A wild ride...
1 April 2002
Format:Mass Market Paperback
This is the first book by Alan Jacobson I have read - it was a good book and I am looking forward to reading his first book.
THE HUNTED begins with Lauren Chambers upset about her husband's late return from a weekend with his frat buddies. She goes to the police after 48 hours only to find that they have other more high profile cases to focus in on. She is pursuaded to go to a Neighborhood Watch meeting to rally the community to help her. During the meeting she meets a private detective who volunteers to help her.
Meanwhile, her husband turns up on the East coast - shot in the leg and he has amnesia. He cannot remember a thing about his past...and the FBI is looking for him.
This provides the foundation for a suspenseful book that reads like a roller coaster - never knowing what is next. It twists and turns just when you think you know what is going on. The only reason I gave it four out of five stars is that there are a couple of story items that didn't seem possible. A great book nonetheless - I would recommend it to others.

The Hunted
20 Feb 2001
Format:Hardcover
See story summary above.
I have to agree that this is definitely a page turner. The cat and mouse thrills are here, as is the suspense. When I started reading the book I was thinking of comparing it to Baldacci. The further I got into it the more I decided I was wrong. Though the action is exciting, it's a little far fetched. Some of the scenes actually made me stop reading and say to myself, "Yea, right". The entertainment value is there if you can swallow some of the action scenes. I think with each novel, Alan Jacobson's writing improves.
Recommended.

The Hunted is a definite read!
28 Feb 2001
Format:Hardcover
I thought Jacobson's first book False Accusations was a powerful read, with its engaging characters and major twists. But he topped it with The Hunted, which had me wondering what was going to happen till the very last page. The details and research are impresive! I felt like I had an inside tour of several seceret goverment agencies. Can't wait till Jacobson's next book comes out. In the meantime, The Hunted is a definite read!
