Blind Alley (2005)
Blind Alley: An Eve Duncan Forensics Thriller is a book I found via the online public library, so I went into it not realizing it was part of a series. It made some sense despite that, though; Ms. Johansen made this book stand alone fairly well.Jane and Trevor are interesting characters. I did fe...
Stalemate (2006)
CLEVER PLOT AND PROMISES OF MANY MORE EVE STORIESIMO:You have to presuppose that the reader has an abhorrence of `disturbing the dead', or had a clear understanding and sides with the concept of `returning home' the remains of a murdered loved one. Frankly, I have neither. I was raised next door ...
The Face Of Deception (1999)
**Side Note:This book would be my second exposure or debut into mystery and suspense being the primary genre. My first being Killer Instinct by Zoe Sharp from the Charlie Fox Thriller series. The prologue blew me away! I could feel the agony that Eve Duncan was going through, especially when it ...
The Killing Game (2000)
WARNING RANT AHEADAfter tossing and turning all night, I decided that I would set my mind free and lower the rating to this book.

It starts with an art show. Jane is exhibiting her paintings at her friend Celine's Paris gallery and having great success. However, one of her paintings - Guilt - has attracted the attention of a cult based on worship of Judas. Though the image of the man in the painting came to Jane in a dream,...
Silencing Eve (2013)
I had a really hard time rating this book. While I love Eve Duncan, this trilogy really would have been better off as a single book in the larger series. It was very wordy and left me wondering if the author was simply trying to develop a higher word count so as to create and sell more books. Tha...
Taking Eve (2013)
I'd been reading Iris Johansen forever - since her first book was published - but quit several years ago because her books became full of melodrama, and totally unrealistic characters and plots. Yet, the concept of a forensic sculptor that helps bring missing children "home", still draws me back ...
Chasing The Night (2010)
The mystery and suspense were fantastic, but I didn't like the chemestry betweeen Catherine and Joe getting in the way; you were always waiting, expecting there to be an affair at any moment. I love the relationship between Eve & Joe and their bond, and was getting bothered that it was going to h...
