Product Description

Scott Finn worked his way out of Boston's toughest neighbourhood to become a rising star in the city's most elite law firm. When the body of Natalie Caldwell, one of his closest colleagues, and former lover, is found floating in Boston harbour - her heart surgically removed from her chest - it appears she is the seventh victim of 'Little Jack', the Jack-the-Ripper-style murderer terrorizing Boston. But police detective Linda Flaherty isn't so sure. With Natalie's death, Finn inherits a coveted, high-profile assignment that could clinch his career: one involving a terrorist train bombing. But as Finn learns more about the circumstances surrounding Natalie's death, the fabric of the life he has created begins to tear. Suddenly he finds himself the prime suspect in her murder. Finn needs to save himself, and the only way is to dig into the secrets of Natalie's life. The case leads Finn and Flaherty from the crime-ridden streets of Charlestown to Boston's courtrooms and morgues, and from the gilded enclaves of the power brokers to the darkest recesses of a serial killer's mind. 'A legal thriller to rival Grisham or Turow' Lee Child

sets a precedent 17 Aug 2006
By Hugh Sutherland VINE™ VOICE
Format:Paperback
I love crime novels and so as a result they make up the majority of my reading list. Consequently I do find that a large number follow a set formula, which can become slightly monotonous. Dark Harbour really breaks that mold, I'm not saying it is devastatingly unique but it is extremely well written and executed.

There are no cliched cliff hangers at the end of each chapter but instead it unfolds itself gradually, creating a steady build of tension that carries you along in it's wake.

I really hope the authors next book is as good if not better.

Modern Thriller 26 July 2006
Format:Hardcover
I thoroughly enjoyed this. It was a fresh modern thriller with all the required twists. If you enjoy these kind of staple thrillers you won't be dissapointed. Great book to pass the time on the journey to work or keep you occupied on the plane.

By J. Mcdonald TOP 500 REVIEWER VINE™ VOICE
Format:Paperback
For a debut novel, this is a very assured piece of writing indeed; as a work of crime fiction there is nothing particularly original in the plot components, but the way in which Hosp combines the various elements of a serial-killer, big city corruption, organised crime and a legal thriller in one twisting plot is highly ambitious and in the main, he pulls it off very well. You will probably guess some of who did what, how and why, but part of the enjoyment lies in seeing just how all the strands pull together in the conclusion. My one criticism - which is just my opinion, you may feel differently - is that the final scenes are rather long and drawn-out before we reach the denouement. Aside from this it is a well-paced, nicely crafted thriller with good and interesting characterisations.
This is the first in a series featuring the character of Boston lawyer Scott Finn; if the other volumes maintain this standard I'll be well pleased; as it is, this is a pretty good stand-alone read.
