Publisher's Weekly Review
Suspense writer Hannon (Against All Odds) offers her third in the Heroes of Quantico series, where she presents fast-paced crime drama with an aside of romance. The story opens with the sensitive and artistic piano instructor, Rachel Sutton, happening upon a Raggedy Ann doll buried in the snow of a parking lot. What happens when Rachel picks up this doll shocks and disturbs her, so much so, she presses past her self-preservation mode and tells her story to FBI agent Nick Bradley. Initially nonplussed by her account, Nick is unable to shake a persistent feeling that Rachel is for real and not some psychic wanna-be. Quickly, the report of a missing baby is linked with the doll, as are secrets surrounding Rachel's past. Both Nick and Rachel develop a mutual respect and affection for one another as they piece together the clues behind an ever-climactic mystery. Hannon's tale is engagingly sure-footed overall, yet at points reads too predictably for avid crime enthusiasts. (Apr.) (c) Copyright PWxyz, LLC. All rights reserved
Library Journal Review
When piano teacher Rachel Sutton picks up a Raggedy Ann doll in a parking lot, she experiences a feeling of terror. FBI Agent Nick Bradley dismisses her feeling as psychic mumbo jumbo until clues come to light that link the doll to an abducted child. -VERDICT This is a fine-tuned suspense tale that incorporates elements of romance, relieving what might otherwise be a too-intense experience. RITAr Award winner Hannon is a master at character development, writing believable, three-dimensional characters. Fans of Dee Henderson will enjoy this book. New readers will want to go back and read the first two titles in the series (Against All Odds; An Eye for an Eye). (c) Copyright 2010.
