2.0 out of 5 stars First J French book - will probably be my last, July 26, 2007

By	Shelia (Murfreesboro, tn) - See all my reviews

I love mysteries, thrillers, romance novels, all kinds of books. However, this book was just all over the place until the last 1/3 of it. In fact, the only reason I finished it was to justify the time I'd spent reading the first 2/3. I really would not recommend this book unless you just really like this author.

4.0 out of 5 stars Four and a half stars...., January 26, 2007

By	Lauren (Seattle, WA) - See all my reviews

This book was difficult to put down once I got about a quarter of the way through. Up until then, I almost put it aside. It seemed to ask too many questions before I could even decipher exactly what the heroine was trying to figure out. Never thought I'd say this, but there was almost "too much" mystery in the first few chapters.

However, eventually pieces started coming together, and I couldn't stop reading. This is definitely a page turner, and I really liked all of the characters. Normally I like my romance plot line to be a little more front and center, however this book did a great job of making the romance a definite side story, but it was also sweet and believable. Even though we didn't see the characters together as much as I like, I could still believe they'd be happy together.

Lastly, a little quibble...there were a few open ends. I won't delve into all of them for risking ruining the plot for others, but I WILL say that I kept waiting for Bailey to "discover a diary no one wants her to read," as it says on the back of the book. It makes it sound like this is a key development in the plot, but unless I missed something I don't remember ANY diary?!?!

5.0 out of 5 stars Intriging, absorbing mystery!!, October 24, 2006

An island...compelling characters...MYSTERY...this is a "read in one
sitting" novel! When your heart starts pounding, you're into the book
and you don't put it down. Mrs. French writes heart-stopping suspense
novels (two, so far) which are MUST READS. Keep writing, Mrs. French!!
