Book Reviews of Cover of Night

Another terrific book from Linda Howard. This book is not as sexually charged as previous titles, but the book is powerful and captivates. A small town is cut off from the outside world and taken hostage as enemies fight to recover damaging computer documents that can topple illegal activities. The hero and heroine save the day.

Linda Howard is one of my favorite writers of romantic suspence. She pulls the reader into both sides of the story. I like that the "romance" is almost secondary to the real plot of the story.

Enjoyable characters that you want to get to know. You want everything to turn out ok so you can't put it down until you know they are.

Another intriguing story from Linda Howard. There is always a point in her books where you cn no longer put it down. You just have to see how it will all work its way out.

Interesting how the people in this town pull together to fight the enemy. Sweet romance.

Loved this book. Great romance with the heroine starting over with her twin sons and the hero seeming laid back until she really needed him. Fast paced. Great read.

This was an excellent book. The more you read the more you don't want to put it down. I really enjoyed reading it.

This was an excellent book about a woman who is a survivor on many levels.
Very exciting and romantic as well. It can open your eyes to see the possibilities that exist in our lives.

The story line was good with great characters and good plot but every time I read a Linda Howard book I tell myself it will be the last because of all of the superflous information she includes that has no relevance to the story line whatsoever. She tells us what color peoples clothes are and how pretty the storm clouds floating by are and a persons every thought during a suspenseful moment; which isn't needed.

Linda Howard did it again. I loved this book, even though it was a little slow at the start.

It's about a young widow with toddler twins running a bed & breakfast in a quaint little town and who gets entangled in a long and drawn out story. Plot makes no sense and the romance part doesn't start until like page 235. Not like Linda's earlier novels. If you like mystery, mountain climbing and stories about living in a small town, you might appreciate the book. The ex-military hero is actually quite dashing and honorable and has mooned over the young widow for years when danger strikes their little town and he comes to her rescue.

A little different from Howard's other books. However, it has an interesting storyline with very likable characters.

Great twists and turns. A powerful story that kept me up at night until I finished it!

Loved the character development and storyline. Excellent Suspense with some romance thrown in!

In a remote rural town, young widow Cate Nightingale runs a charming bed and breakfast. Business is quiet, but she makes ends meet with the help of the local jack-of-all-trades, Calvin Harris. Then one morning, the only guest vanishes. When arm men storm the house a few days later, Calvin saves the day. The nighmare is just beginning when the entire town is held hostage...

I couldn't put this book down. The main characters are very likeable and the story is good.

A young widow, Cate Nightingale, mother of twin boys, moves to Idaho and opens a bed and breakfast. It doesn't take long for troubel to follow. Armed men storm her B & B and hold her and a friend at gun point. Cal Harris saves the day. He gets the drop on the two and runs them out of town. End of story? Not hardly. The two regroup hire some help and hold the town hostaage. Read on to find out what happens.

Linda Howard alone is enough for this book !!!
I have read it 3 or 4 times....time to let it go.

This is the kind of book that once you start reading you can't put it down. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Excellent mystery.

This was a very interesting book really loved it.

Enjoyed this book quite a bit. Interesting storyline that will keep you on your toes!

As Howard knows so well how to do, this novel is an interesting combination of thriller, mystery and romance.

From back cover: In a remote rural town, young widow Cate Nightengale runs a charming bed-and-breakfast. Business is quiet, but she makes ends meet with the help of the local jack-of-all-trades, Calvin Harris.
Then one morning, the B and B's only guest vanishes. When armed men storm the house a few days later, Calvin saves the day, forcing the intruders to scatter into the surrounding woods.
The nightmare, however, is just beginning. With the entire town held hostage and cut off from the outside world, Cate and Calvin have no choice but to take the fight to their enemies under the cover of night. While reticent Cal becomes a fearless protector, Cate makes the most daring move of her life...into the very heart of danger.

Great book from Linda Howard. This book is exciting, and not as focussed on sex as some of the others. Interesting dynamics of a small town, and action involves how a small town which is cut off from the outside world works together.

No one of Linda's best. Hardly any romance to speak of. Okay read.
