Denise Hamilton


While Others Sleep read books by Denise Hamilton for our March meeting. I had never read Denise Hamilton before and I did enjoy her books. Her background as a reporter makes the her plots real and believable. The only drawback I found was her love interest, Silvio. Their romance was not believable and he comes across as a real jerk. He makes brief appearances in her books, but enough that he bothered me! She needs to find someone better for Eve Diamond and get rid of Silvio!
I really enjoyed Prisoner of Memory, in which Eve's Russian heritage is revealed and intertwined with murder, the Cold War, and spies. I never understood why the last "r" in prisoner was backwards on the cover of the hardbound book. Is it a typo or has it some significance?
