Really?
I'm a little surprised that there are so many 5 star reviews. This book began with loads of potential, but quickly fizzled out. I don't mind suspending belief, but this book is over the top. I can't even put into words how this book doesn't make sense. Everyone from the profiler, to the tracker, to the serial killer flip flops in character. I hated the profiler in both of her personalities(hard core, wicked smart, bad a$$ FBI agent and simpering, spineless, love-struck mess). The outrageous abilities of the serial killer (medical expert, pilot, woodsman, identity thief, technical expert, computer expert, marksman, explosives expert, blackmailer, crime scene expert etc) was insane. I really didnt understand the role of the Native American tracker. At first the idea of him was really interesting, but that fizzled away too. Also, if you're expecting this book to be set in Denali, (since the subtitle is Passions in the Park) it really isn't. And what little bit it is, there is just barely any description of it. Anyway, I wont be reading the second book. Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that this drudgery of a book is cliffhanger.
