Elvis Cole and Joe Pike are a great team. Each Crais book gets better and better.

I can’t say much about this book because I might give away spoilers. I’m guessing that people in real life go through much more violence and cruelty. I don’t think I could read that though. This book was so suspenseful that I read it until I finished it at 5:00 am. Robert Crais has become my favorite author. I am recommending this book to friends.

Great action and pace as always. I was pleased the author did not rehash all of the character introductions (including the cat) as fully in this installment, as I was finding those a bit tiresome for readers of the complete series like myself. We’re back to Cole & Pike rather than one or the other, plus more character development for Jon Stone. Can’t say much more without spoilers but if you’ve liked this series you’ll love this one too. If you’re new to the series I’d go back at least a few installments if not to the beginning. They’re all good.

My favorite one so far

I read many of Crais’ Cole/Pike books and usually like them even if Crais spends too much time with the driving details of his characters. It a little like Siri giving driving directions. Nevertheless, my issue with this book is the time sequences going back & forth. I would have preferred a straight time line.

I have read all of the Elvis Cole books. Love them all, but this is probably the best. Cannot recommend it highly enough.

The best book out of all the Joe Pike/Elvis Cole series! Loved it immensely . . didn't want it to end!

From cover to cover. Great read

Never loses your interest...keeps you up all night . . . . Get an early start on this one!!!!

A great book . Very interesting to the end. Great drama!
