Book Reviews of Ricochet

Probably her best book to date

Love story, but not just mush. All of SB's books have good stories and great men. If you like her....read. If you haven't read her, they are all pretty much separate books, except the Texas Trilogy. I won't give that one up!

Very enjoyable read!

A good thriller

When Detective Sergeant Duncan Hatcher is summoned to the home of Judge Cato Laird in the middle of the night to investigate a fatal shooting, he knows that discretion and kid-glove treatment are the keys to staying in the judge's good graces and keeping his job. At first glance, the case appears open and shut: Elise, the judge's trophy wife, interrupted a burglary in progress and killed the intruder in self defence. But Duncan is immediately suspicious of Elise's innocent act. His gut feeling is that her account of the shooting is only partially true--and it's the parts she's leaving out that bothers him.

Very good book...hard to put down.

A good read. Twists and turns. You'll enjoy it.

Great read! Full of twists and turns.... Who to believe??

Excellent book--riveting right to the end. So many twists and turns it is difficult to "figure it out" ahead of time.

Sandra Brown's books are always enjoyable, engrossing, well-researched and disturbing! Loved it!

Another good Sandra Brown story... and just when you think you know whats going to happen... she is still able to surprise you... very good read!

Sandra Brown wins again with an intriguing mystery and a pasionate love story.

Nice twists along the way. One of her better books I'd say.

A gripping thriller with plot twists--as only Brown can write them--and palpable suspense create a plot in which trusting the wrong person could mean the difference in life and death. (A hardcover book)

When Detective Sergeant Duncan Hatcher is summoned to the home of Judge Cato Laird in the middle of the night to investigate a fatal shooting, he knows that discretion and kid-glove treatment are the keys to staying in the judge's good graces and keeping his job.

At first glance, the case appears open-and-shut: Elise, the judge's trophy wife, interrupted a burglary in progress and killed the intruder in self-defense. But Duncan is immediately suspicious of Elise's innocent act. His gut feeling is that her account of the shooting is only partially tru -- and it's the parts she's leaving out that bother him.

Determined to learn the dead man's connection to the Lairds and get at the truth, Duncan investigates further and quickly finds his career, as well as his integrity, in jeopardy -- because he can't deny his increasing attraction to Elise Laird, even if she is a married woman, a proven liar, and a murder suspect.

When Elise seeks Duncan out privately and makes an incredible allegation, he initially dismisses it as the manipulative lie of a guilty woman. But what if she's telling the truth? Then that single fatal gunshot at her home takes on even more sinister significance, possibly involving Duncan's nemesis, the brutal crim lord Robert Savich.

And then Elise goes missing...

Ricochet's plot twists -- as only Sandra Brown can write them -- and palpable suspense combine to create this gripping thriller, in which a decent cop's worst enemy may be his own conscience, and trusting the wrong person could mean the difference between life and death.

Great read!!!

I really enjoyed this book. I love Sandra Brown's novels. This one wasn't quite as exciting as some of her books I have read, but still a very good book.

Excellant new Sandra Brown thriller!

Another can't miss by Sandra Brown
