Suspense
Detectives McCabe and Savage, in the first of this series, are on the hunt for a sick individual, murdering young healthy women and removing their hearts. After they find the body of a young missing girl, they are informed another woman has gone missing already, and the clock starts ticking... they have a week to find her and taking the killer down.

Interesting read, like the characters but would like to see more character development and the partnership between McCabe and Savage... is it sexual, friendly... it’s hard to ascertain.

Well written and gripping, finished in 24 hours.

Gripping, couldnt put it down
I could not put this book down, I love the story and the different time frames, I was nearly always itching to read the next 'past tense chapter hoping to find out more. I like the lead Detective. The characters were well thought up. I did guess whodunnit so it didnt have the full suspense for me but overall a good read. I would agree with others who have stated it is not as good as The Dry but still has it's own merit and worth a read.

Okay so walking into the theater I wasn't sure what to express due to the fact of the past two films not being that great but I personally loved this it was action packed adventure and suspense filled I say two thumbs up but remember that it's PG-13 for a reason so if nonstop action sounds like a problem then you may want to take the kids to another movie however if they really wanna see it and they can handle action then I highly recommend it

Movie Favorite

"Clouzot’s gripping film about a group of men driving a truck full of nitroglycerine to end a mining disaster is, although it could not be more French, one of the great buddy pictures of all time, with a degree of white-knuckle suspense that has never been bettered, before or sense. It is, or could be, an elegy to the French film industry, which in its heyday could produce films of every kind that captured an international audience, and is now pretty much reduced to love stories or French comedies that, with rare exceptions, seldom seem funny to foreigners."

Speak
Dont Say a Word- is a really good suspense thriller.

The plot: Ruthless crook Patrick Koster (Sean Bean) and his partner capture young Jessie Conrad (Skye McCole Bartusiak) and hold her for an unusual ransom. Koster wants Jessie's therapist father, Nathan (Michael Douglas), to somehow coax traumatized teen Elisabeth (Brittany Murphy) into divulging a mysterious code number that will lead the criminals to a hidden jewel worth a fortune. Unfortunately, it may be impossible to convince the delusional Elisabeth to cooperate: she hasn't spoken in 10 years.

Its a really good film, highly recordmend it.

I was expecting scary; biting-my-nails, holding-my-breath, chewing-my-lip scary. Instead, I got something that makes me feel like I need to see a therapist. I didn't completely love this book, as dazed, confused, and freaked out as it's left me. However, I did enjoy the suspense of it, the "what's going to happen next" and the "how could this possibly escalate" feeling. Obviously no one enjoys reading about such topics, but Ketchum kept me hooked with those questions, therefore I was unable to stop. Now, if only I could bleach my brain...

The Room
1408- is a excellent psychological horror movie that is very underrated. It has suspense, thrills, chills, horror, terror, and more.

The plot: Mike Enslin (John Cusack) is a successful author who enjoys worldwide acclaim debunking supernatural phenomena -- before he checks into the Dolphin Hotel, that is. Ignoring the warnings of the hotel manager (Samuel L. Jackson), he learns the meaning of real terror when he spends the night in a reputedly haunted room.

Like i said before it is a excellent movie. It will twist and turn your mind.

I would highly reccordmend this movie.
