Hello, Darkness Kindle Edition

This one had me riveted, trying to figure out the twists and turns. Well-paced action and believable dialogue made the intensity utterly believable. You definitely should check this one out!

Hello Darkness, my old friend...oh wait...just Hello, Darkness. It's so hard not to sing the song with this title.Anywho, I liked what Sandra Brown did with this one. She was able to create five male suspects (well, maybe 2 of them were too weak to be the culprit but still) to keep me on my toes. Usually, I'm able to tell who the culprit is pretty early on. In this one, I had to wait until almost the end, to corroborate my suspicions.Paris Gibson moved to Austin looking for a new beginning. For a couple of years now, she has been doing a music radio show at night. She has developed a faithful and large audience. Paris loves her job. She's able to work almost alone and no one really knows who she is. She likes to wear glasses even in the dark. Her eyes are sensitive and the darkness is her friend.One night, a recurrent caller by the name of Valentino, tells her she's to blame for him kidnapping a young woman and in seventy-two hours, after raping her, he will kill her. Paris immediately seeks the help of the local police. She believes the threat of his listener and she wants to help in any way she can. What she was not expecting is to meet again a man from her past, Dean Malloy.Dean Malloy is a not only a cop, he's also a psychologist. Recently, his teenage son has moved in with him. but they are not seeing eye to eye. His son is rebellious and most of the time has a bad attitude. When Paris comes back into Dean's life, he knows his feelings for her never went away and he will do anything to protect her. Finding Valentino becomes his priority.Hello, Darkness had great suspense with a good built-in romance! I didn't approve of some of the things both main characters have done/doing but it didn't take away from me liking them both. I was glad they were able to have their second chance.As for the bad guy, like I said earlier, there were so many who could be Valentino. The big reveal had its own twist which surprised me.Sandra Brown proves once again, she knows how to write suspense novels.Cliffhanger: No4/5 Fangs

Item was as described and was delivered a couple of days earlier than expected.

Intense, twisted, kept you guessing who the killer was & just when you thought you knew where the plot was going, it went somewhere else! A Great read, could not put it down.

Excellent book. Keeps you guessing until the very end. Sandra Brown is the mystery queen. I love all her books.

I did like this story, a bit long and there were many twists of storylines and many characters to add to the book. I liked that Paris was a strong character and talked what was on her mind. I do have to agree with another review about this book how the author used unnecessarily large words to describe something that could be said by just saying what the word meant such as vituperative which means abusive, bitter or dissidence which means protest against official policy. It was irritating to come across these large words, just tell the story, thank goodness Kindle has a dictionary!

I don't care for some of Sandra Brown's books. But those have always been the ones written 20 or so years ago and that's because ideals etc. have changed so much since then.I've waited anxiously for this new book and it was definitely not worth the wait.1. The characters were flat and boring.2. The coincidences were way out of control. Brad, Janey, Paris, Dean, Gavin, etc. The possibilty of all of them being connected in the same murder, ending up in the same city and having the amount of previous connections-unlikely at best.3. What was with Paris and the sunglasses? She was sensitive to light but that sure changed in the end.4. There was no chemistry between Paris and Dean.5. What gave Paris the right to decide Dean couldn't see Jack? Considering Dean had known him a lot longer than she had Dean was more likely to know what Jack would want. Also they were both equally responsible for what had happened so why should she punish Jack.6. I figured out who the murderer was as soon as he appeared in the book.7. Paris was unlikeable and had about as much depth as a piece of paper.I am an avid Sandra Brown fan and I can only hope her next book is a whole lot better.I can however recommend French Silk, The Crush, Charade.

Every time you think you know who the murderer is there is another twist!Chilling an suspenseful- definitely recommended! A must read!
