Sometimes the gravest dangers -- and the darkest souls -- live right beside us....
In the span of twenty-four hours, every-thing Laurel Shields believes about her life and her marriage to a prominent doctor will be shattered -- if she survives a terrifying ordeal. The day begins with the jarring discovery that, soon after ending an affair, Laurel is pregnant. But when she returns home to find her husband ashen, unkempt, and on the brink of violence, a nightmare quickly unfolds. In the heart of an idyllic Mississippi town, behind the walls of her perfect house, Laurel finds herself locked in a volatile standoff with a husband she barely recognizes. Confronted with evidence of her betrayal, she must tread a deadly path between truth and deception while a ring of armed police prepares a dangerous rescue. But Laurel's greatest fear -- and her only hope -- lies with her former lover, a brave man whom fate has granted the power to save both Laurel and her children -- if she can protect his identity long enough....

Couldn't put it down!! -  |
Third Degree: A Novel Review |
|
If you want a book to take to bed and read before you go to sleep, DON'T TAKE THIS ONE!!! You can't put it down!
I read the second half of the book in one night and wanted more!!! It is a true cliff hanger! Best novel I have read in some time!! |

Disappointing -  |
Third Degree: A Novel Review |
|
I was pretty shocked during and after this book. This is, by far, his worst work.
I found myself in an eternal wait for a punchline that was never delivered. This is very unlike Iles. It almost seems as if someone else wrote the book. I have read and loved all of his prior books. That is why this one is such a shock to me.There is nothing of substance here. I hope he can learn from this mistake. |

Third degree bomb -  |
Third Degree: A Novel Review |
|
Until this book I was an enthusiastic Isles fan. I would buy his latest book as soon as it came out with absolutely no reservations. No more. This book is a disservice to all his loyal fans. We should be able to get our hard-earned money back on this stinker.
He stretches the accusation & denial theme to excruciating lengths. He builds no sympathy or empathy for any of the characters. We simply don't care. It is like watching a TV show of COPS where they show a domestic confrontation; yeah, there is some heated emotion on both sides, but we really don't know or care about the combatants. Same thing in this book. I had no problem, halfway through, with considerable skimming without missing anything, putting the book, and myself, out of our mutual misery, by pitching it into the trash. I would not even give it away, for fear of someone thinking: "He reads this crap?". I don't entirely blame Isles. There must be considerable pressure on authors to crank out a new one every year. This problem has periodically befallen many authors that I have enjoyed over the years. The publisher really should have deep-six'd this one. Publishing something this pathetic merely alienates the loyal fan base and makes future purchases more uncertain. I will assuredly wait for many reviews on his next book before making a decision to plunk down my hard-earned cash the next time. |

Third Degree: A Novel Review |
|
Third Degree is one overly long gossip column. There is an obsession with male sex acts. What is the point. Extended commentary on sexual prowess and income tax evasion are apparently to serve in lieu of a plot.
I read it because I paid $10 to read an "electrifying bestseller of Southern small-town suspense." What suspense? Everything is highly predictable. Save your money. |

Iles trademark formula - but missing the magic - |
Third Degree: A Novel Review |
|
This passes as an acceptable thriller - but only because Iles still uses his standard formula of time-constrained tension (in fact, it all pretty much occurs in a day), combined with a unique premise, a couple of red herrings and some surprising actions based on the character's personality. All which result in an "I can't put it down" type book.
This one lends itself to more to stereo-typical characters and stretches believability. After the first half I picked it up in smatters just so I'd know the ending, before I tossed it. The first book I read by Iles was 24 Hours. In this genre, to me, that one was worth five stars for it's premise, plotting and roller-coaster tension. If you're a first time Iles reader that's the one to go for. |
