<table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%"><tbody><tr><td style="line-height:150%;" class="v11">Praise from WRITER'S DIGEST for Maureen Meehan Aplin's previous Mary MacIntosh books: <p></p> <p>PANDEMIC PREDATOR: &quot;Wow--good beginning, really jumps into the action. . . a wide-ranging, intriguing book.&quot; </p> <p>SNAKE RIVER SECRET: &quot;The structure of the book reminded me of the old Perry Mason novels, in which the legal staff itself is involved in the case personally. . . . Some very clever manipulation of clues, evidence, and trial procedure makes this a very good mystery.&quot; </p> <p>DYING TO SKI: &quot;(The)dialogues are brisk and realistic. A very intriguing premise. An excellent eye for physical details.&quot; </p> <p>&quot;This book is one of the few gems that you look for when you want a good read. Once you pick this book up, you simply can't put it down. ....&quot; Margaret Lopez Erpenbeck, reviewing Pandemic Predator, a Mary MacIntosh novel. </p></td> <td></td></tr><tr><td colspan="5"><img alt="" src="http://www.freado.com/s.gif" width="2" height="16" /></td></tr></tbody></table>
