5.0 out of 5 stars Will the Real Kay Hooper Please Stand Up?, October 7, 2000

By	"paula_k_98" (Muskogee, OK USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Hiding in the Shadows (Shadows Trilogy) (Mass Market Paperback)

Will the real Kay Hooper please stand up? I have read just about every book this woman has written--yet, her last two books are so different, they have just blown me away! Ms. Hooper has outdone herself and brought her writing to a whole new dimension that I, for one, find fascinating beyond belief.

Hiding in the Shadows is Ms. Hooper's second installment of the Shadows' books. Once again, we see Noah Bishop, the FBI profiler, in a story that deals with the unknown. He has come to help his good friend, Noah MacGregor, look for Dinah Leighton. Dinah is an investigating reporter who is hot on the trail of something so big that she is not about to reveal anything until she has all the facts. Then suddenly she disappears without a trace. Mixed into this situation is Faith Parker, a friend of Dinah whom no one seems to know anything about. Faith is lying in the hospital in a deep coma of which she will not awaken from according to the medical experts. Dinah disappears and Faith awakens. Coincidence?

I thought Stealing Shadows, the first book in this series was the best I've read this year. Hiding in the Shadows, while not as intense as the first, tells a fascinating story of how souls and lives become tangled together. It is in its own rights, a great book with characters you find yourself caring about. I, for one, am eagerly anticipating the final book in this series. Hopefully, Noah's story will finally be revealed. If not, Ms. Hooper better be planning some more books in this series.

Kay Hooper, wherever you are, please continue this style of writing. Your last two books have earned a spot on the same shelf with J. D. Robb's books for being new and inventive with a story line and characters that I intend to follow as long as you keep writing.

5.0 out of 5 stars Suspense Thriller with a Bone Chilling Ending, September 22, 2003

By	Vesta Irene (the Pacific Northwest) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Hiding in the Shadows (Shadows Trilogy) (Mass Market Paperback)

When Faith comes out of the coma she has no memory of the accident that almost killed her, or of anything else. Her mind is a blank, but then she starts getting memories of her reporter friend Faith. She dreams of a man she doesn't know and has vision of violence all too real. She teams up with Dinah's boyfriend Kane and with FBI agent Noah Bishop and they try to solve the riddle of Faith's dreams before it's too late.

This five star psychic thriller has an ending that'll keep you thinking for weeks. I never would've or could've guessed it. It chilled me to the bone. Kay Hooper has shed her romantic past. She is a thriller writer now.

Reviewed by Vesta Irene, Number One fan of Ken Douglas, writer of Dead Ringer, Desperation Moon & Running Scared. One of the advantages of being married to a writer is that there are plenty of good books around the house. It's turned me into quite a reader of mysteries and thrillers. In addition to Ken's books you might also want to check out Blood Dreams & Sleeping with Fear, two other fine thrillers by Kay Hooper.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Mystery Full Of Murder, Mayhem & Blackmail!, October 6, 2000

By	Brad Stonecipher (FRESNO/CLOVIS CA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Hiding in the Shadows (Shadows Trilogy) (Mass Market Paperback)

"Hiding In The Shadows" is the second "Shadows" novel by Kay Hooper, the first being "Stealing Shadows." I felt that "Hiding In The Shadows" was a wonderful read. I finished this novel in two days. The one thing that I love the most about the Shadow series is the psychic and paranormal activity that the author uses in helping to solve the crimes. "Hiding In The Shadows" was a blend of mystery, psychic abilities, and kidnapping. Faith Parker wakes up in a coma and wonders how she got there. She later finds out that she was drugged in her drink and she drove home and crashed. She has lost her memory totally. SHE HAS AMNESIA! She later finds out that Dinah Leighton, her only friend was the only one who visited her in the hospital. When Faith gets out of the hospital, she finds out that Dinah has been kidnapped. Faith must do anything she can do to try and find her only friend and get her own memory back before her old life catches up with her and eventually kills her. The reason why I gave this novel four out of five stars was because I LIKED STEALING SHADOWS better. "Stealing Shadows, "Hiding In The Shadows," and "Out of The Shadows" (coming October 31st) are all wonderful mysteries!
