3.0 out of 5 stars UNDER SUSPICION - LACKING IN SUSPENSE. 31 May 2004
By Ap Nj Dorrall
Format:Mass Market Paperback
IT'S THE NIGHT OF TRIUMPH FOR MUSEUM CURATOR ANNA LUNDGREN, THE OPENING OF HER FIRST EXHIBITION.BUT THE ACCLAIM QUICKLY ENDS WHEN A GUARD IS MURDERED IN THE THEFT OF SUPPOSEDLY CURSED JADE DAGGER.SUSPICIAON FALLS ON ANNA.SHE SETS ABOUT PROVING HER INNOCENCE WITH THE HELP OF STREET SAVVY DETECTIVE GIL GARCIA. HIS INSTINCT'S TELL HIM SHE'S INNOCENT.IF HE'S WRONG HIS CAREER COULD BE ON THE LINE BUT IF HE'S RIGHT THEN SOMEONE IS PLAYNIG SINISTER GAMES AND ANNA MAY BE THE NEXT ONE TO DIE.
THIS IS NOT ONE OF RACHEL LEE'S BEST BOOKS.
THE STORY IS NOT THAT CONVINCING AND IT LACKS A GREAT DEAL OF SUSPENSE THAT YOU WOULD ASSOCIATE WITH HER NOVELS.
THE ONLY BRIGHT PART IN THIS BOOK IS DETECTIVE CLARENCE TEBBINS.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not a keeper. 31 Oct 2001
By Patti - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
I bought this book on impulse as I was leaving a bookstore since I've often been recommended her books by Amazon. I have regretted that impulse ever since. I hated the story and the romance was nonexistent. What actually drew these people together? Their attraction to each other is barely mentioned, yet we're supposed to believe he would risk his job by getting involved with her? I don't think so. Also, I thought the killer would be someone shocking, but (and don't read this if you're going to make the mistake of buying this book) it was just some part-time student that she didn't even know. Big deal. The whole story was weird. I like having historical facts, but there was just too much detail behind the dagger. I rarely will not finish a book, but I found myself skipping pages and finally just read the last page. Anyone want a free book? If not, this one is going in the trash!! I'll be hard pressed to buy another Rachel Lee book, even if it gets 5 stars.

4.0 out of 5 stars Mystery with a Touch of Romance 21 Oct 2001
By Sheri Melnick - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Museum curator Anna Lundgren is excited about the new Mayan exhibit-she is hoping that the newest acquisition will be a success. However, she becomes a little disturbed when a local reporter, Reed Howell, dredges up Pocal's Curse, a curse on the exhibited jade dagger discovered at an ancient burial site. Howell also suggests that the curse could follow Anna, as her father was killed in an earthquake sixteen years ago near the burial site where he was working.

With the murder of museum security guard Eddy Malacek and the theft of the jade dagger, suspicion falls on Anna. Clarence Tebbins, Tampa P.D., and Gil Garcia, St. Pete P.D., begin working the investigation. As clues consistently point to Anna, she becomes the prime suspect. Even when Gil discovers someone running away from Anna's home, he and Tebbins believe that she may be working with an accomplice. Their continued suspicion of Anna sometimes borders on the absurd, especially when she suffers a knife wound after being attacked.

The continuing mystery surrounding the disappearance of the dagger, heavily guarded by a top-notch security system, adds another element to this read. And the appearance of Nancy, Anna's identical twin, is especially appealing when the two agree to switch identities in an effort to unbalance the murderer and thief. The reader is left with the ultimate question-can the killer be found before he decides to end the curse in the only way he knows how, by extracting the beating heart of the descendants of the one who initiated the curse, a.k.a. Nancy and Anna Lundgren?

Ancient artifacts, a mysterious museum theft, and spooky curses definitely add to the allure of this novel. Never knowing where the killer will turn up next, the reader is kept glued to the spine tingling pages. While the mystery is more than adequate, the romance between Gil and Anna is rather short-changed considering that this novel is billed as a romance. Readers wanting the scales tipped in favor of mystery over romance will not be disappointed.

1.0 out of 5 stars No Romance 20 Oct 2001
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
I generally like Rachel Lee's suspense-romance stories. This one, however, was sadly lacking in romance. There was hardly any interaction between the main characters. They never developed a relationship. The mystery was good but there was no time spent developing a love story between the cop and the suspect. I was very disappointed.
