Book Description:
"Do you still miss your little Bonnie?"
This one sentence, spoken by a madman in an anonymous phone call, is all it takes to drag Eve Duncan right back to that horrifying day years ago when her only daughter vanished without a trace. Since that day, her life has become an obsession to find Bonnie's remains and put the pain of her death to rest. However, one man wants nothing more than to prevent that from happening. He is every woman's waking nightmare: a brilliant, ruthless killer whose hunting ground stretches from coast to coast. But taunting Eve Duncan might be his first and last mistake....
For Eve is armed with more than just her talent as a forensic sculptor and her fierce protective nature. She brings with her former Navy SEAL Joe Quinn, an Atlanta detective who will do whatever it takes to bring Eve some kind of peace, even if he has to lie to her to do it.
Eve's only salvation may be through the mysterious skills of another woman whose chilling talent leaves her as tormented as Eve - and as driven to bring this monster to justice. But when lives are in danger, every step could be a trap, and every inch of solid ground seems to be shifting under their feet. And this killer wants nothing more than to lure Eve further and further into his swamp of madness....

Eve continues to be obsessed with the loss of her daughter Bonnie. She receives a phone call from a mysterious man claiming to know where the body is. As Eve and her friend joe Quinn become involved in the search for the brilliant and disturbed killer Eve must come to terms with her relationship with Joe, her attraction to the arms dealer Luis Montalvo and her inability to let Bonnie go. Along the way she crosses paths with a psychic who has her own horrifying problems to deal with. In the end will Eve find Bonnie's body and find piece or will her obsession drive Joe away. Some very interesting turns and twists make his a fun and interesting read.

This is like all of Iris Johansen's books - grabs you right from the first page and keeps going full-throttle to the last page.

Jennifer W. (This was another really good read in the Eve Duncan series, although I still find myself getting tired of Eve on occasion. I was happy to see a reappearance of Montalvo, was a little perked up by the fact that Joe Quinn grew a new backbone in this story, and was really excited by the part that Megan Blair played in the story (see PANDORA'S DAUGHTER).
I know that Eve needs to find the body of her daughter, Bonnie, for closure. I know that she's obsessed with this task. But, sometimes, you just want to smack her for letting it ruin so many other aspects of her life.
Many times throughout QUICKSAND I had to wonder what either Joe or Montalvo see in this woman -- I think she'd drive me batty. No matter what happens in the long run, though, I hope to see more of a paranormal aspect to the storyline: and it seems that there will be, what with the way the story ends.
If you're a follower of the Eve Duncan series, you'll want to read this one. It's good overall, and you can always hope that Montalvo comes to his senses and looks for a new woman to obsess over soon.
This book is a very good read. I didn't want to put it down until I found out what happened. This was my first book of Iris Johansen's that I read & I will be reading more of hers.
