Body of Evidence by Irene Hannon is the third in the Triple Threat series. While the entire series is a must-read, you can probably jump in with Body of Evidence and keep up. The series focuses on three sisters, and this is Grace Reilly’s story. Hers is probably the most fascinating out of her sister’s stories in that Grace is a forensic pathologist. She took a lot of grief from her sisters in past books for choosing to hang out with dead bodies on a Saturday night rather than go out with, you know, the living.

Grace takes a job in a rural county and starts to see a pattern develop when a few elderly people die. She suspects foul play, but there isn’t enough conclusive evidence. She meets Sherriff Nate Cox, who believes her. Sparks fly between the two as they try to prove that something nefarious is happening in their small town.

I love this series, so of course Body of Evidence hit my wish list as far as a “must-read” story. The mystery took me a while to unravel, and I love Grace’s spunk. My favorite scenes are when she gets together with her sisters. Their camaraderie is quite entertaining.

If you are looking for a fast-paced and enjoyable book to kick off your fall, look no further than Body of Evidence on October 4^th.

Labyrinth of Lies by Irene Hannon is a fantastic read for suspense fans. It hits all of the marks for me: undercover police, Mexican drug cartel, DEA agents, plot twists, action, drama, danger, and an over-the-top-intense ending.  Cate Reilly goes undercover in a boarding school to find out what happened to a missing teenager. But, DEA agent and Cate’s former boyfriend, Zeke Sloan, also goes undercover. Imagine the tension when they both meet undercover. They decide to work together to close both cases.

I really liked the suspense elements in this story. You’ve got the drug dealers, Cate posing as an undercover student, Zeke trying to hide his feelings for Cate as they contend with their contentious break up, and the mystery of the missing girl. I really like that Hannon writes from various points of view, including several of the potential villains, so readers get total immersion in the story as they try to figure out who the culprits are.

Definitely move this up your TBR list. It’s book two in the Triple Threat series, but you can read as a standalone.

Overall Rating:
5 stars (I loved it, couldn’t put it down)

Suspense Rating:

For Fans of Romantic Suspense and Drama

Point of Danger by Irene Hannon puts emphasis on the danger parts. The story revolves around Eve Reilly, an edgy ultra-conservative talk show host with viewpoints that put her in hot water with her critics. Several people want to see her silenced, and she receives multiple threats. As the threats escalate, police detective Brent Lange gets involved, professionally and personally with Eve.

I love the plot twists in this book! Lots of red herrings made me think just about anyone could have been the culprit. There’s lots of danger and action in this story, but there is quite a focus on the budding romance between Eve and Brent. Brent’s shell-shocked from prior relationships and has no idea how to be in one. Eve’s just an overall great character as a female lead that knows what she wants and doesn’t apologize to anyone for her beliefs. The ending had some shocking twists, but I gave this 4 stars because I felt like a few of the “red herrings” kind of faded into the night – I didn’t understand how they were connected to the story in the end. But all of the false leads and motives these characters had for wanting to stop Eve’s show really added to the story line.

Definitely check out Point of Danger. It’s an action-packed drama that will have you hooked, trying to piece together clues until the very end. I’m looking forward to the others in the series.

Overall Rating:
4 stars (I liked it a lot and would definitely recommend)

Suspense Rating:
4 stars (lots of action and suspense to keep me intrigued)
