I like Tami Hoag books, and Kill the Messenger was no exception. Couldn't put it down.

Excellent read!
I read a lot of mysteries but haven't read a Tami Hoag for a long time.....I think I got burned out after her first few books......but I happened to pick up Kill The Messenger......I started reading this book at 12:30 PM on Saturday and finished it late Sunday night..and it has 500 pages.....need I say more...I didn't do a thing all weekend but read......I couldn't put it down....she develops her characters so well you feel you know them and she can make you suspect each one at different times in the book.....so many twists...when I finished this one I purchased Prior Bad Acts by Hoag and liked it as well....
