Product Description

Susanna Yager, Daily Telegraph

'Deaver is a terrific storyteller, and he takes the reader on a rollercaoster of suspense, violence and mystery . . . Good entertainment'


Review

'Deaver is a terrific storyteller, and he takes the reader on a rollercaoster of suspense, violence and mystery . . . Good entertainment' (Susanna Yager, Daily Telegraph )

'Jeffery Deaver's fiendish new suspense thriller . . . Amazing as it sounds, Deaver makes the intellectual puzzle the most thrilling part of his high-anxiety drama, which twists, turns and leaves us weak' (The New York Times Book Review )

'Principal characters unusually vivid and sympathetic.... Rapidly paced, wholly engrossing tale' (Publisher's Weekly )

'A truly engrossing thriller. Psychological thriller writers do not come much better than Deaver. His cogent plotting, smooth characterisation and (best of all) psychological profiling of his villains is all nonpareil' (The Times Crime Supplement )

4.0 out of 5 stars compulsive reading as always!, 14 Jun 2001
By A Customer
This is the second book of the trilogy with Rune as the main "detective type" character. She's a young girl in New York working for a company that produces tv commercials. Her dream is to become a film maker. There is a bomb explosion in an adult film theater and Rune has the idea of making a film about the bombing and an actress involved in the adult cinema.

As always Rune is a very curious person and puts herself in danger in order to get what she's looking for. The story is very interesting and very believable. The first book presented the character a bit weak and you weren't so attached as you would be with Rhymes/Sachs, but this is so much better. The book gives a lot of info about bombs. You get the usual twists but the last ones (even on the last two pages) are so surprising!

Easy reading with loads of suspence. Deaver is great and I am looking forward to read the next Rune book!

5.0 out of 5 stars Poignant, 27 Jun 2004
This book is up to Jeffrey Deaver's usual high standards, but with a depth of poignancy I found quite touching. The characters are so real, I dreamt about them for days. If you haven't read this, I strongly recomend that you do. Not only does it open your eyes, but it makes you look at the Blue Movies senario with a different outlook.

3.0 out of 5 stars Light-weight but surprisingly enjoyable, 13 Jun 2001
By A Customer
I must admit that the book didn't start of very well with rather stilted dialogue and rather obvious hooks. But just a couple of chapters into the book the characters seemed to take off. It was like the author just overcame some sort of threshold and then ran with the plot. It is not the best of his books but is charming in a quirky kinda way.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hooked by Rune
This is the second Rune novel. I was quite impressed with the first one, but this second one literally blew me away!

Rune is an absolutely great character. Read more
