That's where Sierra Montgomery finds herself after witnessing the fiery murder of her fiance. She does the only thing she can. She runs for her life. And when her closest friend is murdered in similar fashion, she realizes it's not coincidence, it's a conspiracy. As she flees, she tries to piece together a mystery that grows more insidious and explosive with every new detail. <br /><br />This story starts at a sprint and doesn't let up. It's a sizzling summer read, fall read, blood pumping winter read, or afresh spring read. The one thing I can guarantee is once you start, you won't stop. <br /><br /><div style="margin-bottom:.5em;"><span style="margin-right:5px;"><span class="swSprite s_star_5_0" title="5.0 out of 5 stars"><span>5.0 out of 5 stars</span></span> </span><span style="vertical-align:middle;"><strong>Engaging Heroine</strong>, August 8, 2011</span> </div> <div style="margin-bottom:.5em;"> <div> <div style="float:left;">By </div> <div style="float:left;"><span style="font-weight:bold;">William E.

Problem is, she can't always tell who's who. Sierra didn't choose this battle, but she doesn't back down from it, either. Miss Gordon keeps the pressure on Sierra--and on the reader--until the very end of this fast-paced book. Highly recommended! <br /><br /><span style="vertical-align:middle;"><strong>Incredible Book!</strong>, August 3, 2011</span> <div style="margin-bottom:.5em;"> <div> <div style="float:left;">By </div> <div style="float:left;"><span style="font-weight:bold;">Daryl Sedore</span></div></div> <div style="clear:both;"></div></div> <div style="margin-bottom:.5em;" class="tiny"><strong><span class="h3color tiny"><font color="#e47911">This review is from: </font></span>State of Panic (Kindle Edition)</strong> </div>This is seriously an incredible book.

The action starts almost immediately and picks up steam but never turns into &quot;The Perils of Pauline&quot; type action. The relationships between the characters rings true even when those relationships do a complete reversal. Or are they real reversals or just an act? Even though I found myself humming the theme from Twilight Zone it suddenly started to make sense. but the journey into the weird was fun. As the book was winding down I wanted more, not more danger but more of 'but what happens now?' The Epilogue was satisfying but I would have loved more of the story, a more detailed explanation. To say more would turn this into a spoiler and the book needs to be enjoyed and savored. <br /><br />It's hard to believe that this is the author's first book and I hope she write many more. I'll read anything she writes.
