I am a long time Catherine Coulter fan although I've found her books of late to be disappointing. Perhaps it's time for her to move to stand alone's as her primary characters have become tired. The dialog is very like, book to book, though not as continually cutsey as some in the recent past, "hey and but hey" over and over for instance. This story was, overall, boring and predictable, way too long, too many characters, and while I don't expect characters in a novel to necessarily be life like, it is basically a romance after all, those in this plot weren't even slightly interesting. It seems as if she's just riding on the coattails of her long years of success and her editors as well. This plot had potential, but quickly bogged down. Along the way she took a couple of swipes at NPR which I find kind of strange because I listen to it a great deal and have always found them to bend over backward to be even handed, in direct opposition to most radio stations, or perhaps she's simply pushing her own political agenda.

Catherine Coulter is all ways a winner. I love her FBI thrillers. She has me hooked and I can't wait for the next one.
 So bad... September 17, 2008

This book was so bad that I had to get out of bed after I finished reading it to write this review.
The first two-thirds of the book was so slow and boring I almost put it down. Wish I had.
Then, for a moment of time, it was okay. I almost cared about the characters and the outcome.
Shortly thereafter, I wanted to ask the author if she considered working at Burger King because being an author certainly does not seem to be her area of expertise.
The plot went from dull to outlandish. The facts were distorted. (A Cessna, with a bomb on board would not simply crash land. It would be blown to smithereens and would not be survivable.)
To be honest and fair, this is the first book I've read by this author. And the last.
I purchased the book because I am a pilot, and the name/photo caught my attention. (So much for great marketing!) The write-up was intriguing. The fact that it was a best-seller, sold me.
But I've learned my lesson, for sure. Sometimes best-sellers are simply very well marketed.
another smash hit September 4, 2008

Catherine Coulter's FBI series never disappoints me. Once again she has hit the heart of her writing talents with suspense, twists and a touch of romance. What I really like most is that she focuses on her characters and develops them well, so that when you are finished reading this book you are left with wanting more about them and eagerly waiting her next book. Savich and Sherlock are a dynamic pair and ones that you are always rooting for to crack the case. When reading Tailspin I couldn't put it down plus it grabbed me on the very first page. Keep writing this series Catherine and I am anxiously awaiting your next one.
