Stephanie Plum series. When a laid-off
retailer finds the unemployment shuffle kicking her into
her parent's house, she finds herself in a new career working
for her cousins--as a bounty hunter. This mystery series is
swift, hillarious, and addictive:
[One for the Money]-starts it all [Two for the Dough] [Three to Get Deadly] [Four To Score] [High Five]-paperback due out June 2000 [High Five]-hardcover available now [Hot Six]-hardcover out June 20, 2000 Stephanie is hunting a mentor. Oh No! 5 star mystery!!!!!
Nora Roberts writing as JD ROBB is brilliant!
Meet Lt Eve Dallas who works homicide in New York, 2058. She's a no-frills gal with a rapier wit and a cunnying habit of solving murders despite their high profile. The series is
fantastic. Tight murder mysteries, a touch of romance,
humorous sarcastic dialogues, and characters that are too easy
to abstain from loving.
Below is correct order of novels according to publishing dates. It starts with [Naked In Death], [Glory In Death],
[Immortal
in Death],
[Rapture In Death], [Ceremony In Death], [Vengeance In Death], [Holiday In Death],
[Conspiracy In Death], [Loyalty In Death], [Witness In Death- out March 2000] JUDGEMENT IN DEATH--out Sept 2000
I'm halfway into the series and enjoying the laughs and midnight
reading. If you know of an author similar to Nora Roberts let me
know? wilma3@fnol.net I
fear being through the series before the month is out.

3 Complete Novels:Dean Koontz an excellent read Dean Koontz delivers and awesome trilogy of stories. It hits hard with THE HOUSE OF THUNDER. It begins very creepy, grabbing you from the first page. Next, and weakest (but still great) is SHADOWFIRES. It is a little slow to begin with, but quickly becomes fast paced and exciting. The last, MIDNIGHT, is probably the most creepy. Most of the resident of Moonlight Cove, California are changing . . . losing emotions, becoming animals. But what is causing it . . . and how will the few normal humans make it out when they become violent?

Civil War-era mysteries as appealing as Anne Perry's historical procedurals.

planned score Jimmy loves."
12 Drummers Drumming : A Novel of Suspense
Diana Deverell AUGUST 1998 A debut mystery writer, Diana Deverell's 12 DRUMMERS DRUMMING is a dynamite action
thriller. It kept me up well past my bedtime. I could not put it down. Had
to find out how Casey Collins, its FSO heroine, thwarts a Libyan terrorist
plot.

Bag of Bones Stephen King Released Sept 1998 "A reader from Denver, Colorado , August 29, 1998 Excellent! At his best, his writing has never been better.. My favorite book of King's was The Talisman, and of course The Shining. Couldn't put this one down. Have read 16 books this summer from Amazon.com and this was the best. Want another book that will scare the hell out of you, then read Brad Steiger's new book, Alien Rapture. It is a scifi-horror /conspiracy that has characters as in depth as King's new novel. I purchased both books for gifts. I recommend it very much"
