What a thriller! Even though I know Deaver twists things in unexpected ways, I was still surprised at one of the twists in this action-packed adventure. I even forgot to be sad that it wasn't a Lincoln Rhyme story (but I'm ready for a new one....please!). ( )

Really liked this, Brynn McKenzie and killer trade trickster events when he chases her and other woman into the deep woods to kill them. Trickster reference was super ( )

Enjoyed reading someone new(for me). I usually read all James Patterson and Dean Koontz, J.D.Robb kind of murder mystery books. This was refreshing and still thumb turning suspence. Definately a big thumbs up! I can't read enough of these!!! ( )

"The Bodies Left Behind" is a decent book, as long as you know what you're getting into. This is NOT a mystery, but instead you get a straight-forward chase novel, where we have the main character being relentlessly hunted down by the bad guys. It reminded me of the Dead Koontz novel "Intensity."

What bothers me is stuff like the cop inexplicably forgetting her cell phone when going into the house from which a 911 call was made. Had she not left the phone in the car, this would have been a MUCH shorter story, since she would have simply called for backup.

There are some clever cat-and-mouse situations, with Brynn trying to stay ahead of her stalkers... which are your standard hit men in these sort of stories.

It's a vanilla plot that seems made for a translation to the big screen. ( )

starts strong, slow finish ( )
