Hostage (Bishop/Special Crimes Unit)

I have been reading Kay Hooper since she was writing romance. Have always liked the Bishop novels. Could hardly put them down. However, Hostage did not hold me in there as did the others.. not sure why. Am awaiting next book, hope it will have more of the thrill(?) as the others.

Kay Hooper has been writing these SCU novels about a branch of the FBI with extra senses. They're well-written, interesting and very believable. Since Haven got added to the mix, they've only improved. I really like her characters. The agents are all truly good people, doing extraordinary things to catch the bad guys. Don't miss these books.

Having two teams in separate investigations didn't allow for Hooper's usual development of the characters. Everything came together well at the end but I don't feel it was up to Hooper's usual great style. It won't put me off reading the next in the series but this one didn't do it for me.

If you like stories about ESP and the psychic world together with a sprinkling of murder mystery, then this is a book to read. The author moves from one scene to another at the right time to build suspense and keep the reader interested. All of the Bishop/SCU/Haven books are very good.
