Amazon.com Review Full of karate, pistol-whipping, and other malevolent mayhem, Catherine Coulter's The Maze could be described as a junior-varsity version of Silence of the Lambs. As in that novel, the heroine in The Maze, Lacey Sherlock, becomes an FBI agent to help unravel the mysteries of her own past. Seven years after her sister was brutally slain by a serial killer (the wonderfully creepy "String Killer"), Lacey is assigned to the FBI's Criminal Apprehension Unit (CAU). The CAU, headed by brawny bureau egghead Dillon Savich, uses computer modeling to catch the baddest guys around--it's like profiling, but with databases. Before you know it, Dillon and Lacey are tangling with the String Killer. Even when the scenarios are not terribly inventive--"Let's use Lacey as bait! What a great idea!"--Coulter makes sure that her bad guys are good and twisted. A touch of bloody-mindedness can cover up a multitude of sins, and on that score, The Maze satisfies.
Product Description FBI Special Agent Dillon Savich teams up with new agent Lacey Sherlock in a case that leads them back to the murder of Sherlock's sister seven years ago, and puts both their lives on the line.

A Disappointment August 27, 2008 Silly plot with plenty of little subplots that never get resolved, unbelievable conversatons and scripts, simple ploys to divert the reader away from figuring out who the killer was, and waaaay too many comments about "liberal judges" and "do-gooder," idiot psychiatrists. I haven't read any other books by this author (nor will I) but I suspect that she should have stuck with romances. I like practically everything when it comes to reading material, but this one was truly a waste of time!
Early characterization shows May 6, 2008 This book is the first in the Sherlock/Savich series, and though I've read others, this was my first insight into how they met. I was really interested in the mystery/crime portion, however, the romance and character interactions left me cringing. I know the characters are better than that, I've read other books where those same characters were alive and 'real' - but here they just seem hollow and silly. And though I did cringe through the love scenes and stupid conversations, I was interested enough in the meat of the story to plough through it. And it was worth it. This book had me second-guessing my second guesses! I wish the author would go back, now that there have been several books in this series, and rework the characters a bit. Then it would be a very, very good novel.

Remember Dillion Savich from The Cove? He's back with his computer MAX collecting data for local officials who seek his help. Then a small flaming redhead carrying a truck load of fear takes him down for her final exam. He adds the novice agent to his unit and she uses her new job to track the man who killed her step-sister and left her behind locked doors. Her family has creased to function, but the fragile strains of love remain as her mother hides in depression. Not a good mix for a young woman with a mission. The plot twists and turns as the pages fly, with a wickedly suspenseful ending. High drama and good story telling. Nash Black, author of TRAVELERS and SINS OF THE FATHERS.
Great Book December 6, 2007 Ordered this book from Amazon along with "The Cove" after reading "Point Blank" and wanting to learn more about the characters. This is book two in Coulter's FBI Series, the third book that I've read by her, and it is by far my favorite. Great action, great suspense, characters that make you want to tear your hair out one minute and laugh the next. It also kept me guessing towards the end as to who really "done it" and more as to why they did it. Some of the characters are kind of creepy, but that's okay with me. I would highly recommend this novel to anyone who likes romantic suspense.
The Beginning August 26, 2007 I've read several of the FBI series by Catherine Coulter, unfortunately not in order. The Maze is the book where Savich and Sherlock meet and become a couple. It is entertaining to read in retrospect after knowing them as a married couple. Parts of it are contrived and predictable, but for fans of the series, it is a must-read.
