Customer Reviews

the best 500 pages ever written.

while im a big fan of john grisham, as well as numerous other authors and books. however, i thoroughly enjoyed this book. gilstrap is an excellent author, and his use of descriptive language is great. often at times, i found myself gripping the pages, wanting to know what happens next.the book is a great suspense thriller. every chapter adds to the twist of the story. read this book; it's well worth your time.

COULD THIS BOOK BE ANY BETTER?

I'm not gonna waste your time telling you what I think, after all, I'm just some kid in Ohio. Read the book and I guarantee you won't be disappointed.

BRILLIANT

I was given this book as a Christmas gift and I just could not put it down.John Gilstrap is the next best thing to John Grisham.

Best thriller I've read in a long time

I sort of bought this by accident. I was looking for John Grisham's 'A time to Kill', the one I hadn't read. 'At all costs' was sitting next to it and, as the type face of the author was the same, I first mistook it for a 'Grisham'. After reading the back I decided to buy it as well and it sat in the bookcase while I started on 'A Time to Kill'.I picked up 'At all costs late on a Tuesday night, was that a BIG mistake! I just could not put the book down. The story starts slowly enough, by quirk of fate an ordinary family guy get's caught up in a drug's bust and hauled off to sit in jail for a couple of hours, then Wham! you are launched into an incredible story of intrigue and suspense that turns so many blind corners you can never guess what's coming next. Thrilling to the last page. Already recommended to my bookworm friends and I am now looking for a copy of 'Nathans Run'.

A great read!

At the definition of "page-turner" your dictionary should have a photo of this book! It's about a family struggling to survive, being on the run for 14 years. They seem to be like that nice family next door---or are they actually mass murderers? A truly skilled author spins a truly fascinating yarn.
