Review
"Readers will enjoy the first War Games with its paranormal battlefront. Vicki Hinze is a brilliant suspense writer." —Harriet Klausner, MidwestBookReview.com
Product Description
Dr. Morgan Cabot—the intuitive psychologist head of a new Secret Assignment Security Specialist corps—moves her unit front and center to combat the latest attack by terrorist and black market intelligence broker Thomas Kunz in this latest captivating thriller. Kunz's target is United States Air Force Captain Jackson Stern, or so Morgan thinks. Could it also be Bruce Stern, Jackson’s brother who was recently arrested for murdering his wife Laura? Double-crossing, misinformation, and astonishing plot twists pile up as Morgan tries to determine if Jackson is on the level or working for Thomas, whether Bruce is a murderer or a victim, and exactly what Laura has to do with all of this.

This review is from: Kill Zone (Mass Market Paperback)
Vicki has given us another rocket-paced military suspense in her War Games series. The first to introduce the concept of the diabolical Thomas Kunz--a terrorist and black marketeer bent on taking over the world by infiltrating the West's intelligence agencies with double agents--was BODY DOUBLE, followed by DOUBLE DARE, DOUBLE VISION and now KILL ZONE. The difference with Kunz' doubles is that they look and sound like the original agents but are actually people who have been mentally, physically and surgically altered to follow his orders and steal top-secret government information for him. This time Kuntz targets a special abilities team led by psychologist Morgan Cabot and her two associates, Taylor Lee and Jazie Craig, after they are assigned to solve the mysterious death of the wife of a U.S. biological warfare expert. This team of "intuitive" parapsychologists consults for Colonel Sally Drake who runs S.A.S.S.--Secret Assignment Security Specialists, a group of highly trained American operatives who work outside normal protocol to protect the United States, but the American public can never know of their existence. Using S.A.S.S. as her anchor, Vicki Hinze presents each book like an episode in a television series. Only her gift for creating superb characters carries our suspension of disbelief so we can enjoy these stories forged in what seems a bizarre concept of identity theft.KILL ZONE entertains and dazzles, but after reading all four of the War Games series, I must confess I miss the Vicki Hinze military romantic suspense that first turned me into a loyal fan: SHADES OF GRAY, DUPLICITY, ACTS OF HONOR and ALL DUE RESPECT. In those she combined superb story-telling skills with literary grace and sensitivity. I was mesmerized by her prose as much as I was with her riveting intrigue. And then she wrote, HER PERFECT LIFE, and I was reminded of how she can depict the life of the men and women in the forces with such spiritual understanding while upholding literary standards above and beyond rules of suspense. This is her forte, and though I enjoy the War Game series, I yearn for her to return to books that drew me to her in the first place.

No one does action like Vicki Hinze, May 21 2009
By Debra Webb "Deb" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Kill Zone (Mass Market Paperback)
This book is killer! Usually one of the things that bothers me about high action stories with kick-butt characters is the lack of deep emotion/dimension in the characters. I didn't have to worry about that with this one! Hinze knows how to build a character. The women are real. Real, brilliant, and determined! I can only hope that Hinze will do more books like this. Don't miss the opportunity for a skilled veteran author to show you how it's supposed to be done!
