Search - Kill and Tell (John Medina, Bk 1)

Intrigue and a hot romance. Wowza!!

This is considered the percursor to All the Queen's Men but definitely works on its own.

The evolving relationship between Marc and Karen (who really don't like each other at first) is steamy!

Pretty good; a mix of romance and suspense. Not her best, but it was entertaining and I kept wanting to read more...stayed up a few late nights with this one!

not as good as some of her older titles

I liked this book, as it combines suspense and romance well. There was action, and the characters were likable. Kate's father was killed for book, and now they are after her. She has to trust Marc to keep her alive.

A great romantic suspense. After her mothers death she receives a package containing a mysterious notebook from the father she barely knows and she puts it away. Then he is murdered and accidents begin to happen so she must trust a homicide detective to help and save her.

Starts slow, but a page-turner to the end!!

Another great Linda Howard read. Karen Whitlaw is reeling from her mother's recent death when she receives a package from the father she barefly knew. When her father is murdered, Karen goes to New Orleans and meets us with homicide detective Marc Chastain.

Contemporary romance and mystery. Linda Howard writes some historical romance, this is not one of them.

This was my first Linda Howard book and therefore continues to be my favorite. A lot of mystery and intrigue and some great romance! You will love it!

Linda Howard has written another great book, very fast paced, hard to put down.

A very good mystery like the rest of her books.

Favorite all time author!!!

Great read. Very suspenseful. I would definitely recommend.

find read. very interesting book.
