Product Description

Review

'Today's best action heroine is back with a bang. Cross your fingers and toes that she survives for future adventures - you'll definitely want her to.' LEE CHILD'If you don't like ZoA" Sharp there's something seriously wrong with you. Go live in a cave and get the hell out of my gene pool'STUART MACBRIDE

Ken Bruen

'Charlie Fox is fast becoming the must-read heroine of mystery...
The narrative moves like a banshee on speed...with a marvellous twist that
I never saw coming... This is mystery on the grand scale and yet so simply
written that you nearly miss how cleverly it is constructed'

3.0 out of 5 stars It has its moments... 31 July 2011
Format:Paperback
My first book about Charlie. I enjoyed most of it but not enough to go and seek out the others in the series. I found the character of Simone, the mother, poorly drawn. Despite what had happened to her in the previous couple of days, would she have rerally wandered off and taken her eye off Ella at the Zoo? Also the sudden death of a central character was a bit odd. Lastly, the granny is shown as loving in the cookie making scene yet within a couple of days her character has totally changed- not believable.

3.0 out of 5 stars Second Shot 9 Nov 2008
By molko VINE™ VOICE
Format:Paperback
I picked up this book on a whim at my local bookshop one day at lunch and have only just gotten around to reading it. It's my first Zoe Sharp book and although I don't think it will be my last, I dont think I'll be rushing out to buy another any time soon.
'Second Shot' follows the story of Charlie Fox who is a hired bodyguard assigned to be sent overseas to America to help protect Simone Kerse and her 4 year old daughter, Ella. Simone and her daughter have recently won the lottery and are now multi millionnaires, Simone, fearing for both hers, and her daughters safety travel to America to elude Ella's father and hopefully hunt down Simone's long lost father.
Theres a lot of action and the writing is good along with the pace, however, the only downside is that it all seems a bit far fetched. It's hard to believe and therefor the quality suffers.
Worth the read for some quick thrills but theres nothing new here.

3.0 out of 5 stars Going downhill fast 29 Sep 2008
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I have enjoyed the Charlie Fox sequence of novels since they first came out but I am becoming disheartened by the formulaic nature now Charlie is a bodyguard. I am particularly concerned that all she cares about is what Sean thinks of her. Where is the Charlie of the earlier novels? She may have had her problems but she could deal with things without Sean saving the day every time with Charlie lying in a crumpled heap. I don't find the addition of lots of hardware (guns) an attraction, and this also means that the books are increasingly set in the USA. I'd rather motorbikes in the UK any day. Unfortunately as Second Shot ended with Sean's firm setting up an American branch this seems increasingly unlikely.
