couldn't stick with it, too many authors are using this same theme and it just gets kind of old when everyone has a 'special skill' and every author using this is also using the theme of a 'special group' of people forming a business---old hat

Amanda Gleason is at her rope's end. Her one-month old son, Justin, is fighting for his life. He has a rare disease and he needs a bone marrow transplant. Unfortunately for Amanda, her Hepatitis C prevents her from being a donor candidate. What she needs is Justin's father, but he was murdered eight months ago.

On a rare break at the hospital, Amanda receives a text from a friend. The text contains a picture that looks just like Paul, her old boyfriend who was killed. Grasping at straws, Amanda immediately moves into action and goes to FI, Forensic Instincts. There, she begs them to let her hire her. They have a reputation of closing cold cases and getting results, where normal law enforcement can't go.

After their initial coverage of the case, the team is sure that Paul is alive. A no-body homicide with too many loose ends sets the team into deep investigation on many levels. Not only do they find out that Paul was involved with the mob, but it seems that leads take them straight to Washington. Amanda's baby is running out of time, and her wealthy uncle, who is footing the medical bills, isn't looking too clean.

The team is has many talents, but will they find Paul before it's too late for Justin? Or will Amanda have to find another way to save her son if Paul is really dead? As the secrets are revealed, the danger increases around Amanda and her infant son.

THE LINE BETWEEN HERE AND GONE is a thrilling page-turner with a cast of unique and likable characters. From the first page, I was praying for baby Justin and hoping that Forensic Instincts could pull off a miracle. From the adrenaline pumping plot twists to the emotion packed hospital scenes, THE LINE BETWEEN HERE AND GONE is a clever and gut-wrenching thriller!

Amanda Gleason is desperate when she approaches Forensic Instincts for help. Her baby, Justin, is sick with a rare immune deficiency. His best chance for life is a bond marrow transplant from his parents. Amanda is not a match and his father is dead...or is he? Amanda has received information that Paul may actually be alive. She has hired the team at Forensic Instincts to find out if Paul is alive and bring him back to save Justin's life.

This is the second in Kane's Forensic Instincts series. The team consists of a behaviorist, a computer genius, a former Navy SEAL, an intuitive, an retired FBI agent, and a bloodhound. They each use their gifts to discover what exactly happened to Paul when he was presumed dead several months ago. The mystery was good, but some parts seemed to drag out a little too long. My rating: 4 Stars.

I felt like this book was fine, but I was expecting romantic suspense and it ended up being a pretty straight thriller. There's a touch of romance between some of the team members, but it is never the point of the story. Depending on what you are looking for that is either great or a disappointment! It's definitely page-turning as the life of an infant is on the line.

The second in the series, and unfortunately I read this series out of order, so I suggest stopping where you are at and going and finding the first and the third and read this one in order!

So the team was assembled in the first book and in this book, they get to take on a new case and it has fantastic twists and turns. I loved how the case is solved by using each of the member's unique skills and without each of them it wouldn't come together as easily. It was interesting to see the interactions from this private firm and the police and FBI.

I am officially a fan of Andrea Kane and this series and hope that these three are just the beginning!

I enjoyed this book very much. Not an easy book to put down once you get into the story. Andrea Kane's Forensic Instinct stories are a hit with me!
