Deadly Intentions | Blog Tour and Review
Back Cover
There is no such thing as random.
Research scientist Caitlyn Lindsey is convinced that someone is taking out her team one by one. First, a friend and research partner was killed in a home invasion. Three months ago, her boss died in a suspicious car accident. Four days ago, another partner supposedly committed suicide. And now Caitlyn herself has miraculously survived a hit-and-run. Afraid for her life with nowhere to turn, she reaches out to one of the victims' husbands, Detective Josh Solomon.
Though initially skeptical about Caitlyn's theory, Josh soon realizes the attack that took his wife's life was anything but random. Now the two of them must discover the truth about who is after Caitlyn's team -- and what their end game is -- before it's too late.
My Thoughts
This story was . . . just okay. I had the plot pretty much figured by the time I was a quarter of the way into it, so that takes a lot of points off for me. If you're looking for a relaxing light mystery that doesn't take much emotional involvement . . . you can have my copy. :)
The characters were realistic enough, and I liked Josh's partner Quinton. Josh and Caitlyn's relationship turned out pretty well, too. But the dialogue was awkward at times and some the situations were hard to believe. Lisa Harris is an award-winning, bestselling author, so I'm sure some of her other books are great, and I'd like to give one a try someday! But this new release had the feel of being churned out without much complexity or uniqueness.
2 stars.
