Product Description

Review

PJ Tracy is about to become a household name (Daily Mirror )


Product Description

It should have been a simple journey – a drive from Minneapolis to Green Bay, Wisconsin. But a couple of unplanned detours lead Grace MacBride, Annie Belinsky and police Deputy Sharon Mueller deep in the northern woods, far from civilization and a mobile phone signal. Then the car breaks down. The nervous search for a landline and a mechanic leads the women to Four Corners, a sleepy crossroads town. And place they soon wish they’d never stumbled on - because something terrible happened in Four Corners... Filled with the same crackling dialogue, pace and rich vivid characters as Want to Play? and Live Bait, Dead Run firmly establishes PJ Tracy as one of the most exciting thriller writers in the world.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent but no 'want to play', 20 Jul 2005
This review is from: Dead Run (Hardcover)
Having read all three books of the series I felt this was a little change of pace from the other two books in that it shifted away from the usual 'who done it'.

In it's own right it is an excellent book and certainly kept me turning the pages to the end and as always the dialogue between the main characters is a joy.

However after you have read 'want to play' you always start a PJ tracy book looking for the same magic and can't help feeling disappointed when it falls slightly short.

3.0 out of 5 stars Tracy flatters to deceive, 31 May 2005
By A Customer
This review is from: Dead Run (Hardcover)
Like many I eagerly anticipated the release of this 'third in the series of five' books based around the Monkeewrench crew. I have to be honest and say that I was left a little disappointed.

Whilst the story starts well and reintroduces all characters from the first book (Want to Play), it falls down in the middle, becoming slightly unbelievable and far-fetched. The ending too is something of an anti-climax. I was left with many unanswered questions and a feeling that the story had been wrapped up far too quickly. On the positive side it is held together by intelligent prose and the interaction of the characters, but the overall story is sadly lacking.

This is a good book in its own right, but for those that have become addicted to the suspense and mystery created in the first novel (and to a lesser extent, the second novel) it's not quite there.

An enjoyable read, but not a patch on Want to Play.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of Her Best, 10 Mar 2006
By L. Hughes (Basingstoke, Hampshire) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is one of those books that you cant wait to turn over the page to see what happens next, with a little twist in the tail at the end.

I love this book from beginning, middle to the end and would highly recommend it to anyone who like their thiller/suspense novels.
