Customer Reviews

Good read

This is the second book of the Instinct" series I have read and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The story is good it is not overly gruesome and the plot keeps twisting back and forth to keep you on the edge of your seat till the last few pages. After reading this I ordered 2 more of the books in the series. I would also recomend Unnatural Instinct as a follow up to this book. Jessica Coran kicks butt.

Best Ever

I have to admit this is the first of Robert Walkers book i have read, though I am a big reader of mystery books. This is by far the best book i have read. It takes a few pages to get really into it but its just gets better and better. Great book.

Walker shines in his HC debut!

I've read all of the INSTINCT books and must say that this is a very literary and well-written novel. This one is set in London, England and follows evil in a few disguises...the twist of who actually is behind the murders is good. The only bad part was the story of TATOO MAN, I don't think that should have been in this one, a waste of space. I'm glad Walker decided not to tell us who the killer is, like he's done in the past books. I like a little whodunnit in my suspense books I read.Walker's knowledge of English terms and language is masterful, Jessica's dillemas are all to real and the outcome leaves me wanting more of this series.I'm currently hunting down any and all of Walker's other books and look forward to his next one. Good stuff!

An intellectual Cornwell

Though she works for the FBI, her reputation as the world's leading forensic pathologist has Scotland Yard asking Jessica Coran to help them with a gruesome case. Even though she has a stateside case, the thought of visiting London on a working holiday pleases her no end. She hopes her boyfriend will fly in form Hawaii to join her, but that fails to happen. Still, Jessica flies to England to work with Scotland Yard on the fascinating investigation.Crucifixion may be one of the most hideous ways to die because it is slow and painful. By the time Jessica arrives, three victims have died by that torturous method. Two more deaths follow. The five victims have nothing in common except for a religious phrase inscribed in their tongues. Many people believe that the Second Coming is upon us. Jessica and her cohorts believe that a cult is hastening the event. Jessica places herself in danger trying to expose the culprits.Fans of Cornwell and Goldberg (the writer) will definitely want to read Robert W. Walker's BLIND INSTINCT. The strong heroine is a feisty, independent person who relishes falling in love with an unexpected suitor. Though obstinate and brilliant, Jessica is a likable protagonist. The mystery is cleverly handled with the audience aware from almost the onset who is causing problems. This tale will make Mr. Walker a household name as he reaches the bestseller lists.Harriet Klausner

Another Very Enjoyable Thriller By Robert W. Walker!

Mr. Walker does writes another winner with Blind Instinct. Jessica Coran is back to solve the cruxification murders of the citizens of London while back at home J.T. (her assistant) is on the case of the Tattoo-Man! A little boring at parts, but overall a worthwile read! Great work Robert!
