Review: Point of Danger by Irene Hannon

 

About:

Hate mail was one thing. This was quite another.

Radio talk show host Eve Reilly is used to backlash from her pot-stirring on-air commentary and interviews. But now it seems a disgruntled listener is resorting to more than angry words to express their displeasure. When a suspicious package arrives on her doorstep, Eve turns to law enforcement for help.

Police detective Brent Lange can't find any evidence to link the string of unsettling incidents that follows, but he's convinced they're connected. As the harassment grows more menacing, it becomes clear someone wants Eve's voice silenced--permanently. 

But unless he can track down her elusive foe, the gutsy woman who is willing to take risks for what she believes--and who is swiftly winning his heart--may not survive.

My Thoughts:

Eve Reilly is a woman who speaks her mind and a lot of people don't like that. Especially since her radio show is very popular. Unfortunately, fiction sometimes mirrors real life and Eve's life is in now in danger because someone doesn't like her beliefs.

Police detective Brent Lange gets assigned to her job and is trying very hard to get to the bottom of these threats against Eve. What I liked about this story, and that may very well be why it is called the Triple Threat series, is there are about three scenarios this could go. Each underlying threat seems valid and so I was kept guessing pretty much till the end. 

We get a great panoramic view from some of the other characters points of views. Even the suspects. Of which some seemed obvious while others were more hidden. This put me in mind of the movie Bodyguard for some reason and it was a pretty intense read. Especially when like Eve, the reader was kept guessing and looking around every fictional corner as well.

I received a copy of this novel from Revell through Interviews and Reviews. I was not required to post a positive review and all views and opinions are my own.
