Outstanding suspense/thrill ride

Gregg Olsen hit the bullseye with A Cold Dark Place. Suspense Magazine.com rated this an editors choice book and featured Gregg as the May Author of the Month. A Cold Dark Place is what suspense/thriller is all about. Gregg has a unique writing style that will keep you gasping for air. Gregg's extensive experience in True Crime has led him to be one of the best suspense/thriller writers out there right now. A Cold Dark Place is one of the top books of 2008.

Fast Paced Suspense You Can't Put Down

When you open this book, be prepared for something like pushing your car to the limits on a winding road! Fast-paced twists and turns all the way to the last page! I can feel Gregg's familiarity with real people in real situations in his well developed, interesting characters; it's easy to keep track of them and the parts they play. And the true-crime, non-fiction, real-life, no-ending ending is exactly what I'd expect and what we'll probably find to be "classic Gregg Olsen" style. "Write on", Gregg!

Another One I couldn't put down

Gregg is a very talented writer. He really has this way of keeping you in suspence. Just when you thought you knew who the killer was of Nick's family there was another twist. I can't wait for the next book to come out. There aren't many auther's that keep you on the edge of your seat like Gregg Olsen does. I would also recommend his other books. Starvation Heights, If Loving you is wrong, Bitter Almonds,Abandon Prayers,The Deep Dark. Need I say more he is an AWSOME WRITER.

More twists than a hangman's noose

A tornado wreaks destruction in eastern Washington State. A killer wraps people around his little finger. A law enforcement officer, her daughter and their friends get caught up in a whirlwind of misrepresentations and lies. This book keeps the reader guessing to the end when it all wraps up in A Cold Dark Place. Don't miss Gregg Olsen's latest thriller.

Characters that breathe on their own

It is generally accepted that fact is more compelling than fiction. But this book proves the exception to the rule. Gregg Olsen has the background of an experienced true crime author and the intimate knowledge of the criminal mind necessary to create characters that breathe on their own. The complex and interwoven plots, between crimes currently being committed and past crimes forgotten by everyone except the detectives that worked the cases, provide a tense and satisfying read that has all the hallmarks of a bestseller.
