Karin,just a quick note, to mention some of our members have joined/a thread "Buddy Read" on "A Good Thriller", all reading the first Will Trent book, which I have read.
Thought you might like to pop in the thread, read the comments.
Also read The Good Daughter recently.
Great you are still a member, and hope you will do another Q and A's at some stage when you are free.
