Suspense
A body is found in the middle of a cornfield in Nebraska. Detective Mackenzie White is on the case. All the men are intimidated by her. She is pretty and young. She is good at thinking outside the box and most of the men are older and are stubborn with their old school police work. Not only does she not have the support of her department, but her family also is a mess and doesn't really have anything to do with her and her boyfriend is a man child that doesn't want to move forward with life or the relationship. She believes this a serial killer so the FBI is called to help. It was a good read. Nothing to write home about. It's a typical murder mystery. I would recommend it to someone who wants a short read or is new to thrillers and murder mysteries.

Hooked from the start
No one is more familiar with Savannah's dark side than homicide detective and native resident Elise Sandburg. She's been haunted for years by her own mysterious past: she was abandoned as a baby in one of the city's ancient cemeteries, and it's rumored that she is the illegitimate daughter of an infamous Savannah root doctor. The local Gullah culture of voodoo and magic is one that few outsiders can understand, least of all Elise's new ...

<strong>Hooked</strong>

From the first chapter I was hooked. It's a great mix of mystery and thriller with it touching on the occult slightly. Anne is a new author for me and certainly one I can't wait to read more of.
The relationship dynamics are so well written from the angst of a strained mother daughter to the new troubled work relationships.
Definitely one of recommend.

Not bad
When I first put this movie on to watch I very nearly almost gave up with it. It starts with an annoyingly long interview with each family member to try and ascertain what happened with millionaire Harlan thrombie, which to be honest I found long winded and boring. The rest of the movie was good though and we learn why and how he died quite early on. The rest of the movie is the culprit trying not to get caught whilst working alongside the detective working on the case, who has absolutely no idea who hired him and why.
All in all an OK movie, not as humorous as I expected though in fact the only real laughable part was Daniel Craig's awful accent. If you like murder mysteries then I'm sure you'll like this.

One Wrong Move
Inside Man- is a intense game of cat and mouse. One wrong move and a hostage gets killed. Who will survive and who will die? Will the hostage get what he wants on time? All of these question and more, this movie is a intense roller-coaster. Twist and turns thought it until the very end. You expect one thing to happen, than boom anethor thing happens. Expect the unexpected.

The plot: DescriptionA tough detective (Denzel Washington) matches wits with a cunning bank robber (Clive Owen), as a tense hostage crisis is unfolding. Into the volatile situation comes a woman named Madaline (Jodie Foster), a mysterious power broker who has a hidden agenda and threatens to push a tense situation past the breaking point.

The cast is great, the suspense, the thrills, the drama, the action.

Inside man is a great heist movie.
