5.0 out of 5 stars The turning point in the wonderful Sharon McCone series, December 23, 1997

The Mouse (New York) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Wolf in the Shadows (A Sharon Mccone Mystery) (Mass Market Paperback)

Some people prefer the old days when Sharon was a young, eager, and underpaid investigator for All Souls Legal Cooperative. For me, the changes in McCone's character were not only expected, but in this case, they served to strengthen McCone's integrity and self-sufficiency. With her estrangment from the All Souls "family", McCone has to rely more than ever on her own sense and meticulous detecting skills. It's this greater sense of resolve, as well as the breathlessly paced plot, that make this novel one of the best Muller novels ever.

4.0 out of 5 stars Wolf in the Shadows, August 5, 2005

Wannabe Marcia "Practical dreamer" (New Zealand) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Wolf in the Shadows (A Sharon Mccone Mystery) (Mass Market Paperback)

Very well written - with atmospheric descriptions of places the detective goes to. I enjoy the Sharon McCone books - having just recently discovered them - and as a person who does not live in the USA, the descriptions of people and places help bring life in the USA alive for me.

4.0 out of 5 stars The best of her mysteries., February 1, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Wolf in the Shadows (A Sharon Mccone Mystery) (Mass Market Paperback)

Marsha Muller has always struck me as being a formula writer, and her characters never rang true to me. But this book breaks the mold. A great read for those long summer evenings on the porch.
