Abby Sinclair deals in risk assessment--but it's lives, not fortunes, that are at stake. The Los Angeles investigator goes undercover to figure out whether a client's stalker is simply an overzealous fan or a dangerous psychopath. She's learned the hard way that the difference isn't always apparent until it's too late. In Raymond Hickle's case, however, Abby has no doubts. The awkward loner's fixation with gorgeous news anchor Kris Barwood has progressed from creepy to murderous. So Abby befriends Hickle, trying to gauge when and how he'll strike. Yet her target is as wily as he is unhinged, and Abby has unwittingly made herself a madman's latest obsession. With her reputation and life on the line, Abby races to save Kris before Hickle eliminates them both. New York Times best-selling author Michael Prescott takes readers on an adrenaline-pumping thrill ride packed with ingenious twists and gut- churning suspense.… (more)

I recently discovered Michael Prescott. I couldn't get past the 1st 50 pages of his first book, Comes the Dark, but I had this one, too, so I gave it a go. Much better. Abby Sinclair works for security companies and specializes in going under cover to catch stalkers. The plot has lots of satisfying twists and turns and only a few leaps of credibility. Prescott has a third book out and I'll likely give it a shot. ( )

This is the second Michael Prescott book I've read, and this author can surely write good action scenes and create suspense. I have only a few minor criticisms of this thriller, which introduces us to Abby Sinclair. I liked the angle of having her use psychology to get next to the perp. She's an interesting protagonist. The characterizations were decent enough. Nice twisty plot which satisfied this reader. Will look forward to the next books in this series. ( )

The Shadow Hunter by Michael Prescott has a good premise, and the characters have a lot of potential. However, the plot hinged on coincidences and didn't ring true to me. Too bad. ( )
