I have read The Cove, The Maze, and The Target. I have really enjoyed all of them. I couldn't put The Target down. I rarely read books more than once but found myself reading this book 3 times. The book gave me chills. I saw Ms. Coulter's new book "The Edge" the other day and can't wait to read it. I find her stories amazing. For me I see them as not typical romance novels. That is why I probably enjoy them so much. Keep up the good work Ms. Coulter and I can't wait to read The Edge.

I have read 20 or so, C. Coulter novels and The Target was a study in frustration and disappointment for me. The dialogue was trite and seemed fragmented and disjointed. Sometimes I wasn't even sure who was speaking or what they were talking about. The storyline started out good but got lost in unbelievable situations. The characters were likeable but lacked depth and history. I was very sorry I spent 18.00 on this book and will read several critical reviews before I buy another contemporary suspense novel by Coulter. The Cove and The Maze were much better. She should stick to historical romance-she's much better at it.

This sensitive window into how a kidnapped 6 year old girl who has been beaten and raped, might respond to the loving protection and righteous indignation of safe adults is well written. Within the first few pages I had come to appreciate the depth of understanding that the author shows for a violated child and the horrified adults around her. She successfully portrays a prominent judge, suffering as a result of a recent violent incident in his courtroom, finding a way to access and allay the abused child's fears. He teaches her that she is strong, capable, is able to save herself, and is not at fault for what has happened to her. In doing so, he heals himself and lets the child help him through his own nightmares.
This is another successful FBI novel, and although it leaves Sherlock and Savich on the periphery of the plot, they are not missed. The main characters take centre stage and hold the novel through to a satisfying and believeable conclusion. I hope to see more of the Judge and Molly.

I'm more of a fan of historical fiction like 'The Reader' or 'The Triumph and the Glory' than a Catherine Coulter type, but the plugs for the book caught my attention, the premise promised a suspenseful book and Coulter delivered big time. The novel is a real page-turner, the only flaw is a certain lack of originality.

I Loved this book. I read it in one day and was disappointed that it had to end. The relationship between Ramsey and Emma made my heart pound. This is truly one of Ms. Coulter's better books.

I have read her many other books, The Cove and The Maze. This one is the best one yet. I read it in one day. I could'nt put it down. Ramsey and Emmas relationship made my heart pound. This one is a keeper. I was sorry that it had to end

This book was really a dissapointment to me. The characters were unbeleivable, the plot was predictable (yes I figured it out early on) and the romance between the judge and molly fizzled (I found myself skipping over the love scenes) I was impatient to finish this book, very syrupy, the ending was an even bigger dissapointment, it seemed like the author got tired of writing, the whole thing seemed veeeeery drawn out until the last 20 pages. Then everything was wrapped up amazingly fast! Don't waste your money, if you must read this borrow from a friend or go to the library

So bad I had to keep putting it down!!
First of all, if this is one of Catherine Coulter's "best" novels, it will be the only one I ever read. I found the character, Ramsey, to be especially unbelievable. Read more

Dull . . .
This will be the first and only Coultier novel I read. I was anticipating great suspense and romance rolled into one. The suspense was so-so, a bit on the predictable. Read more
