A Toss Up Father Michael Joseph Carver is murdered while hearing the late night confession of a murderer. Unknown to the murderer, a young homeless woman was waiting in the shadows of the church to speak with Fr. Carver and witnessed the murderer's exit from the confessional. The woman is Nicola (Nick) Jones who is on the run from a mysterious past and who does not wish to be connected with Fr. Carver's murder. Fr. Carver's twin brother, FBI Special Agent Dane Carver, is working with the local police to find his brothers killer. Dane personally takes Nick into protective custody when it becomes apparent that someone is trying to kill Nick. They discover that the killer is using the scripts of a popular television show to commit the murders. Dane calls in fellow FBI agents, Dillon and Sherlock Savitch to assist him in keeping Nick alive and finding the killer.
This is the first Catherine Coulter book I have read. The story line is good and there are multiple mysteries going on at the same time that kept me interested and guessing until the end. However, the interaction between the weakly built characters was astoundingly trite. The dialogue was embarrassingly silly and amateurish. It remains a toss up as to whether the plot and story line are good enough to offset the characters and the dialogue.
A Very Disappointing Book! After attempting to read The Target a few months ago, I decided not to waste my money on another Coulter mystery. However, because the cover of Eleventh Hour looked interesting and past books were by Coulter were enjoyable reads (The Maze), I bought the book. I was not able to finish it---and I certainly won't inflict this book on a friend! The characters were weak and one dimensional and the dialogue was stilted, silly and unrealistic. Please, Ms. Coulter--re-read your older books and find out what you're missing now!!Absolutely HORRIBLE!!!! The dialogue in this amateurish attempt at a crime thriller is laughable. The characters are flat, the plot predictable, and the dialogue is perfectly tedious. Ms. Coulter's expertise is in historical romance, not in this genre. I would like to ask for my money back on this (audio edition) because it was so horrible. If you want to roll your eyes a lot, check it out from the library. Save your money.
