A Fun Twisted Tale

I'm a fan of Nancy Bush's mystery series and wasn't sure what she would do with a romantic-suspense story. I read WICKED GAME, the book she co-wrote with her sister, and loved it. UNSEEN written solely by Nancy Bush is fabulous with a lot of twists and turns! I kept thinking something else was going on and when I got to the end I was really surprised. UNSEEN delves deeper into the colony series that originated in WICKED GAME. It's a stand alone book that can be read without reading WICKED GAME but they're both really good. I can't wait for the next Colony book from either sister! I'm definitely keeping Nancy Bush as an author to watch.

exhilarating suspense thriller

She awakens confused in a bed that is obviously in an Oregon hospital. Winslow County Sheriff's Department Detective Will Tanninger is at her side and tells her she is at Laurelton general Hospital; he asks her name and after a hesitation says Gemma LaPorte. Her last memory was making breakfast while it was raining outside; he tells her it has not rained near here for three days. Finally he explains that she is his prime suspect in a hit and run that critically injured child molester Edward Letton, also in the hopspital but with much more severe injuries. Gemma suffers from traumatic induced amnesia, but could the trauma be hitting Letton as her face is battered perhaps from a steering wheel and she suffered a concussion. She also does not look close at the description provided by the young soccer player Carol Pelltor who Letton was targeting when he was mowed down. However, the mystery spins further as a serial killer who burns his victims somehow connects to Gemma's slowly returning memories. This is an exhilarating suspense thriller that cleverly contrasts a romantic subplot between Will and Gemma with a dark mystery. The story line is fast-paced and filled with action. However, the key to this tale is the comparisons as Will and Gemma's relationship slowly turns warmer and lovingly, a serial killer turns nastier. Fans will relish Nancy Bush's taut thriller as she leaves the colorful Jane Kelly mysteries for a much darker and intense suspense. Harriet Klausner
