Ridley Pearson is a real hit or miss author and this one is a miss. This resembles a plot for a soap opera and not a thriller.The only thrill is when it finally ends and I confess I skimmedthe last 20 or so pages because I just didn't care how Liz gotout of her jam. Boldt is supposed to be madly scrambling to savehis marriage, but he still finds time to be irritated thatDaphne has moved on with his friend, LaMoia. The whole Lou/Lizbit has run its course, and LaMoia was infinitely more interesting before finding domestic bliss. We need a little action in the next book, Ridley!
