From Library Journal

The author of such best sellers as See Jane Run (LJ 3/15/91) has had a field day writing her heroines into dangerous situations and then pulling them to safety, bloodied but unbowed. In her latest, violence shatters the formerly comfortable world of a woman and her daughter.

1.0�toiles sur 5 A very long read that leads to an unintelligible ending., Avril 15 1999

Par	Michael Schau (New York, NY United States) - Voir tous mes commentaires (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Breakheart Hill (Paperback)

This is a very long, static and redundant tale that comes to an abrupt conclusion that could cause mental whiplash. I am curious that the other reader/reviewers who have made entires here find the story and its sudden, odd and unlikely ending so fascinating. I re-read the last four pages several times with the hope that the meaning would dawn on me. I get the facts of the finale, just not the context in which they fit into this story. I consider myself an avid reader (and one who grasps the plots and nuances of writing) but this one makes absolutely no sense to me whatsoever. (I welcome comments from any reader who can clear up the matter in a private e-mail; I have written to Mr. Cook to ask for an explanation.). Definitely not worth the effort for me; move on to the next book on your list.

1.0�toiles sur 5 incredibly bad book--so much potential, Jui 13 2004

Par	fredwoods (Washington DC) - Voir tous mes commentaires

This review is from: Breakheart Hill (Paperback)

I was enthraled by this book. This was the first of this author that I had read. I could hardly put it down, the writing was incredible.

And then the ending came and it was as if all the air went out of the balloon. Lame, weak, stupid, words fail me.

This guy writes well but someone needs to supply him with a plot that works. What a sad waste of time to read this book.

5.0�toiles sur 5 Reason I love Cook, Mai 20 2004

Par	Judith Hodges (GA) - Voir tous mes commentaires (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Breakheart Hill (Paperback)

This book is another reason I love Thomas H. Cook. He has a way of telling a story that keeps you on edge. You are dying to know how it ends, but the journey is long and often dark. When I first started reading this book, I wanted to rush to the end, but his story kept me hooked. He is not like most authors that write the same story with a different character everytime. For someone like me that reads lots of mysteries, it is nice to be challenged in a book. His writing style makes you slow down and enjoy the ride making it a great read.
