Boring and Predictable - By: The Cat Lady, 22 Nov 2008 
After reading "Looking Good Dead" & " Not Dead Enough" I couldn't wait to read another of Perer James's books. What a letdown. Boring, boring, boring. The story dragged on & was totally uninteresting. I kept on reading hoping things would get better & that I had not wasted my money. Unfortunately not.
THRILLING - By: Carl Hughes, 15 Nov 2008 
This is a thriller rather than a horror story, although there are certainly elements of horrorin it. Newspaper reporter Kate Hemingway manages to worm her way into an exhumation, & what she sees when the coffin is opened appals her. She realises that the woman inside the coffin was buried alive - but it seems someone wants the truth covered up. Kate has a winning personality & you root for her throughout. Mr James's characterisation is spot on & he takes pains to make you really see & identify with the characters. The finale is a case of true poetic justice & is expertly handled.
Twilight by Peter James - By: Bookworm, 28 Oct 2008 
This is the 3rd of Peter James's books that I have read (loved Denial & Faith).
The story starts off with the burial of Sally Donaldson but afterwards it seems noises are being heard, coming from her grave! People think they are imagining things but eventually an exhumation order is granted.
Meanwhile we hear about Harvey Swire, an eighteen year old lad with plans to attend medical school & become a doctor. On a bike ride one day, he has an accident & is hit by a car. Suddenly he is watching everything from above & is outside of his own body! He sees his mother who is dead & she tells him "God is very unhappy with you"!
We also hear about a local journalist Kate Hemmingway who wants the story on the exhumation. She manages to witness the event & is horrified to discover that it seems Sally Donaldson was actually buried alive!
The story then flits between Harry & Kate until one day Kate has a car accident herself & is rushed to hospital. She is operated on but there is just one problem - she is still awake but cannot scream, shout or move & there is a certain doctorin attendance named Harvey Swire! She then experiences an out of body experience & sees her dead brother who is trying give her a warning.
I did enjoy this book & I read it really quickly but I wouldn't say it is quite as good as Faith or Denial. I would still recommend it though, & I look forward to reading more books by Peter James, I'm hooked now!
Good, but not his best - By: crime reader, 25 Mar 2008 
I have read a few of Peter James's books & loved them all but I have to say that although I did enjoy this one, I found it a bit slow moving & not as gripping as the others I have read.
It's still a good read & I loved the ending, that was a good twist on the last couple of pages, but I do think that he has written other better novels than this one.
So predictable - By: Henryhound, 16 Mar 2008 
I seem to be the only one that found this book boring & predictable. I only finished it so that I didn't waste my money ! The constant explaining what someone wore & where it came from I found annoying - cut to the chase Mr James. It was so obvious who the villian of the book was I was suprised Kate, as a reporter, didn't work it out straight away
