4.0 out of 5 stars GRIPPING AND SUSPENSEFUL, September 23, 2000

This review is from: Silent Snow (Paperback)

Top investigative reporter, Rick Beanblossom has it all...a great job, a wonderful wife and a brand new baby boy.

During a savage blizzard, and on the anniversary of the Lindbergh kidnapping his life will change.

Someone has kidnapped Rick's son, and to find him he must retrace the original crime of the Lindbergh kidnapping, and come full circle in the present day to bring his son back alive.

"Silent Snow" is an original thriller, blending historical fact with amazing suspense, that will leave readers breathless. The pacing is fast and the plot is chilling and surprising.

Steve Thayer, bestselling author of "the Weatherman" has taken a chance on creating a different type of suspense novel and he has succeeded.

Readers looking for an intelligent thriller that will keep them turning the pages should enjoy this!

5.0 out of 5 stars Wow...read it cover to cover., October 18, 1999

This review is from: Silent Snow (Hardcover)

Most enjoyable book I've read in the past couple of years. Hats off to Steve Thayer...I read it from cover to cover. The complete horror of having their baby snatched from his crib could have been described with a bit more intensity, but this cast of characters kept me turning the pages. Can't wait for the next book. The hair on the back of my neck stood up as I drove by the St. Paul Cathedral on my way to work this morning...I may have to take a different route tomorrow.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great historical thriller, unique, great storyteller, December 29, 1999

This review is from: Silent Snow (Hardcover)

Thayer weaves the parallel storylines of the Lindbergh kindnappings with the Beanblossom plot well, with the period-setting of old St. Paul enhancing the quality of a good old mystery. Through it all, St. Paul is shrouded in the protective (although spooky) shadow of St. Paul's Cathedral, the central heart of the plot. Unlike some other readers, I did not guess the culprit until Thayer threw in some blatant clues, giving the reader a terrfied omniscience as the characters put the pieces together. This is clever and well-written. I only wish he would have gotten more in depth with the characters of Rick and Andrea--I felt like I knew Grover and Esther better.
