Fiona and Jack have great chemistry, however, it is difficult to connect with them as individuals. Fiona comes across as aloof and emotionally reserved while Jack has an annoying habit of being economical with the truth. Important details about their backgrounds are gradually revealed but by then it is too little, too late. The serial killer plot is what makes this a worthwhile read. The initial set-up grabs you right off the bat and increases in tension and suspense to keep you on the edge of your seat. Fiona's occupation as a forensic artist adds a compelling layer both to her character and to the mystery, and the small town vibe is entertaining. The climax is also well-written and satisfying although the Fiona does lean toward being TSTL and the motivation for the crime could have been explained in more detail. On a final note, this book and its sequel, Whisper of Warning precede Griffin's Tracers series and a number of characters are set up here to get their own books. Fiona's uninhibited sister, Courtney, is the heroine of the sequel and Nathan's story is the first of the Tracers books (which I have already read and enjoyed). Looking forward to continuing both series. This book was really good. I enjoy Laura Griffins writing style, and how she has great strong but sweet and vulnerable heroines. The character of Fiona was a really interesting one, the idea of a forensic sketch artist was really unique. I wouldn't mind reading more books about characters like that, the supporting aspect of police work, too often the heroines are either cops or victims, the switch was really nice. The writing was amazing of course, and the hero was pretty awesome. My one problem was that I absolutely hated the character of Courtney, I had planned to read her book next, but I hated her character so much that I returned her book. My first Laura Griffin book and I'm hooked. An unerring mix of suspense, police procedural, and romance, THREAD OF FEAR had vivid, interesting characters that made for a very satisfying romance. I felt an actual thrill as they came together, and the relationship suspense was based on real human interactions rather than trumped up melodrama or misunderstandings. Loved this book, can't wait to read more. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
Onderdeel van de reeks(en)Glass Sisters (Book 1)
Forensic artist Fiona Glass is the best in the business -- which is precisely why she's quitting. Her skill at mining victims' memories to re-create the faces of sadistic criminals has left her haunted and wary, and only Jack Bowman's dogged persistence convinces her to help him. The rugged police chief is hunting a serial killer who's targeting teenage girls. But what seems like a simple assignment is fraught with complications, including a searing attraction to Jack that's tempting Fiona to let her guard down in potentially dangerous ways. Jack never intended for Fiona to become so deeply involved in the case -- or in his life. But every instinct tells him she's his best hope for finding a psychopath who's lurking in plain sight, growing more ruthless with each passing day. And now that Fiona is right in the killer's crosshairs, the only way to keep her safe is to unravel a small town's darkest secrets, one terrifying thread at a time....
