5.0 out of 5 stars Hard to believe this is the author's first., 20 Dec 2005
By Detra Fitch (USA) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
Three women have known violence in their childhood. They come together as roommates at the FBI training academy. Ten year later, their nightmares really begin.

Rowan Smith left the FBI after she was assigned to a case very similar to her own childhood violence. No one really knew she left to preserve her sanity. She began a writing career and had astounding success. In fact, one of her books is being made into a movie in Hollywood. Rowan thought she had left her past behind her at last. Then a dismembered body is found in Colorado. The victim had the same name, occupation, and looks as a character Rowan wrote in one of her novels. This is followed by a second victim, again eerily similar to a character in one of Rowan novels.

Michael Flynn is an ex-cop. John Flynn is a former DEA agent. The two brothers own and operate a security firm. They are hired to protect Rowan. John believes there is more to it all than they currently know. He also has some secrets of his own that he wants no one to learn of. Yet even he will be astounded as the truth comes out. And the only way to reach the truth is for Rowan to revisit the violence in her past, a past that just may kill them both.

***** It is hard to believe that this is Allison Brennan's debut novel. It is fantastic! This title is the first of a trilogy. Each woman from the academy will get her own story told. You will not have to wait a long time between the stories either. The three books come out with only a month between each. (The other two titles will be "The Hunt" and "The Kill".) I could not read fast enough to find out what was going to happen next. Highly recommended reading! *****

1.0 out of 5 stars So drawn out., 1 Feb 2007
By Book Worm (West Midlands, UK) - See all my reviews
This book could have ended 100 pages sooner. It was so monotonous. The story was good but I got bored going over everything time and time again. I don't think I will bother with the other two books as I could read two others in the time it took to read one by this author.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not my cup of tea, 1 Aug 2006
By LeoKA (Cardiff, South Glamorgan.) - See all my reviews
I have always admired writers and the challenge they face to bring their creations to life so, writing a review that does not applaud their efforts is hard.

I read all three books in the series and found books 1 and 2 to be amazingly long winded and repetitive. Book 3 was better but not by much. Initially I felt caught up in the disasterous lives these women had led and their fight to overcome their misfortunes but by page 200, I just wanted the book to end and indeed if not for the repetition, it would have. Maybe the author was trying too hard to create a tense atmosphere within the book and took it too far as the flow of the story became sluggish during the middle. By the time the climax of the book arrived I found I had very little interest in the ending but forced myself to finish the books. I also could not determine what actually made them fall in love. The barriers that have been thrown up to protect themselves didnt, in mind, allow the closeness you would expect if people are in love, until of course they fall into bed.

I am sorry I could not be more positive about this book as some parts were excellently written especially when in the mind of the murderer but unfortunately this does not carry over to the whole book.
