Trauma survivor Lindsey Barnes hasn't fully recovered from
the ordeal that almost took her life, and now she's in the middle of another
crisis. Not only is she the sole witness in a high-profile murder case, but
someone is also pushing her to question her sanity.
Police detective Jack Tucker doesn't know what to make of her story, especially
when her elusive enemy leaves no evidence behind to lend credence to her
claims. Yet the more he gets to know the appealing personal chef, the more he's
convinced someone is targeting not only her sanity, but her life.
And unless they can figure out who is behind the campaign to undermine her
credibility, a murderer could slip away--leaving more than one body in his or
her wake.
With her signature spellbinding style, the bestselling and award-winning
"queen of inspirational romantic suspense" (Library Journal) delivers another riveting tale that will keep you turning pages long
into the night.
My
Thoughts:
Over
the Edge by Irene Hannon is a suspense novel that plays
with the heroine's mind. The plot was a little slow going. About sixty percent
into the novel, it picked up and became a much better suspense novel. The slow
building of the romance between Jack, the hero and detective, and, Lindsey, the heroine felt right for the type of story
that it was. I really liked the concept of the villain. I figured out who the
bad person was pretty soon. No surprise for me there. As for the setting, it is
a typical town with a murder running loose and the cops trying to solve the
mystery. I did enjoy seeing Jack trying to solve the mystery. I do enjoy the
concept of three foster siblings, and Hannon does a good job at showing their
relationship in this novel too. Overall, Over
the Edge by Irene Hannon does check off the lists of what a romantic suspense
novel needs. A good read for someone who enjoys their suspense novels with a
slight edge.
I received a complimentary copy of Over the Edge by Irene Hannon from
Revell Publishing, but the opinions stated are all my own.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars
