Nancy Kopp really knows her stuff. This thriller kept me guessing till the end. A comatose patient in a hospital is mysteriously raped and impregnated and a bulldog female attorney will stop at nothing to find the rapist. Fast-paced page turner. Great dialogue and memorable characters. I hated for the story to end. How about a sequel, Nancy?

I purchased this book as a high school independant reading project. I was very impressed and loved the way Kopp led on her readers to let them believe that someone completely wrong committed the crime. I admit, the idea of the situation was disgusting, but it was a great book to read.

This was my second book of Nancy Kopp. This one was very good. I did not even want to turn on the T.V. the night I started this. You think you have the guilty person all figuered out, and then you learn how wrong you were. I will now be looking forward to any book that has Nancy Kopp on the cover.

Great book! Better than Grisham's recent ones. A real page-turner

This is Ms. Kopp's best work yet...I have enjoyed all three of her books, but this one had me on the edge of my seat from the first chapter. I laughed and cried...my ONLY complaint it that it was over too soon!!

Nancy gets better with each book. Penguin should seriously consider reprinting "Acts & Omissions". All my friends are borrowing my copy.

Ms. Kopp has a great writing style, which makes it easy to forget the time and keep flipping the pages. There is suspense until the very end. She writes convincingly about human emotions.

Just finished Absent Witness and was as impressed with this one as I was with her other two. Like Acts and Omissions and With Intent to Kill, Absent Witness kept my interest and I found it hard to put it down. Keep them coming!!

Kept my interest from the very beginning -- Only problem was that I wanted to read all night & not put it down. Love your style -- Kept me in suspense -- couldn't guess the ending. (The person from Virginia must have been reading someone elses book! )

When on our recent cruise, I found myself in the rare position of
having nothing to read (in that I had finished the other book I had
brought) . . . so I ventured to the ship's library and came across
a paperback that looked interesting from a cursory review of the
jacket: ABSENT WITNESS by Nancy Kopp.

Billed as a "legal thriller," it's a novel about a woman who is in a
coma after a car accident . . . when she becomes impregnated
while in the hospital, the search begins for the culprit.

Many twists and turns later, I still found myself interested in
the outcome right up until the satisfying conclusion . . . in addition,
there's a romantic subplot that added to my enjoyment.

I'll also make it a point to read other books by the author, though
a quick check seems to indicate that for some reason she hasn't
written anything after 2003 . . . too bad!
