Librarian's Note: There is more than one author with this name.
Carol Smith was born in London and worked in the book trade, both in London and New York, before becoming a full-time writer herself. For much of that time she ran her own literary agency, focussed on finding and developing new talent, although now her own writing takes up most of her time. She lives in Kensington. She also writes under the name Alex Crowe.
Both of these novels had really good premises. Interesting storylines like no thriller I had read before. But I felt like the author rushed through the endings. Like she had to wrap them up in a minimal amount of pages. And, quite frankly, it's one of my pet peeves in books. I would have rated them higher if it wasn't for those damn endings.
Omnibus...two books in one. Not well written but ok story line for first one. 2nd one is so confusing and just stops abruptly with no real explanation or finale
