More of a three and a half stars book, but not quite four, July 14 2006
By A. Rowley - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Call After Midnight & Under The Knife: Call After Midnight\Under The Knife (Paperback)
You must first know that these novels have been miscategorized. The book jacket claims that it is both romance and a thriller. The two books under one cover are neither. They are closer to the romantic suspense genre, but do not expect much from the romance angle of the story. Unfortunately, the author never portrayed a strong emotional connection between the characters other than the sexual attraction to one another. Perhaps because the story lines were condensed down to fit the two books together, but I feel that getting the reader to connect with the characters is vital to a successful novel. Those stories that touch our soles or cause us to shed a tear, even to laugh, or feel the familiarity are the books that stay with us long after the last page has been read. These books were adequate, but I would be interested in reading one of this authors full novels to see if any of them have what it takes to be a success.
Here are a few descriptions of the books as described from the back of the jacket.
CALL AFTER MIDNIGHT
Newlywed Sarh Fontaine has just received the news that every wife fears? her husband of two months has died abroad in a hotel fire. Yet convinced he's still alive, Sarah forges an alliance with Nick O'Hara from the U.S. State Department that has the two of them crisscrossing Europe on a desperate search for signs of life. As Sarah and Nick become quarry in the secret world of international espionage, they must risk everything for answers that may prove fatal.
UNDER THE KNIFE
For attorney David Ransom, it begins as an open-and-shut case: malpractice. Then Dr. Kate Chesne storms into his office, daring him to seek out the truth- that she's being framed. When another patient turns up dead, David starts to believe her. Somewhere in the Honolulu hospital, a killer walks freely. Now David finds himself asking the same questions Kate is desperate to have answered.

Is it worth buying?
If you are looking for a light read to pass the time, than this duo of books isn't bad for the price.

Couldn't Finish, Jan 11 2007
By A. Westbrook - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Call After Midnight & Under The Knife: Call After Midnight\Under The Knife (Paperback)
These books must have been early-Gerritsen. They were nothing like her latest stories which have gripping plots and interesting people. These two seemed rather childish by comparison and I didn't finish either of them.
