2.0 out of 5 stars Not the best in the series..., September 5, 2000
By 
"2hoo" (Tulsa, OK United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Apparition Alley (Paperback)
Of all the Delafield books, this was one of the weakest. Too many intersecting stories to really keep up. Had a hard time believing Aimee would be working so hard after the shooting. Worth reading for the sake of keeping up with the series.

3.0 out of 5 stars OK But Not Great, January 19, 1999
By A Customer
This book was an OK book. Perhaps I was expecting more. One of the things that I did like about this book was Kates attitude and her love for being a member of the LAPD. I also the manner in which Ms. Forrest characterized Luke Taggert. I was disappointed by the lack of action in this book. Not being one who reads many mystery/dective novels I can't think of any other authors to compare this book with. Would I read another Katherine Forrest novel.? Yes. I never judge an author on just one book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Kate finds out she's human, August 15, 2001
By 
carlaf "carlaf" (Brooklyn, NY USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Apparition Alley (Paperback)
Kate Delafied is shot and wounded in a "routine" bust. What really blows her mind is when she finds out that the bullet came not from the criminal but from one of her fellow officers, all of whom are loathe to speak to Kate which makes her even more cranky. Then out of the blue comes a request from Luke Taggert, who is accused of having killed a drug dealer in cold blood and he wants Kate as his advocate. Kate is initially unwilling to take the case but boredom and the inconsistencies she finds when she starts investigating keep her going. She is astonished when Taggert is less worried about his own fate and more concerned about the murder of his closeted partner Tony Ferrera, who was more like a brother than a partner to Luke. As Kate works on Taggert's case, she finds herself also looking into Tony's death as well. She finds that Tony made a computer disk of closeted gays that he intended to publish. THis makes the LAPD the prime target. Did one of them kill Tony to keep him quiet? and what of Luke's story. Kate begins to find it has more holes than swiss cheese. As an aside, I found her sparring with psychologist Calla very interesting and Calla's warning to Kate before she releases her to return to "light" duty shakes Kate and we can only hope she will listen. A lot is going in in this book and it is very complex and exciting.
