you are anything like me you'll like all of Jay's books.

fast-paced action thriller

Professor Moses De Lourde tries to survive a storm in New Orleans when he hears a clicking noise. He looks outside his window to see a man running away from his home. He leaves his home and while outside calls his friend FBI Forensic Profiler Ulysses Grove, but the call is somehow interrupted. Later a mortified Agent Grove learns that his pal is dead. At the funeral Ulysses is reunited with reporter Maura County, who he previously worked with to apprehend the Sun City serial killer. After the murderer was caught, an exorcism was performed on the FBI Special Agent; the video caught something leaving Ulysses' body. He notices on Moses' body that some parts including the eyes are missing; the same thing that happened to two other people he knows during the eye of the hurricane. He wonders if something is after him using his friends as dead bait. Ulysses decides to confront his adversary by being in New Orleans during the eye of a Katrina like intensity named Hurricane Fiona. Jay Bonansinga writes an action thriller that starts at light speed and soars even faster until the climatic final hurricane. The reader is unsure where the supernatural or the more mundane is at work as the story line lives up to its title with plenty of twists. Though the action is top rate, the key characters, especially Ulysses, are fully developed and believable. Fans will want to join Mr. Bonansinga in the eye of the storm from the distance of their armchairs. Harriet Klausner
