Really enjoyed this NR standalone novel. I think it's some of her best work in ages, and the story was totally engrossing. She also writes wonderful characters, and the H&H of this one were particularly well drawn.The only thing that kept me from giving it 5 stars was the headhopping. When I have to...

Highly enjoyable. I listened to this in the car over a week or so, and I was impressed by the narrator's ability to convey each character with a different voice. Now I want to read it.I kind of wish the testimony and righteous smack-down of the bad guys had played a bigger part, after all the prep i...

Another NR winner for me. Though I haven't read a real book in a while, this one truly felt like 'it's like riding a bicycle' book.

Recently, NR has been a bit hit-and-miss for me - I very much disliked her Bridal Quartett; and the Inn trilogy didn't really start off very well for me either. Then I bought `The Witness' and I must say I liked it mostly. I enjoyed the storyline; I liked the main characters. The way the hero was pe...
