Scarlett was a casualty of the war and thrust into life and death situations. She rose to the occasion and did what she had to do in the worst of circumstances of post civil war. I saw the movie recently too and it reminded me of how much I respected her tough choices.

Completely agree that the characters are no longer likeable. I also feel like the Scarpetta character keeps putting herself in some bonehead dangerous situations that don't even merit sympathy from the reader.

Disappointing to hear your reveiw on Baldacci's latest. I've read a few of his earlier books and really liked them.

Thanks for the recommendations...the book by Whittman sounds interesting.

I recently read a book review on this book and it sounds like an incredible story...but is it a good read? I don't know anything about this author.

Thanks canuck...will keep an eye out for his next release!

Just recently it myself for the first time. My kind of intrigue and suspense!

I used to be a huge Grisham fan, but haven't read any of his recent works. I agree that The Firm and The Pelican Brief were his best.

Recently read a couple of books that are part of a series, Wizardmont and Bryunzet, by Michael W. Lowe. They are fantasy with lots of action involving swords and magical bows! Waiting on his next book in the series.

Then you will love The Gatehouse...his character has gotten even better and his comments about his in-laws are hysterical!

I have not read Up Country, but have read Gold Coast and am currently reading the sequel to that, The Gatehouse, and have enjoyed both so far.

Glad to be on board! I read mostly fiction and and hope to find lots of good recommendations on espionage, murder thrillers, and fantasy books!
